The service rolled out at both Disneyland and Disney World in late 2024, providing park guests with the option to skip the line at popular rides without needing to schedule a return time — at a hefty price. And now, the purchase window for Lightning Lane Premier Pass at Disneyland is changing.

Beginning February 25th, 2025, Disneyland visitors will be able to purchase Lightning Lane Premier Pass 7 days in advance of their park visit — which is currently the same as Disney World. Previously, those wishing to purchase Premier Pass for Disneyland were only able to do so up to 2 days before their visit.

Disney also shared that guests visiting with a Walt Disney Travel Company package can purchase Lightning Lane Premier Pass when they receive their park tickets 3 days in advance of their arrival.

As a refresher, Disney Genie+ has become Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Individual Lightning Lanes have become Lightning Lane Single Pass. On October 23rd, 2024, a NEW third option, the all-inclusive Lightning Lane Premier Pass made its debut.

This inclusive option grants one-time entry to each available Lightning Lane experience in both of the Disneyland Resort theme parks for one price, eliminating the need to monitor Lightning Lane availability and make new Lighting Lane reservations throughout the day, and granting the ability to simply show up at an attraction and enter the Lightning Lane (as opposed to booking a specific time).
