We [2 adults, 3 kids] had an amazing time doing a park hopper challenge [4 parks ] thanks to your tips on April 26th. We rode every ride we wanted except Gardians because it was out of service for most of the day. We were also able to eat at two restaurants, do a few photo ops, and take plenty of breaks [even an afternoon nap]. We even managed to loop back to Hollywood Studios for a 2nd chance at getting on a ride. The kids didnt want to do rollercosters with big drops so we'll save those for next time. Thank you very much, I would have been so lost without your Genie+ videos. I felt like a pro the whole day. Thanks to your tip (right most lane) we were first in line at Animal Kingdom even though there were hundreds of people there before us for early entry. Animal Kingdom 7:15-8:30AM - Avatar Flight of Passage [Early Entry, 5 min Standby ] - Na'vi River Journey [10 min Standby] Hollywood Studios: 9:00 - 4:10 - Millenium Falcon: Smugglers Run [30 min Standby] - Star Tours [20 min Standby] - Slinky dog [Genie+】 - Mickey & Minnie Runaway Railway [Genie+】 EPCOT: 4:20 - 07:30 - Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure [Genie+】 - Gardians of Galaxy [ILL] has been out of service since the morning, have to miss our reservation - Test Track [Genie+】 [goes out of service, we wait until it is repaired ] Hollywood Studios: 8:00 - 9:10PM - Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance [ILL Redemption, originally had a 3:20PM reservation] - Genie+ Reservation to Twilight Zone disappears Magic Kingdom: 9:40 - 11:00 PM - Space Mountain [Genie+】 - Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin [Genie+】
Rob, you are the GOAT. Thanks to your videos we were able to have a blast with Genie+ last week. We rode everything that we physically could...and our bodies gave out far earlier than yours in this video! Word of caution to the readers: virtual queues are great because they are free, but you spend a LOT of time on your feet. Those lines can get really long!
Our recent trip to Disney was a success! In 2 days, we did 4 parks and got to ride everything that was on our list because of your advice on all the other videos. Thank you so much! One thing I don't recall being mentioned in your other videos that I believe happened to us, is that if you modify the last lightning lane reservation to a different time you do have to wait another hour or 2 to book the next ride. That happened to us in Animal Kingdom. I was 5 minutes away from booking our next lightning lane when I modified the time for the most recent lightning lane booked, and we had to wait another hour. No big deal, but now I know to wait to book the next lightning lane before modifying the most recent lightning lane reservation. On Thursday we went to Epcot, and then to Hollywood studios. I got in the Guardians of the galaxy ride VQ. I was told that even if you can't make it to that ride at the scheduled time not to cancel the VQ and just go whenever since the cast members aren't as strict with this ride like the other VQ. Then I purchased an ILL for Rise of the Resistance. On the second day, I had a park reservation for Magic Kingdom and got on the VQ for Tron. Then, we purchased and ILL for Avatar Flight of Passage. I thought this information might be helpful to some who want to ride the most popular rides but can't travel for too long.
Great tips as always. Thanks for all the tips throughout the years. Was able to do all these rides with Genie in a single day last week: - Navi - Safari - Everest - Frozen - Remy - Test track - Tower of Terror - Peter Pan - and many more immediate filler rides. Insane genie value because of all your videos
You are the GENIE GOAT!!! I just went to Disney last week and your videos helped my family of 8 ride every single ride in magic kingdom one day! We definitely could’ve used this video earlier because we did an EPCOT and Hollywood Studios park hopper on a Saturday but we were still able to do all of the rides we wanted to do!
How did you make this happen and what are ages of your kids? We’re taking our 7 & 9 yr old in 3 days and I’m sooooo lost!!! I haven’t been to Disney since our oldest was 3 and he’s 14 now! So much has changed. We live just north of Orlando but prices are just too absurd to go on a normal basis!
@@RiouxGrandz274 The most important things for us was getting the genie+ and booking our virtual queue and first lightening lane right at 7 AM. We also rope dropped both days and that was key. For magic kingdom we got lightening lane for Peter Pan and rope dropped jungle cruise. For our park hopper at EPCOT we got lightening lane for frozen and rope dropped Remi’s. Just make sure you always have a lightening lane booked and play the slots often. I was SHOCKED at how many times we cut hours out of our wait time with the genie slots. Also, if you have a large party, don’t be afraid to split it in half. I would suggest try starting with the whole party together but if it’s really busy splitting up is a huge help. We had a lot of success splitting 4 and 4 and we got really close return times often. Also, make sure you write out your must do rides and prioritize those for the lightening lane. Finally, just do your best to enjoy yourself. Things will go wrong but don’t let speed bumps derail your trip, just move along to the next attraction and enjoy it!
This is such an awesome guide! I feel like sometimes Animal Kingdom is so overshadowed by the other parks. It's a really nice park to start off on and by the time you end your night, you'll be saying "Oh wow Hollywood Studios was awesome BUT WOW that safari this morning was friggin amazing!" Animal Kingdom also has the best food in my opinion.
Thank you so much for doing all of this! You are definitely a genie master teaching us everything we need to know. You are always making me smile and thanks to your advice i am much more confident that i will have a great visit following your tips, going for the first time to Disneyworld!
Awesome tips as always! Just went to the parks 2 weeks ago with my mom and we did MK and HS with genie plus (and your tips of course). We did everything we wanted and even repeated a lot of things we liked most! Thank you so much for your videos! Greetings from Brazil!
Great video. A little sad to see the gorillas, as Pongo apparently just died this week. Keep up the amazing work. Your videos are helping me plan my visit at the end of June.
I found your videos a week ago! I did a lot of these things 2 years ago last time I was there tinkering with Genie+. Happy to now be able to explain to my wife that I am playing the genie slots hahaha. Before I had no words to describe the madness. Also happy they have a modify feature now. Your videos are amazing and I am so excited to get to the parks and play the genie slots - I get almost as much dopamine from that as the rides. 39 more days!
Your videos are always so informative! I learned all I know about genie+ from you before my trip last year. This year we are park hopping and it’s like you read my mind and knew I needed this video! Thank you❤
Just got back from visiting Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom, we stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge Jambo House, all I say is thank-you for your videos i took the time to study them and repeat certain videos especially on how Genie+ plus works and best ways to use it, I was so lost at first 🤯but after hearing your tips nad tricks we got on all the rides and started both parks after parks opened and Magic Kingdom we definitely did a late start at 3pm and still rode many rides, thanks again guys for these amazing videos keep em coming 🙌
This was soooo helpful. Thanks so much! I’d really love a video on transportation. Specifically, which type of free transportation is best to take between each of the parks.
Very useful tips as always. So nice to meet you guys at magic kingdom a couple of weeks ago, Im back in Sweden now watching these videos with my daughter :)
Thanks again for another timely video Rob. Since we are heading back to do an after hours event at the Magic Kingdom, we decided to grab a couple park hopper passes for the other parks. Your info was once again very helpful. Maybe, just maybe we'll run into you and Eric. And BTW, I am the King of just missing the last bus out. 😁
Love all of your videos! Helping us plan an unforgettable vacation this summer. Do the tips work the same without Genie plus? Looking to make the most out of park hopper but not purchasing Genie plus.
Answers from any genie plus pros welcome! Our first day we are planning on AK first followed by HS Can I book slinky dog dash first thing in the morning for an evening time? And then the following bookings at AK once I am eligible to book another lightning lane? Example: 7:00 am Slinky Dog (around 8pm) 11:00am Everest at earliest possible time Thanks in advance!
Hi Rob! Your videos are so informative and easy to follow! My Dad and I will be going to WDW for the first time. Do you recommend getting a Magic Band or will be okay without them?
Hello! Thanks so much for watching - I’m glad you have found our videos helpful. MagicBands are definitely not required for anything other than interacting with the golden statues or playing certain games like the bounty hunter game in Galaxy’s Edge. You can do everything else with a complimentary park ticket, WDW hotel key card or even your watch or phone if it is compatible with Magic Mobile. I love having MagicBands, but if you don’t think you’ll visit multiple times, it may not be worth the investment. Hope that helps!
My family and I are going for the first time in September l. It will be myself, my hubby, our 13yr old son, and our 2yr old son. Can you do a video on using the new lightening lane and organizing your day to go in order with the parks? I want to use rope drop as well. We have 5 days- one in each park then either a resort day or a park hoping day. We have park hopper on all tickets. Of course we’d like to watch as many shows and ride as many rides as possible
If I'm starting at DAK, then hopping to HS, what would be your first genie plus LL? Slinky dog is a priority at HS. Safari and Navi are priorities are at DAK. But I know if I book Slinky, then I have to wait two hours after HS park opening to book my next LL. What would your plan be?? Thanks!
Hey so are park hopper restrictions gone in terms of time you can enter? I’m there in June and staying at beach club. So I want to do Epcot early a bunch but don’t want to stay until 2pm every time.
I have a question. Let's say I go to hollywood studios with a friend and I buy us both the genie plus and the ILL for rise. Later I have a friend that decides she wants to come after I bought the genie plus for me and my other friend. If she buys her own genie plus and we are linked on the app, can I still book the lightning lanes for all 3 of us?
I got a VQ for guardians and canceled it because it was too early. I then booked it again at 1 when I was sitting on the grass in front it. So, it did let me do it twice. I think you said you couldn't do that for tron. But, maybe you can like I did for guardians.
Yes - we always show the time that we got the ride and how long we took because sometimes we play off and on, so the time we started playing the slots is irrelevant. I think I did screw up on our first ride in this video and show the time we started playing the slots instead of the time we booked it. Pretty sure it should have been 7:01 or 7:02. That likely added to the confusion since that was the first one we showed.
Now that makes way more sense! No wonder I love these videos so much. I really do believe a two park Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom day would be my perfect WDW experience!
Hi Rob.. you said the show in the tree of life depends of the day.. if the night doesnt come early. The show wont happen.... So witch season is easy to see the show? In the winter? And what time it occur? The Last time ive gone there. There was no show in the tree of life. It was in november 2022 Greetins from Brazil..🎉😊
Great video love the content wanted to know if u could help as you know the parks very well I’m due to arrive at Disney world on the 15th of may front the united kindom for 4 nights we are doing all the parks I’ve made up a schedule off how to do the parks what days when red too know your input on how u would do them to get all the best rides so wensday when we arrive in the afternoon we will head to Epcot via skyliner as we are staying at pop century then Thursday magic kingdom Friday animal kingdom Saturday Hollywood Studios then Sunday our flight home is in the evening we will go back to Epcot early doors and stay half day does this sound like a good plan thank you
Yes - check out our “Practically Perfect Day” series of videos. We go over each park and share tips for enjoying everything in a more relaxed way without all the crisscrossing. Thanks for watching! 😃
Hi Elizabeth - I just noticed that you gave us this Super Thanks - that was so kind of you! 😊 I hope our videos are helping you have a magical time at Disney World. 🎉
@@EarScouts We head that way May 25-30! Your videos have helped me understand rope drop and Genie+. But, as I'm someone who can get a little too focused on the task at hand, I really appreciate your reminders to slow down and ENJOY the time in the parks too! :)
I went to Epcot on Wednesday, 05.08.24 & had an amazing time & had some delicious food. However, when I tried to use my Disney Genie+ to schedule my rides for the next park, which was Magic Kingdom, it didn't work. It kept telling me it doesn't apply to anyone in my party & I had to purchase it "Again", to be able to use it at Magic Kingdom. (I refused to pay for it again). I already spent sooo much money, it wasn't part of my budget to pay for something I already thought was accounted for 😞!!
Hi Jade! This is very strange. Is it possible you purchased the version of Genie Plus that was only for Epcot? Now you have to pay for the option for multiple parks which tends to be the same price as Magic Kingdom, but more expensive than the other parks. Either way, I’m sorry to hear that you were unable to use it as you planned in Magic Kingdom. That is a bummer. 😕
@EarScouts Thank you so much for your prompt response 🥰. That may be the case. I thought I did everything correctly. I didn't realize there was a Multi Genie+ option. Next time I will be more careful & take my time when making my purchase. Have a very Blessed & Amazing Day 🙏🏽📯🌷🕊!!
You said anyone can book tron at 7AM but to book a virtual queue at 7 AM at tron we need to have a valid admission for Magic kingdom not everyone can do it , so that needs to be your first park of that day if you are riding tron before you can park hop.
I have good news - that used to be how it worked, but now they let you book a VQ no matter where you start. This change came when all-day park hopping resumed.
@@EarScouts thank you :) I have a question does that mean if we are trying on two devices we can book 2 virtual queues one for tron and one for guardian of galaxy at 7 am ?
Thanks as usual Rob. Debating doing something this summer to use some airline miles before they expire at end of august but I find that I’m always slammed by the heat and humidity more than I expect, and my plans get squashed. I also want to wait for Tianna AND country bears to open before I do MK again. Still , in the meantime, can park hop with you and Erik from the air conditioned comfort of my living room and always count on both an exciting AND relaxing time. You’re the best!
@@EarScouts lots of new strategies for you to explore! I spend months devouring the Disney app along with your videos and plan each day though in Florida heat my 76 year old body can’t always do what my 76 years young imagination thinks it can ! I don’t know if I mentioned my 5 days in Disneyland and bucket list cross country train trip from Los Angeles to Philadelphia went great in the lower humidity. Six experience redemption passes on Easter( three golden)really was a trip highlight. Thanks for taking the time to respond. It’s so appreciated!
You can use it more than twice. I watched these videos about tips and used Genie Plus for the first time a few weeks ago and used 4 to five lightening lanes a day. You really do have to prioritize the popular rides first because those lightening lanes run out.
We did - it’s right here: No Genie? No Problem! How to Do Everything at Animal Kingdom Without Fancy Perks at Disney World ruclips.net/video/LLJlO8m6WPg/видео.html Hope you enjoy it!

Awesome tips, as always! Thorough and practical advice. Best on RUclips!
Thanks so much! 😃
Super video. Glad to see more Erik cameos!
Thanks, Jackie! He’s coming out of hiding more often these days. 😅
Totally agree!
Great tips as always. Thanks for all the tips throughout the years. Was able to do all these rides with Genie in a single day last week:
- Navi
- Safari
- Everest
- Frozen
- Remy
- Test track
- Tower of Terror
- Peter Pan
- and many more immediate filler rides.
Insane genie value because of all your videos
Thank you for letting me interrupt your time off at Fort Wilderness. You keep me excited about Disney even when I’m not there. Appreciated it😊!

We are here now, you've been instrumental in our successes. Thank you xxx
You are really super, informative and super likeable, hats off!
Again with your mind-reading, I needed this video for the first time ever😂
25:27 was so nice to meet you guys!!! Thank you again for all the tips and the kindness!! Obrigado!!
I’m so happy for you two that you managed to ride Everest without a 30 minute detour. 🤣
Great callback lol
😂🤣😂 - I was a little nervous as we boarded. 😅
Such a jam packed day. So fun! Loving Erick and your ears. 🥰

Your strategy videos are my favourites, I really like learning from you. Thanks Rob and Erick it is really nice seeing both of you in the videos.
Awesome tips as always! Just went to the parks 2 weeks ago with my mom and we did MK and HS with genie plus (and your tips of course). We did everything we wanted and even repeated a lot of things we liked most! Thank you so much for your videos! Greetings from Brazil!
Great video. A little sad to see the gorillas, as Pongo apparently just died this week. Keep up the amazing work. Your videos are helping me plan my visit at the end of June.
I hadn’t heard about that - such sad news. 😔
I found your videos a week ago! I did a lot of these things 2 years ago last time I was there tinkering with Genie+. Happy to now be able to explain to my wife that I am playing the genie slots hahaha. Before I had no words to describe the madness. Also happy they have a modify feature now. Your videos are amazing and I am so excited to get to the parks and play the genie slots - I get almost as much dopamine from that as the rides. 39 more days!
Noticed something while practicing genie slots for upcoming trip - look at HS - tower, toy story mania, and slinky right at 1:17 pm est!!! Jackpot
Great video! Packed with so much info, I’ll need to watch it again! Loved all your music choices-spot on! 🫶🏼
Your videos are always so informative! I learned all I know about genie+ from you before my trip last year. This year we are park hopping and it’s like you read my mind and knew I needed this video! Thank you❤
Love your videos, I always check them out every time I plan to go to the parks.
Rob, the transitions during the montage were especially well done - my favorite is the transition from Haunted Mansion to Tron…excellent work!
Headed there this Saturday and this video will come in handy on our extra park day! Thank you!
Just got back from visiting Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom, we stay at Animal Kingdom Lodge Jambo House, all I say is thank-you for your videos i took the time to study them and repeat certain videos especially on how Genie+ plus works and best ways to use it, I was so lost at first 🤯but after hearing your tips nad tricks we got on all the rides and started both parks after parks opened and Magic Kingdom we definitely did a late start at 3pm and still rode many rides, thanks again guys for these amazing videos keep em coming 🙌
Needed this exact video for our upcoming trip! Super helpful and entertaining as always. 👍🏻
Well done!
Yay! Just the video I needed!
Hope you enjoy it and find some helpful info! Thanks for watching. 😃
We are heading back next month and can’t wait to try your new strategies! Hope to run into this trip! Love your videos, appreciate all you two do! ❤❤
Enjoy watching your videos! I’m in preparation for an upcoming trip.
This was soooo helpful. Thanks so much! I’d really love a video on transportation. Specifically, which type of free transportation is best to take between each of the parks.
Very useful tips as always. So nice to meet you guys at magic kingdom a couple of weeks ago, Im back in Sweden now watching these videos with my daughter :)
So glad to see this video thanks for all the great info. Love you guys.
Love this! Planning on hopping for the first time and this was super helpful.what are your favorite park combos?
I like your trip tic advice on the Disney parks for out of towners like me
Thanks again for another timely video Rob. Since we are heading back to do an after hours event at the Magic Kingdom, we decided to grab a couple park hopper passes for the other parks. Your info was once again very helpful. Maybe, just maybe we'll run into you and Eric. And BTW, I am the King of just missing the last bus out. 😁
Great timing 🎉 my sister and I are planning a sisters trip for only 2 days at the end of Aug and we are going to be doing two parks each day. TY ❤️
Love all of your videos! Helping us plan an unforgettable vacation this summer. Do the tips work the same without Genie plus? Looking to make the most out of park hopper but not purchasing Genie plus.
Great video! So many awesome tips
The last two times we tried to get Navi river it was down at rope drop - hoping next week it works!
Love the videos always!
Wow you should start a paid class for all Genie Plus scenarios lol 😂
We did one once, but making videos is more fun. 😅
Answers from any genie plus pros welcome!
Our first day we are planning on AK first followed by HS
Can I book slinky dog dash first thing in the morning for an evening time? And then the following bookings at AK once I am eligible to book another lightning lane?
Example:
7:00 am Slinky Dog (around 8pm)
11:00am Everest at earliest possible time
Thanks in advance!
Thank you, awesome video guys
Hi Rob! Your videos are so informative and easy to follow! My Dad and I will be going to WDW for the first time. Do you recommend getting a Magic Band or will be okay without them?
Hello! Thanks so much for watching - I’m glad you have found our videos helpful. MagicBands are definitely not required for anything other than interacting with the golden statues or playing certain games like the bounty hunter game in Galaxy’s Edge. You can do everything else with a complimentary park ticket, WDW hotel key card or even your watch or phone if it is compatible with Magic Mobile. I love having MagicBands, but if you don’t think you’ll visit multiple times, it may not be worth the investment. Hope that helps!
My family and I are going for the first time in September l. It will be myself, my hubby, our 13yr old son, and our 2yr old son. Can you do a video on using the new lightening lane and organizing your day to go in order with the parks? I want to use rope drop as well. We have 5 days- one in each park then either a resort day or a park hoping day. We have park hopper on all tickets. Of course we’d like to watch as many shows and ride as many rides as possible
Youre the master of genie.
Hope you can make a strategy park hopper animal and epcot :) in the future.
Thanks for all the tips
If I'm starting at DAK, then hopping to HS, what would be your first genie plus LL? Slinky dog is a priority at HS. Safari and Navi are priorities are at DAK. But I know if I book Slinky, then I have to wait two hours after HS park opening to book my next LL. What would your plan be?? Thanks!
Excellent!
Can’t wait to watch
Hope you enjoy it! 😃
Hey so are park hopper restrictions gone in terms of time you can enter? I’m there in June and staying at beach club. So I want to do Epcot early a bunch but don’t want to stay until 2pm every time.
I have a question. Let's say I go to hollywood studios with a friend and I buy us both the genie plus and the ILL for rise. Later I have a friend that decides she wants to come after I bought the genie plus for me and my other friend. If she buys her own genie plus and we are linked on the app, can I still book the lightning lanes for all 3 of us?
I got a VQ for guardians and canceled it because it was too early. I then booked it again at 1 when I was sitting on the grass in front it. So, it did let me do it twice. I think you said you couldn't do that for tron. But, maybe you can like I did for guardians.
Will you be doing an update for this with the new lightening lane system? 😊
I've left my 7am boarding grouo. used leave boarding group button to go again for a tron VQ at 1pm
Really?! That’s so good to know. I wasn’t aware you could do that. Thanks for the info.
So, can I book a ride for a different park while using it at my rope dropped park...until it opens?
Going for three days May 20-22. One day Animal Kingdom AM, Hollywood Studios Afternoon. One day Magic Kingdom, the other Epcot
How did this line up go for you? I’m going for 2 days and trying to figure out which parks to do.
Pretty remarkable that you booked Pooh at 6:24pm and got a return time of 6:25pm after playing the slots for 9 minutes. You must have a DeLorean!
I thought the same but then understood that they played for 9 minutes starting at 6:15 and finally at 6:24 they got return time of 6:25.
Yes - we always show the time that we got the ride and how long we took because sometimes we play off and on, so the time we started playing the slots is irrelevant. I think I did screw up on our first ride in this video and show the time we started playing the slots instead of the time we booked it. Pretty sure it should have been 7:01 or 7:02. That likely added to the confusion since that was the first one we showed.
Now that makes way more sense! No wonder I love these videos so much. I really do believe a two park Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom day would be my perfect WDW experience!
Hi Rob.. you said the show in the tree of life depends of the day.. if the night doesnt come early. The show wont happen....
So witch season is easy to see the show? In the winter?
And what time it occur?
The Last time ive gone there. There was no show in the tree of life. It was in november 2022
Greetins from Brazil..🎉😊
Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single pass is what this is called now, right? Do you have an updated photo?
Hey Rob what are some good tips on sea world are Bush Gardens
Great video love the content wanted to know if u could help as you know the parks very well I’m due to arrive at Disney world on the 15th of may front the united kindom for 4 nights we are doing all the parks I’ve made up a schedule off how to do the parks what days when red too know your input on how u would do them to get all the best rides so wensday when we arrive in the afternoon we will head to Epcot via skyliner as we are staying at pop century then Thursday magic kingdom Friday animal kingdom Saturday Hollywood Studios then Sunday our flight home is in the evening we will go back to Epcot early doors and stay half day does this sound like a good plan thank you
Can I book an ILL for a park I am not in but still use genie + for the park I am in. For example, book ILL for tron but keep using genie + in Epcot.
Is there a strategy for using Genie+ which doesn’t require crisscrossing the park to use it?
Yes - check out our “Practically Perfect Day” series of videos. We go over each park and share tips for enjoying everything in a more relaxed way without all the crisscrossing. Thanks for watching! 😃
Thanks!
Hi Elizabeth - I just noticed that you gave us this Super Thanks - that was so kind of you! 😊 I hope our videos are helping you have a magical time at Disney World. 🎉
@@EarScouts We head that way May 25-30! Your videos have helped me understand rope drop and Genie+. But, as I'm someone who can get a little too focused on the task at hand, I really appreciate your reminders to slow down and ENJOY the time in the parks too! :)
if you do park hop with animal kingdom and hollywood stdios would you recommend buying an ill for avatar
I went to Epcot on Wednesday, 05.08.24 & had an amazing time & had some delicious food. However, when I tried to use my Disney Genie+ to schedule my rides for the next park, which was Magic Kingdom, it didn't work. It kept telling me it doesn't apply to anyone in my party & I had to purchase it "Again", to be able to use it at Magic Kingdom. (I refused to pay for it again). I already spent sooo much money, it wasn't part of my budget to pay for something I already thought was accounted for 😞!!
Hi Jade! This is very strange. Is it possible you purchased the version of Genie Plus that was only for Epcot? Now you have to pay for the option for multiple parks which tends to be the same price as Magic Kingdom, but more expensive than the other parks. Either way, I’m sorry to hear that you were unable to use it as you planned in Magic Kingdom. That is a bummer. 😕
@EarScouts Thank you so much for your prompt response 🥰. That may be the case. I thought I did everything correctly. I didn't realize there was a Multi Genie+ option. Next time I will be more careful & take my time when making my purchase. Have a very Blessed & Amazing Day 🙏🏽📯🌷🕊!!
Any lighting lane for the Disney Walter parks
The GOATS
You said anyone can book tron at 7AM but to book a virtual queue at 7 AM at tron we need to have a valid admission for Magic kingdom not everyone can do it , so that needs to be your first park of that day if you are riding tron before you can park hop.
I have good news - that used to be how it worked, but now they let you book a VQ no matter where you start. This change came when all-day park hopping resumed.
@@EarScouts thank you :) I have a question does that mean if we are trying on two devices we can book 2 virtual queues one for tron and one for guardian of galaxy at 7 am ?
Thanks as usual Rob. Debating doing something this summer to use some airline miles before they expire at end of august but I find that I’m always slammed by the heat and humidity more than I expect, and my plans get squashed. I also want to wait for Tianna AND country bears to open before I do MK again. Still , in the meantime, can park hop with you and Erik from the air conditioned comfort of my living room and always count on both an exciting AND relaxing time. You’re the best!
Hey Carol! Keep your eye on the news - I think there’s a very good chance that one (if not both) will be open by August 1. 🤞
@@EarScouts lots of new strategies for you to explore! I spend months devouring the Disney app along with your videos and plan each day though in Florida heat my 76 year old body can’t always do what my 76 years young imagination thinks it can ! I don’t know if I mentioned my 5 days in Disneyland and bucket list cross country train trip from Los Angeles to Philadelphia went great in the lower humidity. Six experience redemption passes on Easter( three golden)really was a trip highlight. Thanks for taking the time to respond. It’s so appreciated!
Can u park hop 4 parks in 1 day of only 2?
Did you hear Jhony deep is coming back Disney land dress up as captain jack sperail
Ride the white Walter rapid ride on very hot day at animal kingdom
I cant believe Disney stopped the fast pass. This seems so complicated and you can only skip 2 attractions? Thats shocking
You can use it more than twice. I watched these videos about tips and used Genie Plus for the first time a few weeks ago and used 4 to five lightening lanes a day. You really do have to prioritize the popular rides first because those lightening lanes run out.
Please do a no genie park visit for animal kingdom🙏
We did - it’s right here: No Genie? No Problem! How to Do Everything at Animal Kingdom Without Fancy Perks at Disney World
