3 Best and Worst Lightning Lanes at Disneyland

Waiting in a ride queue can be the least exciting part of a Disneyland trip, which is why guests can purchase Lightning Lanes to bypass most of the line. But then you have to figure out which attractions to go to before the others, which is why we’ve compiled a list of the best and worst Lightning Lanes at Disneyland.

Single Pass

The Lightning Lane Single Pass is completely separate from the Multi Pass, and it lets you purchase access to one specific attraction.

The Lightning Lane Single Pass is completely separate from the Multi Pass and lets you purchase access to a single attraction.

At Disneyland, there is only one attraction available as a single Lightning Lane pass: Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance. This attraction is not available as one of your three choices on a Multi Pass.

Multi Pass

Unlike the Single Pass, the Multi Pass allows you to choose an attraction upon entering the park. After redeeming that selection, or after two hours since making the selection, you can book your next attraction—subject to availability.

At Disneyland, the following attractions are redeemable through the Multi Pass:

Premier Pass

Beyond Multi Pass, you also have the option to use Premier Pass at Disneyland. Once you’ve purchased the pass for your chosen park and date, you can enter the Lightning Lane entrances one time for each participating attraction (the same as the Multi Pass, plus the Single Pass) at any time during the day. There’s no need to book return times or manage ride reservations. Simply tap in at the Lightning Lane entrance and enjoy the ride.
