Genie+ is a paid for service from Disney that allows you the ability to skip the lines.<\/p>\n<p>You can combine the use of Lightning Lanes for Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and an Individual Lightning Lane for Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. Luckily, none of these Lightning Lanes sell out easily during the day.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Difference_Between_Lightning_Lanes_and_Individual_Lightning_Lanes\"><\/span>Difference Between Lightning Lanes and Individual Lightning Lanes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25904\" src=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Magic-Kingdom-Monsters-Inc-Lightning-Lane.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Magic-Kingdom-Monsters-Inc-Lightning-Lane.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Magic-Kingdom-Monsters-Inc-Lightning-Lane-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Magic-Kingdom-Monsters-Inc-Lightning-Lane-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Magic-Kingdom-Monsters-Inc-Lightning-Lane-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/disney-genie-and-genie-service\/\">Genie+ can be confusing<\/a>, and Disney didn\u2019t help by making the names so similar! So here\u2019s a simple breakdown:<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lightning_Lanes\"><\/span>Lightning Lanes:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Lightning Lanes are similar to the old days of Fastpass, only now it is a paid for service. The price varies between $15 &#8211; $29 per person per day based on the demand of the day.<\/p>\n<p>Dozens of attractions are available to skip the lines with Lightning Lanes through Genie+.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Individual_Lightning_Lanes\"><\/span>Individual Lightning Lanes:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Individual Lightning Lanes are like a \u201cpay per ride\u201d line skipping service. This includes the most popular attractions in Walt Disney World, like Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, Avatar Flight of Passage.<\/p>\n<p>Costs of Individual Lightning Lanes vary based on demand.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Completing_the_Mountain_Challenge_WITHOUT_Genie\"><\/span>Completing the Mountain Challenge WITHOUT Genie+<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-25885\" src=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Magic-Kingdom-People-Mover-Space-Mountain.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Magic-Kingdom-People-Mover-Space-Mountain.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Magic-Kingdom-People-Mover-Space-Mountain-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Magic-Kingdom-People-Mover-Space-Mountain-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Magic-Kingdom-People-Mover-Space-Mountain-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It is totally possible to complete the Mountain Challenge without the use of Genie+! If you Rope Drop Magic Kingdom and head right to Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, you will have no problem completing the rest of your challenge.<\/p>\n<p>PRO-TIP: You can get in line for attraction up until park close. So, if the park closes at 9:00 and you enter a queue, no matter how long it is a 8:59, you still get to ride! Often times you will find shorter ride times<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Celebrate_Your_Victory\"><\/span>Celebrate Your Victory!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Show off your accomplishment with a Disney Celebration pin!
