![]() I hit the Little Mermaid, Dumbo, Barnstormer and Teacups back-to-back. I grabbed Pirates for 10:15-11:15 and planned to tackle as many Fantasyland and Tomorrowland attractions as I could that were walk-ons before my Pirates return window was called. ![]() The posted wait for standby was 35 minutes.Īs soon as I scanned into the attraction with my magic band, I went right into the My Disney Experience app to grab my next Genie+ Lightning Lane return window. It was time for my first Genie+ Lightning Lane return window of the day! I scanned into Peter Pan at 9:18am and was on in just 3 minutes. This attraction was a walk-on and after the pre-show I was on the ride at 9:06am. But I was able to get in line for Haunted Mansion right as they dropped the ropes over there. Haunted Mansion didn’t open until 9am (it is NOT one of the early theme park entry attractions). Pooh was a walk-on, I was on at 8:51 and off in just a few minutes and then headed over to Haunted Mansion which is right next to Peter Pan. This would also be a great time to tackle Space Mountain if that was on your list. If I didn’t have an early Peter Pan Genie+ return time, I would have headed to Peter Pan instead. I try to stay in one general area when I make my way around the parks. Next I walked right next door to ride Pooh. I jumped right into the Mine Train queue and was on the ride in just 12 minutes! The posted wait time was already at 50 minutes when I exited the attraction. Right at 8:30 am, the ropes were dropped for resort guests and we were able to head to our first attraction. It is SO IMPORTANT that you arrive early to the parks if you want to rope drop a big ticket attraction. Here’s what those crowds looked like when I arrived: My plan was to rope drop Mine Train so that I could knock that attraction out EARLY and not have to pay for it later as an Individual Lightning Lane attraction selection. I scanned into the park and headed directly to the Early Theme Park Entry verification area (there is plenty of signage to find this).Ī cast member scanned my MagicBand to confirm I was a Disney Resort guest and I was able to head to the ropes closest to Mine Train. Just before 8:00am I approached the entrance and jumped into the shortest line I saw - which happened to be the Annual Passholder line. I was staying at Bay Lake Tower for this quick trip which made transportation to the Magic Kingdom as simple as could be! I chose to take the Magic Kingdom walking path vs the resort monorail to save time and ensure I made it to the Magic Kingdom turnstiles as early as possible. I finished getting ready, dropped my suitcase at the car and then was on my way! I then set an alarm on my phone for 6:58am to ensure that I was ready at 7:00 am to make my first Disney Genie+ selection.ħ:00 am arrived and I grabbed Peter Pan’s flight for my FIRST Disney Genie+ return window from 9:10 am – 10:10 am. I woke up right around 6:30 am and was excited to update my My Disney Experience app to see the new Disney Genie and Disney Genie+! Updating my app was simple and I then purchased Disney Genie+ for $15 (+ tax, total was $15.98) to add to my annual pass for the day. Stay tuned for those!Īlright, lets dive in! Magic Kingdom Park Day | Tuesday, October 19 ![]() In future posts I will deep dive into park strategies utilizing Disney Genie+ at all 4 parks.
