The My Disney Experience app lists peak pricing for Lightning Lane Premier Pass on November 28, 2024 (Thanksgiving). That day, Premier Pass for Magic Kingdom is $449; EPCOT is $249; Disney’s Hollywood Studios is $349; and Disney’s Animal Kingdom is $199.

These prices are the high ends of the previously announced ranges:

  • Magic Kingdom: $329-$449
  • EPCOT: $169-$249
  • Disney’s Hollywood Studios: $269-$349 
  • Disney’s Animal Kingdom: $129-$199

For comparison, when Lightning Lane Premier Pass launched on October 30, pricing was at the low end of the ranges, between $129 and $329. Pricing will continue to vary based on the park, date, and demand. The pass will likely continue to be priced high through the end of December for Christmas and New Year’s Eve.

Lightning Lane Premier Pass is currently in a pilot period and is only available to guests staying at Disney Deluxe Resort hotels, Disney Deluxe Villa Resorts, and other select hotels (see the full list of eligible resorts). Guests can purchase Premier Passes up to 7 days before the first day of their vacation.

Lightning Lane Premier Pass is only available for one park per day at Walt Disney World (it covers both parks at Disneyland). After purchasing, guests can change the pass to a different park, but they will not be refunded the difference.
