Recent price increases have hit the Walt Disney World Resort, and the most recent casualty of this appears to be Disney Genie+. With the new variable pricing for Disney Genie+ having gone into effect, a new price increase is showing up within the parks. The price for Disney Genie+ has reached its highest so far, being $22 for the day. It is expected this could become higher during holiday seasons to control crowds, so we would recommend keeping an eye on the price before purchasing.
The Disney Genie+ service allows you to book a return time at any available Lightning Lane, which has replaced the previous FastPass+ system. The same-day service reduces planning, but charges for a previously free service. Though the original price was a constant $15, demand has caused many guests to be upset with limited Lightning Lane availability.
Star Wars: Rise Of The Resistance had a $22.00 Individual Lightning Lane this morning as well.
With the recent price increase, are you still planning on using Disney Genie+ on your next visit? Read our guide on Disney Genie+ to see what you can expect with this added service.

This is what disney does all the time when something doesnt wrk they price you out till they get rid of it. How about we all wait on line like normal people before all this trouble and before lines went over an hr.
a suggestion. do not spend your money in the parks after paying not to stand in line. just stsand in line, and remove two ways that bob the beancounter tries to fleece you. until we tank him, this supposed ceo of the disney magic will be around forever.
This is all so desperately sad.
It’s not like Disney weren’t making good money out of the parks before scrapping free parking at resorts, free airport transportation, evening extra magic hours and free fast passes. It just leaves a bad taste in the mouth of people that love Disney and the parks.
Completely outrageous. Especially for something that used to be included with park admission, now guests need to pay $22+ per person per day??? Shameful and disgusting.
