Disney Genie, Disney Genie+, and the Individual Lightning Lane will soon be utilized at Walt Disney World. How will this affect EPCOT’s newest attraction, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure?
Disney Genie
There is so much to take in with the different levels of Disney Genie, Disney Genie+, and also the Individual Lightning Lane. Be sure to check out Monica’s article where she helps explain each aspect of this new system.
Today we received information regarding when this new feature will be available for use in Walt Disney World. We also now have a full list of attractions that will be included for Genie+, and a price list for the Individual Lightning Lane attractions.
Virtual Queues
Back in September, Walt Disney World announced a HUGE change for one of their most popular attractions, Rise of the Resistance. Although this attraction had utilized a Virtual Queue since it first opened, a big change would be coming.
A Virtual Queue is now no longer available for Rise of the Resistance. Currently, the only option to enjoy this attraction is to stand in line. Starting in October, Guests can bypass the line and instead pay for an Individual Lightning Lane.
Currently the only attraction at Walt Disney World still utilizing a Virtual Queue is Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure in EPCOT. Many wondered if the news of the Individual Lightning Lane would also change this Virtual Queue as well.
Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure
At the time of this writing, the Virtual Queue for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure will still be available even once Disney Genie, Genie+, and Individual Lighting Lane are available for Guests.
This is GREAT news for Guests who would prefer to not pay to enjoy Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure. Be sure to check out our detailed guide for securing a Boarding Group for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure HERE.
The Virtual Queue for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure will still be available even once Disney Genie, Genie+, and Individual Lighting Lane are available for Guests.
How much will it cost to ride Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure with the Individual Lightning Lane? The Disney website states, “Prices will vary by date, attraction and park. For example, the Lightning Lane entrance to Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure will be $9 per person on October 19 and $11 per person on October 23.
You could try to gain a Boarding Group for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure at 7:00am. If at first you don’t succeed you now have 2 options. You could try for a Virtual Queue at 1:00pm or you could purchase the Individual Lightning Lane for this attraction.
Disney Resort Guests can purchase Individual Lightning Lane attractions at 7:00am and Guests off-site would not be able to purchase an Individual Lightning Lane until Park opening.
What do you think of the using the Virtual Queue for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure rather than purchasing the Individual Lightning Lane? Did you have success in the Virtual Queue previously for Rise of the Resistance? Will you try to gain a Boarding Group for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure on your next trip to Walt Disney World?
