Disney has announced a up-to-date way to skip the lines at its parks. However, depending on where you go and when, you may have to spend upwards of $400 per day per person to take advantage of the up-to-date Lightning Lane Premier Pass.
on Wednesday, Disney announced plans to launch a up-to-date Lightning Lane tier, a pre-existing program that allows visitors to pay extra to skip the lines at certain attractions at Disney World and Disneyland. Previously, Lightning Lane Multi Passes, which allowed you to skip the queue on multiple journeys, costs $32 a day per person, although the price may boost for various reasons. These passes forced guests to select an arrival time to “skip the line,” which could cause problems if they were delayed. The newly announced skip-the-line tier, Premier Pass, eliminates this restriction, but at a high price.
As he noticed GameSpotup-to-date Premier Pass – available later this month –will cost up to $450 per person per day at Disney World. Price varies depending on the park and when you visit, with Disney saying the highest prices can be found on “a limited number of days during peak travel periods.”
Here are the prices for each park, but keep in mind that you still need to purchase a park ticket, and at Disney World, only those staying at on-property Disney World hotels will be eligible to purchase the up-to-date, limited-edition passes.
- Disney’s Animal Kingdom: $129 to $199
- EPCOT: $169 to $249
- Disney’s Hollywood Studios: $269 to $349
- Magic Kingdom: $329 to $449
Meanwhile in Disneylandthrough December 31, a Premier Pass will cost $400 per person. In 2025, the pass will drop to $300-$400 per day per person, depending on dates visited.
In 2023 said Disney CEO Bob Iger that the huge company was “too aggressive” when it came to raising prices on the parks and wanted to make them more “affordable.” This doesn’t seem like a good way. And of course, you can argue that people don’t do this need buy these passes that they can just wait in line, but the lines to ride can be quite long and the waiting sucks. Besides, the biggest attraction of Disney World and Disneyland are the rides! And increasing the cost of actually using them seems antithetical to making parks more accessible to more people.
