Disney4me Posted October 23, 2024 Report Share Posted October 23, 2024 It’s a BIG day in Disneyland Resort! Disneyland Today (October 23rd), Disney is launching its new Lightning Lane Premier Pass service on the West Coast (before it launches in Disney World next week), and we’re here to try it out. Is this new offering for skipping the long lines worth the cost? We’re about to find out. What IS Lightning Lane Premier Pass? Before we dive into our experience today, let’s talk about the new service. Lightning Lane Premier Pass is a “luxury” style offering where you pay to access ALL the Lightning Lanes in Disneyland and Disney California Adventure for one day. With your purchase, you get access to each Lightning Lane one time, including every attraction on the Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass lists. Lightning Lane entrance The big kicker is that Premier Pass costs $400 per person per day. (Hence why we called it a “luxury” type offering.) Through December 31st, 2024, that price will remain the same. Starting in 2025, price will vary by date but will remain in the $300-$400 per person, per day range. Lightning Lanes With Premier Pass, you’ll be able to skip the process of booking your Lightning Lanes throughout the day and scheduling return times. Instead, you just show up to the Lightning Lane entrance and scan in at whatever time is convenient for you. So, let’s test it out! Why are we rope dropping Disneyland, you may ask?

Here, we headed to Galaxy’s Edge first to see how it works. When we reached Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, we opened the app and selected the attraction from the list of available Premier Pass attractions. ©Disney … which in turn redeemed our pass for the simulator attraction. ©Disney Following our ride, Smugglers Run was “Redeemed” and is now unavailable to be selected a second time. ©Disney Issues You May Encounter Be forewarned that while Premier Pass is expensive, the actual process when you arrive at the attraction is the same.
