I’m in the same boat. I LOVE TP and will never go to these parks without it. However, if you don’t tell someone there’s an issue then they don’t know what to fix.
I’ve always considered Genie+ to be something I’ll use in conjunction with a personalized TP - the same as I did with FastPass. Until I see something different, I’m treating my Genie+ / WDW planning just like how I did when FPP/Maxpass used to operate. I’ll have a TP and a strong outline of my morning. Then I’ll have a TP to help guide me through the park the rest of the day, based on standby queues, picking up whichever G+ selections I can along the way.
I hate to sound like a broken record, but the real issue isn’t the program / app. It’s that they are charging for it. If this was free we’d all be hyped to play with it.
So, I am not sure I am understanding this correctly. Lets say I have a LL reservation for Big Thunder at 8am, use it at 8:15. Can I then get another LL reservation or do I need to wait until 10am? The faq seems to indicate as soon as you use one, you can grab another. So theoretically in my above scenario I could grab an 8:30 for a ride and potentially keep doing this all day and end up using 10-12 LL at MK in a full day.
I was worried you could only get a new LL reservation every two hours. I am correct with my above logic?
Yes you described this correctly. You can get another LL as soon as you tap into the existing one. The 2 hour window comes into play only if when you get your reservation, it is only available for a time slot greater than 2 hours away.
Thanks Jeff. One follow up. If you get a reservation more than 2 hours from now: lets say it is 9am and I grab a 1pm Splash Mtn. At 11am can I get another LL and hold two at the same time?
I think it’s kind of garbage to have to buy 4 genie+ passes for a family with varying heights, how are you going to lightning lane with rider switch for example? What do you do with the rider who can’t even go on the higher height requirement ride? Can I buy just 2 genie+ passes and trade who wears the bands?
The whole point of 2 at a time was to help with this. I could get a pass to meet mickey for the little kids and a pass to ride big thunder for the adults.
Yeah, I’m wondering about these logistics too with a family of three little kids. I want to know if we can rider switch with the ILL purchased rides… Does someone get to ride twice or is someone riding alone?
Yeah I just looked it up and there are 15 rides that older child can ride, but younger can not. Hoping to hear some feedback from the early users before our trip.
Do we know if you’ll have to pay for G+ to use the Individual Attraction Selection?
With my TP I don’t really care to pay for G+ but I’d pay whatever I have to (You win again, Disney. You always do.) to make sure my family can get on ROTR and Remy.
