B. Why Should I Use Genie+?
Essentially, it will help you to get more done in your day. Without it, you will be spending more time waiting in line, which means less attractions in a day.
There is a price to pay for it, so understandably, you may be selective about which days you use Genie+. If it is in your budget, then I definitely recommend using every day to make your park days easier. If you want to reduce your spending, then I find that Genie+ does come in handier for Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios. Those are the two parks where you will get the most bang for your buck and most rides booked with Genie+.
You can get away without having Genie+ at Epcot and Animal Kingdom, however you want to make sure you are taking advantage of the Early Entry hours if you are going without Genie+. You can get 1 or 2 really popular rides done during those early entry hours with a low wait time. It sets you up for a successful day!
Another thing to consider are the Individual Lightning Lanes, which are select rides at each park that are NOT included with Genie+. The Lightning Lanes for those rides are purchased separately and in addition to Genie+. You don’t need to buy Genie+ in order to purchase the Individual Lightning Lanes. The current rides that are not included with Genie+ are (subject to change):
- Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at Magic Kingdom
- TRON at Magic Kingdom
- Guardians of the Galaxy at Epcot
- Rise of the Resistance at Hollywood Studios
- Flight of Passage at Animal Kingdom
Waiting in lines is unavoidable at Disney World, but you can help to make it more efficient by using Genie+ and the Lightning Lanes, which can only make your vacation easier.
