I’m OK with this list of options. First, it seems that each ride won’t have all options available. Plus, the two Genie versions aren’t ways to get on the ride, any more than touring plans. As far as Genie goes, I’ll be using Touring Plans. I won’t trust their suggestions anymore than I trust their wait times. I can totally see Disney making suggestions that are optimal for THEM and not for me. I can see Genie messing up Touring Plans though by changing the natural flow. For the Lightning Lane, I hope that they are so expensive that hardly anyone uses them (like VIP tours). For stand-by pass and BG’s, I hope that they are complicated and I’ll have an advantage because I’ll have you guys to explain optimal.
My main concern is ROTR. This will be our one-and-done trip that was made possible (to DH) because of Star Wars. If we are forced to pay $150 for the three of us to ride ROTR once, because that is the only option, we’ll pay, but Disney will be dead to me. I’ll be that ticked off. I am one of those that eagerly watches every Disney movie. But, that would stop. Hopefully by Feb the shine will be off it and we’ll be able to get a free BG.
