How Much Does Lightning Lane Cost at Disney World? Prices by Park and Season

Lightning Lane at Walt Disney World costs roughly $16 to $45 per person, per day for the Lightning Lane Multi Pass (formerly Genie+), and about $11 to $25 per person, per ride for the Lightning Lane Single Pass. Both use dynamic pricing, so the exact cost changes daily by park and crowd level — Magic Kingdom runs highest and Animal Kingdom lowest. Disney releases each date’s price up to 21 days out in the My Disney Experience app.

There’s no flat sticker price for skipping the standby line at Disney World anymore, and that trips up a lot of families I plan for. Since Lightning Lane Multi Pass replaced Genie+ in 2024, Disney prices it like an airline seat: same product, different cost depending on the date, the park, and how busy Disney expects things to be. Here’s what you’ll actually pay.

Lightning Lane Multi Pass cost by park

The Multi Pass is the multi-attraction option. You buy it per person, per day, for one park, then book a stack of shorter Lightning Lane return times (you start with three and add more as you go). On our family’s spring visit, Magic Kingdom came in noticeably higher than Animal Kingdom the very next day — same trip, same party, nearly double the price.

ParkMulti Pass (per person, per day)
Magic Kingdom~$25–$45 (highest)
Disney’s Hollywood Studios~$20–$39
EPCOT~$18–$35
Disney’s Animal Kingdom~$16–$30 (lowest)

These are typical 2026 ranges, not fixed prices. I’ve watched a single park swing more than $15 between a quiet Tuesday and a holiday Saturday, so always check your specific date before you assume a number. Think of this page as the current price snapshot for both passes; the strategy guide linked below is the step-by-step how-to for booking and sequencing your day.

Lightning Lane Single Pass price

The Single Pass covers Disney’s top-tier headliners à la carte — think TRON Lightcycle / Run, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. You buy these one ride at a time, on top of (or instead of) a Multi Pass.

Single Pass generally runs about $11 to $25 per person, per ride in 2026, again floating with demand:

  • Animal Kingdom (Flight of Passage): roughly $11–$19 (lowest)
  • EPCOT (Cosmic Rewind): roughly $14–$22
  • Hollywood Studios (Rise of the Resistance): roughly $15–$25
  • Magic Kingdom (TRON Lightcycle / Run): roughly $18–$25 (one of the priciest, tracking near Rise of the Resistance)

You can buy up to two Single Pass selections per day.

How season and crowds change the price

Both passes climb during peak windows and ease off in slower stretches:

  • Highest: holidays, spring break, summer weekends, and any Magic Kingdom day.
  • Lowest: value-season weekdays (parts of January, late August, September, early December weekdays) and Animal Kingdom.

When you can buy — and why it matters

Who can buy first also shapes what’s left: on-site resort guests get a head start (about 7 days out) over off-site guests (about 3 days) — our Lightning Lane Multi Pass strategy guide walks through the booking window step by step.

Is it worth the money?

On a low-crowd day, standby lines may be short enough that you can skip the expense entirely. On a packed holiday, a Multi Pass can save hours. Match the spend to the crowd calendar, not the other way around.
