This show is about the new way to bore-book rides!

1. More discounts for fall and December were announced, one of which is getting a park hopper for free.
2. Mickey's very merry christmas party and jollywood nights are coming back

The new Genie+ rolling out July 24, at Walt Disney World only. Disneyland is only getting a name change.

1. Genie+ will not be call Lightning Lane multipass and Individual Lightening lanes will now be called Lightening lane single pass
2. If you are staying on property you can make selections for your entire trip up to 14 days starting at 7 am 7 days from check in. There are a few caveats to that, if you are in the US you cannot make any selections until you are in the US. Also It does not roll out until July 24, so with my trip being July 26 I will not be able to book 7 days out, but Leah will be able to. Eligible hotels are Disney hotels, shades of green, and swan and dolphin.
3. If you are not staying on property you can book 3 days out and are able to book for the length of the ticket.
4. If you do not have a date based ticket and still need reservations you can book up to three days out for each day you are going. Annual Passholders have to have a theme park reservation to use this service or you have to book lightening lanes for after 2pm on days where you can enter after 2. Same 3 days booking applies to APs as non date based tickets. If it is a good to go day, passholders can make any reservations up to 3 days out. Just like with making park reservations your resort stay takes priority and the above 7 days/length of stay is what you would use.
5. Both of these things are like it was with fastpass where on property you booked at 60 days out for your whole trip and not on property was 30 days out and you have to do each day. Thit is a huge perk for staying property.
6. Booking rides: Right now you can buy genie for one park or multiple parks. Going forward you can only pre book your 3 rides for 1 park. Once you have used your first LL you can book your next one. So you can hold 3 at a time. That next one can be for another park, so they are basically “giving” you the park hopper genie. Again this is pretty much exactly how fastpass worked.
7. Lightening lane single pass will also be bookable 7 days in advance.You will be able to see what times are available before you purchase the ride.
8. You will now be able to purchase the lightning lane single pass and multipass in one transaction.
9. Tiered groups: Just like they were doing with fast pass before it was retired you pick one of the better rides from tier 1 and 2 rides from tier 2.
10. AK does not have tiers.
11. You will be able to purchase this in the same places you found it before, the home screen of MDE, the tip board, or new lightning lane tile on the menu screen. You will also be able to see all booked experiences there.
12. If you try and game the system and book a room to try and get the 7 day advantage and then cancel some of the days or rooms your choices will be canceled within 24 hours. The passes themselves will not be canceled or refunded, just your rides canceled.

On this show we talk about 1900 Park Fare returning, 2025 packages being released super early, our review of the Hoop Dee Do Review, and more!

1900 Park Fare is coming back. They will have gumbo on the menu now which sounds great. It’s a wishing theme.

Tianas Bayou adventure, Anna thinks it will open in June.

2025 January- to October 2025 bookings opened February 27, 2025, ticket prices went up, but it looks like they are not raising prices for 2024 which is nice.

It comes with checkin day access to a water park, DVC can also take advantage of this perk. It seems to not be linked to a ticket, but rather a stay.

Early theme park entry is returning

Deluxe extra hours are also staying

Room only reservations will have to be canceled 8 days out instead of the current 5 days

Hoop Dee Doo Review https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/dining/cabins-at-fort-wilderness-resort/hoop-dee-doo-musical-revue/

You can see the booking categories in the link above.
Booking categories, 1, 2 , & 3 and where they are and pricing. AP and DVC get 10% off the price, but not off tax and gratuity so our discount was like $25 for the 4 of us.
