Are you looking to skip the line on your upcoming Disney World vacation?

Over the summer, Disney changed their skip-the-line service from Genie+ to Lightning Lane Multi Pass, and Individual Lightning Lane became Lightning Lane Single Pass. The new Multi Pass system works similarly to its predecessor, FastPass+. You can now book your Lightning Lane selections and view prices before your trip. Those staying at Disney World hotels can book seven days before their trip, and the general public can book three days before their trip. Multi Pass is also broken up into tiers. You can choose one attraction from tier one and two attractions from tier two to start. If you are wondering which Lightning Lanes you should prioritize in 2025, we have you covered!

When your booking window rolls around, you will be able to make your selections all at once, which means you do not have to check back every day. If you don’t know where to start, we recommend prioritizing the following rides, as they are super popular and can get snatched up quickly. You will be able to book both Lightning Lane Multi and Single Pass selections at the same time.

Magic Kingdom

Magic Kingdom has many popular rides, and it can be hard to decide on your first three selections for the day. 

We would suggest prioritizing the following:

• Seven Dwarfs Mine Train– Single Pass
• TRON Lightcycle / Run– Single Pass
• Tiana’s Bayou Adventure– Multi Pass
• Peter Pan’s Flight– Multi Pass
• Space Mountain– Multi Pass

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train and TRON Lightcycle / Run are both Single Pass rides, which means they are not included with Multi Pass. In order to ride these attractions in the Lightning Lane, you will have to purchase a Single Pass for each person who wishes to ride these attractions. It is also important to note that TRON no longer has a Virtual Queue and only offers a standby line as well as a Lightning Lane Single Pass line.

The other three attractions we suggest, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, Peter Pan, and Space Mountain, are all in the tier-one category. You can only select one during your initial booking.

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is Disney World’s newest attraction and is still popular. It currently has a Virtual Queue line, but we are unsure how long it will stick around. So you can take the risk and choose another attraction from tier one and try to snag a Virtual Queue the day of. We will keep an eye out for any news regarding the fate of Virtual Queue at Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, but for now, it is sticking around!

EPCOT

Our list for EPCOT is a little smaller, which makes it easier to choose which rides you want to prioritize.

For us, we go for the following:

• Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind– Single Pass
• Frozen Ever After– Multi Pass
• Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure– Mutli Pass

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is so popular that it has utilized Virtual Queue longer than any other attraction. We find it to be unlikely that Virtual Queue will go away in 2025, but you never know. Even if you do snag a Virtual Queue, you could wait in line for about an hour on busy days. If you want to experience this popular attraction without the long wait or stress of snagging a Virtual Queue, we recommend splurging for Single Pass.

Frozen Ever After is still widely popular, and a line can sometimes form outside of the Norway Pavilion. The same goes for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure; this attraction is also one of EPCOT’s newest attractions and, on average, has a wait time of over an hour. Both of these are tier-one selections, so if you are unable to get one, we suggest going for the other.

Hollywood Studios

Hollywood Studios has many new attractions, including Galaxy’s Edge and Toy Story Land. Due to this, it can be hard to figure out which rides you should make a priority.

For us, we suggest the following:

• Rise of the Resistance– Single Pass
• Slinky Dog Dash– Multi Pass
• Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway– Multi Pass
• Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run– Multi Pass

Rise of the Resistance is still one of the most popular attractions at Disney World, and it was so shocking that Virtual Queue went away. We highly suggest purchasing a Single Pass for it. Recently, a single-rider line has been added to the attraction, which could save you both time and money. We don’t recommend relying on this, as sometimes a single-rider is not offered.

Slinky Dog Dash, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, and Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run are all tier-one attractions, meaning you can only select one of these during the initial booking window. If you are a Star Wars fan and were unable to snag a Single Pass for Rise of the Resistance, choosing Smugler’s Run as your tier-one Multi Pass selection could be a good route.

If you don’t really care about Star Wars, we suggest going for Slinky Dog Dash and Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway. There are so many attractions to choose from at Hollywood Studios, so remember that you can save an attraction that usually has a longer wait until the end of the night, as you can get in line up to one minute before the park closes.

Animal Kingdom

Animal Kingdom is a little different from the other three parks as they do not have a tier system, but there is still a Single Pass option.

We suggest going for the following attractions when booking:

• Flight of Passage– Single Pass
• Na’vi River Journey– Multi Pass
• DINOSAUR– Multi Pass

Flight of Passage may have opened six years ago, but it still draws long lines. We recommend purchasing Single Pass, Rope Dropping, or holding off to ride until the end of the night.

For your Multi Pass selections, we recommend Na’vi River Journey; it is not as popular as Flight of Passage but is still popular as it is in Pandora. DINOSAUR’s days are numbered, and although we do not have a closing date, we can see it getting more popular as people will ride one last time to say their goodbyes. 

Now you know which rides to prioritize, but how exactly do you book these super popular attractions? We are so glad you asked! Here are four tips!

Book a Disney World Hotel

Disney World hotel guests get a huge Lightning Lane advantage. Guests staying at a Disney World Resort, regardless of whether it is a Value, Moderate, or Deluxe Resort, can book Lightning Lanes seven days in advance. If you are not staying at a Disney World hotel, you can only book three days in advance.

By staying on the property, you are setting yourself up to get first dibs of popular attractions.

Book as Soon as Your Window Opens

Be ready! Whether you stay at a Disney World hotel and get the seven-day booking window, or you stay off-property and get the three-day window, you want to book as soon as you can!

This will give you the best advantage of snagging the rides you want because as it gets later into your booking window day, popular rides can already booked up.

Know What You Want to Do Beforehand

Talk with your party before your booking window rolls around, and make a list of everyone’s must-dos. Figure out the rides you want to go for first, and have backups in case you can’t get your first choice.

It is always wise to go in with a game plan to make it easier to make your selections.

The Day of, Book Lightning Lanes as Soon as You Can

On the day you are set to visit the parks, you are able to book more Lightning Lanes once you start using your first three. So make sure to be on your game and continue to refresh and check the My Disney Experience app to ensure you are making as many selections as you can throughout the day.

Lightning Lanes can be confusing, but hopefully, this guide can help you figure out which rides to book during your 2025 vacation to Disney World! For more Disney tips and news, make sure to continue to follow along with Disney Food Blog!
