Disney Genie+ prices climb to highest levels in 2024 as Spring Break begins at Disney World

Mar 11, 2024 in "Disney Genie"

Posted: Monday March 11, 2024 7:20am ET by WDWMAGIC Staff

Disney Genie+ at Walt Disney World has surged in price today as some local Orlando area schools begin Spring Break.

Matching the highest prices seen so far in 2024, prices have risen as much as $7 compared to yesterday, with Animal Kingdom jumping from $18 to $25 today. Disney's Hollywood Studios is up $6 to $32, EPCOT is up $7 to $28, and Magic Kingdom and the Multi-Park option are up $6 to $35.

All four parks are just a few dollars short of their all-time highs from Christmas in 2023.

Individual Lightning Lane prices are at their highest levels but are unchanged from yesterday.

Disney Genie+ is a purchase option within the Disney Genie service that makes the former FastPass line available at select attractions, now called Lightning Lane. Certain headline attractions are not part of Genie+, and Lightning Lane access at those attractions requires an Individual Attraction purchase which varies in price.

Learned a new G+ tip the other day and I thought I would share. If you are refreshing looking for a better time on a single ride... Don't pull down to refresh then click the ride once you see a better time come up. Often times you will be too slow and someone else will have gotten that better time. Instead of refreshing that main page, simply click the ride on whatever time it does to move on to the confirmation screen. The time will automatically shift to the latest time available (which might be different that the tip board screen). If it is not the time you want, click back and do it again. This way if you see a time, you are holding that time as soon as you see it.

I've seen many people say they don't like having to be on their phone all day. I didn't experience that. I'd book a LL, set an alarm for a few minutes before the next booking time, and then put my phone away. Lather, rinse, repeat. I don't remember spending more than about 5 (*maybe* 10) minutes on my phone every time I was scheduling another LL. My husband spent *way* more time than that on his phone and he didn't schedule *any* LLs. It was no worse than it was with FP+. And it sure beats having to walk to the ride you wanted to ride to get a FP for it or walking to a kiosk and standing in line to schedule a FP+ before you could do it on the app. I'd venture to guess that I spent more time in the FP/FP+ kiosk days walking back and forth across the parks to get the rides we wanted compared to the amount of time I was on my phone for G+. At least I can parallel process when using my phone -- doing the scheduling while eating a snack or meal or while standing in line somewhere.

Well I’ve had decent luck using it as well after learning the tricks but I spend an enormous time on my phone all day playing the game which I don’t like

Didn't need fixing. I'm ok paying for it, I just don't want it to be $35/day. I felt like $15-20 was a good price. We were FP+ power users, but we had even better success with G+/ILL.

Oh how I wish these would be the prices when we're there next month.

Here's a look at pricing for Genie+ today - the last time prices were at this level was February 25, 2024.

Lol, how I long for the days when it was $15…

Doesn't include the more popular attractions. You have to pay even more to access the lightening lane per ride for those attractions. Total money grab! Disney is pricing themselves out of existence .

So now that the changes to DAS have been announced, any idea on how far away we are from getting news about pre-booking G+ selections?

I think you are right. This is the new floor. Remember how low the prices were when it started

@tanc is talking about LL Bean's return policy that was changed a few years back.

What legendary return policy? Are you talking about for legacy paper FP many years ago? Or something else?
