are you feeling a little nervous about using the new lightning Lane multipass service at Disneyland Resort in California well my friends I have some good news for you we're going to take you screen by screen step by step and show you everything you're going to need to know to make the most of this service here at Disneyland Resort let's go do [Music] it hi ho everybody this is Rob with ear Scouts coming to you from Disney's California Adventure at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim California we're here today because there is a brand new line skipping
service Disney Genie plus has gone away and now there is a lightning Lane multipass if you've previously used Disney Genie plus here at Disneyland Park which is of course a different system than we have over in Orlando at Walt Disney World if you've used that system before I have some good news for you and that is while over at Disney World in Orlando they changed everything and it's a completely new system here at Disney Land the only thing they changed was the name that's pretty much it so if you are already comfortable using Disney Genie
plus here you're going to feel right at home using lightning Lane multipass however if your experience is using Disney Genie Plus in Disney World or even the new lightning Lane multipass at Disney World world this is going to be a totally different system for you there's going to be some things that are familiar but don't worry we're going to take you through them step by step and give you our best tips for making the most of this service here at Disneyland and the good news is on the whole it's actually a lot easier to use
here let's get to [Music] it my first big tip and this is a big change from using either Genie Plus or lightning Lane in Orlando here in California you cannot book your first lightning Lane of the day until you have physically tapped into the park so until you enter you can't start booking lightning Lanes so that's why even though we can't start using lightning Lanes during early entry and you don't really need to because the lines are a lot shorter right now even though we're not using it we were still wanting to come in for
early entry because that allowed us to purchase our lightning Lane service and book our first lightning Lane of the day now as I mentioned we can't start tapping into lightning Lanes until regular Park op so today that's going to be at 8:00 a.m. so what I recommend doing instead if you're here for early entry go ahead and try to do some of those attractions that you can't get a lightning Lane multipass for that's why we're coming here into Radiator Springs this is the Cars Land and we're going to do radi I Ator Springs Racers this
attraction does offer a lightning Lane but it's what's called lightning Lane single pass meaning it's not included with your lightning Lane multi-pass Service you would have to pay extra per person for this one ride so we don't want to pay for it we want to do it with as short a weight as possible so we're getting in this line before the park opens so this ride actually isn't even open for early entry you can always check in the app to see what rides are open just tap on any attraction that you're interested in and it'll
show you the hours for the attraction for that day if there is early entry for it it's going to show you that in a little special spot on that screen even though we can't ride this during early entry it still makes a lot of sense to get in this queue before the regular park opens because we're going to get a jump on this line and that's going to allow us to not only do one of the best rides in this park first it's also going to let us put the pedal to the metal and get
a ton of rides done [Music] today slow down you're not racing yet a race huh it's going to be [Music] [Music] yeah wo [Music] [Music] W cow y'all we just did the most popular ride in this park a ride that is going to have waight times upwards of 90 to 120 minutes later today and we got it done with a weight of less than 15 minutes that's how you start your day here at Disneyland also what a fun ride I love that you might notice that it has some similarities with test track at Walt Disney
World it's actually the same ride system as test track and there's even a little Easter egg here and there that nods to the predecessor of test track for me though this one is just way more fun as much fun as we're having though I think it is time to get down to business and start talking about how to use this lightning Lane multipass service because we've actually already started booking our lightning lanes for the day we did that as soon as we entered the park if you don't already have lightning Lane multipass purchased you're going
to actually do that when you enter the park for your first day so we entered the park today we tried to purchase multipass before we had tapped into the gates and it wouldn't let us do it it said that we didn't have a valid ticket now this was surprising cuz we did actually have a park pass reservation for today but until we physically tapped in it did not allow us to purchase multipass and start using the service once you've tapped into the park go ahead and open up that Disneyland app and in the main menu
you're going to see in that top right a button for lightning Lanes we're going to be tapping that button all day today so let's start by tapping that button and up at the top you're going to see a link there to purchase lightning Lane multipass go go ahead and tap there to purchase it's going to ask you who all you want to purchase it for and then from there it's basically a straightforward purchase process just follow the prompts put in your credit card info and Bam you're good to go now once that service is purchased
you can actually go right into that tipboard screen that you'll see when you tap on that lightning Lanes button and you can just start tapping away and booking your first ride however there is one step that I recommend you do before you get to that and that is to use the Disney Genie service you heard me correctly Disney Genie is still around even though they changed the lightning Lane systems name it's no longer Genie plus it is lightning Lane multipass the old free Disney Genie service is still there and we're definitely going to want to
make use of that cuz it's going to make our lives a lot easier as we use lightning Lane multipass so in order to do that just go back to that main menu and you're going to see a button for today's plans tap on that and you'll see a little genie on that screen and it's going to say get started now go ahead and tap on that it's going to ask you what day you're planning what park you're going to first it's going to ask you who all is coming with you on your adventure that day
once you get through that however that is when you're going to come to the screen that is the most important this is where you're going to choose which rides you're most interested in what I recommend doing start by choosing the rides that going to want to book first this is going to pin those rides to the top of your tipboard screen and make it a lot easier for you to book them it's important when you're choosing these attractions that you don't pick more than two or three we'll explain why that is later but if you
get more than two or three of these attractions pinned to the top of your tipboard it makes it challenging to tap in quickly and grab a great return time so for us I did choose Guardians of the Galaxy Mission breakout I also chose Toy Story Mania and and surprisingly I chose goofy Sky school so those are the three that I picked you see them pinned to the top there you can also see that I already booked Guardians of the Galaxy Mission breakout I did that as soon as we came into the park well believe it
or not it's already time to go tap in at our first lightning Lane of the day over at Guardians of the Galaxy I want to go ahead and tap in there as quickly as I can because you can't book another lightning Lane until you've used the first one that you booked we're going to cover the different ways that you can book lightning Lanes a little bit later but for right now just know you want to tap into that first one as quickly as you can cuz that will free you up to book another one so
let's go see if we can give a hand to our friends the Guardians of the Galaxy from what I hear they've gotten themselves into a pretty sticky situation and I think we might be able to help him out of it let's go do it so the idea behind this attraction is that the collector has managed to capture the Guardians of the Galaxy but a reason I mention this right now is because as you're coming into this queue you definitely want to look up and see the other creatures that the collector has collected if you're a
Disney worlder like me you're going to find that one of your favorite little creatures has actually been captured here that is figment figment is actually captured up in a little box up above your head and I think that is such a fun Easter egg that the imaginators put here you're one step closer to your exciting encounter with the Guardians of the Galaxy that was not part of the plan for those of you who have not been paying attention the name's rocket one of the Guardians of the Galaxy I'm going to blast that thing and destroy
all the control systems which will open up every cage in this freak Show and free my friends W this attraction as you probably figured out is their version of Tower of Terror I love Tower of Terror it's one of my favorite rides I do think this one is maybe a little bit more fun but I'm really glad we still have the original and I'm glad that we can come here and ride this really fun rethem Guardians of the Galaxy the other thing I'm really glad about was how easy it was to book our next lightning
Lane as soon as we tapped in back there I opened up that Disneyland app I went to that lightning Lane button again which took me to the tipboard screen I just scrolled down and I saw that webs Slingers had an amazing return time already so I just went ahead and booked that and with that we've already booked all the lightning Lanes we need to book here in Adventures campus and all we got to do now is enjoy the ride let's go do [Music] it my glad to see you [Music] guys and just like that we
have done every single attraction here in Avengers campus with a lightning Lane available now there are definitely a lot more things we could do to keep having fun in this area of the park there's some great character meet and greets and there is an Amazing Spider-Man show that you kind of have to see to believe we might check that out a little bit later but for our purposes our goal is to show you how to get the most out of this lightning Lane multipass service so we're going to keep booking those lightning Lanes as soon
as we tapped in back there I went ahead and booked our next lightning Lane over at Pixar Pier we're going to be doing Toy Story Midway Mania the reason I chose that one is because it's on my list of attractions I'm worried about having a hard time booking later today let's go grab some breakfast and I'll tell you more about what those attractions [Music] are whenever I'm here at California Adventure my go-to I love corn dog Castle believe it or not this is the thing I crave not for the corn dog actually it's for something
they call the cheese stick so imagine a corn dog but instead of having a hot dog in the center imagine that it is this massive chunk of cheddar cheese that is melted to Ooey Gooey Perfection inside that sweet corn dog coating oh my gosh it is Heaven on a stick we decided to go ahead and cross that one off our list right away we wanted to make sure we had some time to eat that delicious just cheese stick and that's what we're having for breakfast but while we're waiting for that order to come up let's
talk a little bit about which attractions we chose to start with and why we chose those so as we mentioned we did Radiator Springs Racers first because it was early entry and we were going to be able to get a jump on the crowds and we wouldn't be able to do a lightning Lane for that later but why did we do Mission breakout next the reason is because whenever you're using the lightning Lane Service you want to try to aim for those lightning lanes that are the most popular first because the longer you wait in
the day the more people come into the park and start using lightning Lane the more they're going to grab those most popular attractions and it's going to make it harder to get them for a quick return time we were able to get a great time for Mission breakout so we started there and then I went ahead and I did webs Slingers which is an attraction that also is fairly popular uh but the main reason I did that one was just convenience it was right next door the other attractions I put on my list were Toy
Story Mania that's another one that's very popular and I chose Goofy's Sky school because for some reason whenever I come to this park I feel like I have a hard time getting goofy Sky school I don't know if it's just because it's a popular traction for little ones and it has less of a capacity so it backs up but whatever the reason I went ahead and I just put that on the list to keep an eye on it cuz I've had trouble getting that one in the past we talked to some locals about which rides
they aim for first and the first one mentioned was actually not here in California Adventure but over at Disneyland the Indiana Jones attraction is definitely the first one you want to grab over there we are going to park hop later today so I am going to be keeping an eye on that Indiana Jones ride if it looks like those lightning Lane return times are slipping way too late I might just go ahead and grab it but the other rides you want to look at in that Park if you're starting there or you're just keeping an
eye on it for later are going to be the matter horn and Space Mountain I want to thank our friend Amana we actually met up with her here over at the Disneyland hotel and she watches the channel she comes to the parks every single week so it was very helpful to hear from her her tips on which rides she aimed for first surprisingly the reason you want to get Indiana Jones first isn't so much because it's super popular I mean it is super popular but it's really because that attraction goes down a lot apparently she
said that it's very common to come in and see Indiana Jones down so if you see it up and you see a good return time for it just go ahead and grab it cross it off your list and enjoy it before it goes down and possibly doesn't come back up for the rest of the day those of us who live in Orlando are like you know that sounds familiar it sounds a little bit like an attraction we have called riseing resistance which also goes down a good bit man that was a delicious breakfast corn dog
Castle man breakfast of champions woo I just got a ladybug we're going to be we're going to be lucky today we got a ladybug on my arm I do feel really lucky that we went ahead and did Guardians cuz I was just looking at the tipboard right now already the return times for Guardians are in the late afternoon it's like 6 something right now but really if you look at it you're going to see most everything doesn't have a late return time there's just not as much competition for lightning Lanes here at Disneyland as there
is at Disney World so if you're used to being super stressed out about your lightning Lanes at Disney World the good news is it's a lot easier to grab what you want here of course it's also important to mention that we are here on a pretty slow day it is a Sunday so it's a weekend and we are here during the summer when kids are out of school so I would have expected it to be a little bit busier than it is do keep in mind though if you're here on one of the busiest times
of the year or just a particularly busy day like a holiday you're going to have a harder time grabbing some lightning Lanes but even even then it's never as bad as it is at Disney World so if you're a Disney World Genie plus veteran you're going to do just fine here at Disneyland why does Woody wear Spurs on his boots I don't know why cuz they look pretty silly on his head [Music] what an incredible morning we're having here at California Adventure we' been able to book pretty much whatever I wanted to grab since we're
having such an incredible morning I decided to make our next attraction the incred coaster this is my favorite ride in this park I love it so much it's like an old style wooden roller coaster I don't think it's really wooden it's a little bit smoother than that but it looks like that old style wooden coaster and it's themed to The Incredibles best of all however there's a guest appearance from Edna Mode and any attraction that features Edna Mode is attraction worth putting on your list before we ride it though I do want to show you
how you can adjust the rides that are pinned to the top of your tipboard screen it's really easy to do when you're on that tipboard screen view you'll see a little link there for edit selection options tap on that a menu pops up and you can basically check the rides that you want pinned and uncheck the ones that you've already ridden or you aren't interested in anymore once you do that voila your tipboard is refreshed with all new rides pinned to the top this isn't mattering so much for us right now because things are easy
to grab but later today when things get more complicated it's going to come in handy to have these rides pinned to the top for right now though let's keep this incredible journey going with incred Co sir [Music] cookie cookie what a great ride I love that one so much there's a part of me that's really jealous that we don't have that one in Disney World but there's another part of me that likes that there are special things that we get to experience only when we come to certain parks and that one is so special as
soon as we tapped in at in credit coaster I went ahead and booked our our next lightning Lane for goofy Sky school cuz that was the last one I was keeping an eye on and it was right near us unfortunately goofy Sky school went down while we were on in credit coaster so we got a little push notification letting us know that Disney had made a little change to our itinerary what that means is that Disney's given us what they call an experience Redemption I like to call it a bonus lightning Lane essentially when you
have this you can tap into it and you'll see a list of attractions that you can use it at for any of those attractions you don't need to book it you just walk up tap in and go here's something that's very unique however about doing this at Disneyland versus Disney World at Disneyland there are a lot of attractions that don't offer lightning Lanes these are attractions that just didn't have the space usually to accommodate a lightning Lane line but look several of those attractions are available to use with an experience Redemption I've actually never gotten
to do that before so we're going to go over into Cars Land because there are two rides over there that you cannot use a lightning Lane for but they do appear in this list of experience redemptions I did go ahead and rebook goofy Sky school so we have that in the bag again it's about 40 minutes or so from now but I'm really excited though to try out an experience Redemption at a ride that doesn't even have a lightning Lane [Music] well that was pretty cool as a Disney worlder I've never had the experience of
redeeming a bonus lightning Lane at an attraction that didn't even offer lightning Lane but there are many attractions here at Disneyland that offer that I chatted with the cast member when I walked up I said so how does this work if I have this bonus and you don't have a lightning Lane and they informed me that you actually just go through the exit you probably do want to check in with the cast member at the front first just to make sure that's going to be the procedure but they sent us through the exit there was
another cast member there who led us to the entry of the ride and they said that normally they would scan our Magic Band to redeem it but they were making a little extra Magic for us today so they allowed us to keep that bonus lightning Lane which was pretty sweet so we got to ride that ride that didn't have a lightning Lane with no way and we still have our bonus in our back pocket after we finished up over at Cars Land I decided I kind of wanted to switch gears I didn't want to do
goofy Skys school because it is crazy hot right now and a water ride just sounded really good so we decided we wanted to do Grizzly River Rapids instead I want to show you right now what you do if you change your mind and you don't want to use the lightning Lane that you currently have it's really easy you're just going to go find that lightning Lane in the tipboard screen and you'll notice that there are three little dots there tap on those three little dots and a menu is going to pop up and you can
choose modify plan I'll also note here that if you wanted to just cancel it all together there is an option to cancel there and another thing that's good to know is if you hit cancel they will actually ask you who you want to cancel for so it won't automatically cancel for everyone if you have just some members of your party who don't want to ride this is also an easy way to remove them from that lightning Lane and free them up to book something else but for us we're going to modify this so let's tap
on that modify plan button and then you're going to see a screen that looks kind of like your tipboard screen only now up at the top you're going to see pin the ride that you currently have booked it's going to show you the time that you have it booked for and then it's going to show you the time you could book it for right then below that are different attractions that you could book instead and you'll also notice that whatever you had pinned is also pinned in this View and that's key because it makes it
really easy to find the attractions that you want to change to instead so we went ahead and switch over to Grizzly River Rapids but we don't have the greatest return time right now I'm going to share with you what I think is probably the most important part of this video so you might want to bookmark this to return into it this is really the key to getting the most out of using lightning Lane multipass I like to call this playing the slots and the reason I call it that is because if you think of lightning
Lane as a ride booking tool you're going to find it to be very frustrating however if you think of lightning Lane as a game and when you play that game you can actually win a really short wait for one of your favorite rides at Disney World it turn turns it from being a chore to being kind of a fun and almost competitive sport I definitely love playing the slots cuz it's kind of adds a thrill element to it that you're like wow I can't believe I managed to get that amazing return time for that ride
I really wanted to ride so this is how you do it we're going to start the same way that we did before we're going to tap on those three little dots the menu pops up we choose modify plan but now instead of just tapping in and booking something else we're going to take our finger we're going to slide it down the screen and we're going to spin the reels on that lightning Lane slot machine so what happens at this point it's going to go and look for what are the best current available times for the
rides and it's going to show those to you in some cases you might have a big win it might show you a much earlier return time which means you could grab it and ride it a lot sooner in other cases the time might go the other direction it might get later it is kind of like a slot machine it's a game of luck but the good news is you still have that time booked you're not losing anything by doing this so it's kind of like a slot machine game where you can only win you can't
really lose what you currently have so we played that slot machine game for a while and Bam we saw a great return time and I tapped into it and then w w w I did not tap in fast enough because you see everybody else here is also kind of playing that slot machine game and if they see that time and they tap in on it before you do poof that time is gone and you're shown something different if this keeps happening to you a lot I want to show you a different way of playing the
slots that kind of takes that quick tap out of the equation what you're going to do back back out of that screen that's showing you the time you don't want when you get back to the other screen don't refresh it just tap in again and that's going to do the same thing it's going to go looking for what's the best current return time you can keep repeating this process Tap Out tap Back In Tap Out tap back in and if you get lucky and you tap in on a great return time you're done you don't
need to tap in again you already did the tap so this is the best way to play the slots if you're aiming for just one attraction the reason I don't always play the slots this way is because usually I'm open to riding a few different attractions so I'll have them all pinned up there and when I I refresh I can see how the times change for all of them in this case though I really just wanted Grizzly River Run I think I keep calling it Grizzly River Rapids but it's Grizzly River Run I just wanted
that one attraction so I use this tap in Tapout method and voila I have a wonderful return time for that ride and actually in just a little bit we're going to be able to tap in and go ride it as soon as we get off though we're going to talk about Park hopping and maybe even taking a resort break in the middle of your day and how you can use Genie to maximize the second part of your Disneyland day let's go do it [Music] oh boy oh [Music] no oh [Music] dear this is not looking
[Music] good W well we got pretty drenched over on Grizzly River run but I got to say Eric definitely got it a lot worse than I did I'm okay um sort of half of me is drenched right now but Eric is just completely soaked so I think we're going to go back to the hotel to just relax and dry off a little bit and honestly I always recommend that if you've got a hotel nearby and you're doing early entry in the morning and you plan to go well into the night take a break in the
middle of the day and the great thing is the lightning Lane system makes it really easy for you to do that and still have a super productive second half of your day so let's start by talking about how you would park hop using the lightning Lane multipass system let's go over to that tipboard screen and up at the top you're going to see there is a little link up there that says change Park but look what happens when I tap on that so I tap on that and then the menu pops up and I choose
the other Park which is Disneyland and now for reason I don't see that edit selections button anymore so I can't pin anything to the top of my screen don't worry there's an easy fix for this all you're going to do now tap on that my day Tab and then you're going to scroll all the way to the bottom down there kind of buried amongst everything else you're going to find a link that says plan for your next Park Tap on that it's going to ask you which Park you're going to and then it's going to
ask you who's going with you and which rides your most interested in this is basically just like setting up the free Genie service at the beginning of the day and now you're going to have those rides that you pick pin to the top of your view soon as I got into that tipboard screen I noticed a great really late return time later in the afternoon for Indiana Jones in this case I don't want an early time I want it to be later because we're going to use a technique that a lot of folks call stacking
so what that means is we're not going to ride any rides right now we're going to take a break and we're going to continually every 2 hours book another ride in our second Park of the day when you're using the lightning Lane multipass service there are multiple different ways that will free you up to book another lightning Lane the one we've been using all day today is to just tap in at the most recent lightning Lane that we've booked and that allows us to book another one you could also cancel that lightning lane or you
could let it expire in that case that would also free you up to book another lightning Lane but when you're planning to park hop or you're planning to take a resort stop in the middle of the day what I recommend doing is using the 2hour rule so what this means is from the moment that you book a lightning Lane a clock starts running and you'll have 2 hours and then after that 2our cooling off period you're going to be able to book another lightning Lane this is going to allow you to do what's known as
stacking so what you would do you'd book a lightning Lane you'd wait the 2 hours and then you'd book another one and repeat this process until you're ready to go back to the park and then you have a whole bunch of rides lined up and ready to go so you see in this scenario the fact that Indiana Jones is a really late return time is great cuz I'm planning to book some other rides maybe even in between now and then and that one's just starting my 2hour clock counting and getting my first ride in the
bag whenever you're using this I recommend set yourself an alarm on your phone to remind you when your 2 hours is going to be up another thing you can do is look in that tipboard screen once you have a lightning Lane booked and you're using that 2hour rule you're going to see a green bar and that green bar is going to show you when you're free to book your next lightning Lane I.E when your 2hour clock is going to be done counting down so now we're going to head back to the hotel take a breather
we're going to meet you over there and I'm going to show you more about how this stacking system works and let's see what we can get booked for Disneyland later tonight let's go do it well I just took a much needed nap here at the resort I set myself an alarm to remind me to book my next lightning Lane when that 2hour timer ran out and I was able to pretty quickly grab matter horn Bob sleds at a great time once you hit this later afternoon time it's often easy to find later return times for
the rides you're aiming for that'll be late enough for you to to be able to do them when you get back into the park if however you run into a case where you want to book a ride and maybe the return time isn't late enough it's important to know that you can always continue to modify that lightning Lane and push the return time later as long as that lightning Lane has not expired it will still let you go in modify and change that time to be something a little bit later to fit your plans so
right now we still have that bonus lightning lane from this morning that we got from Goofy Sky school going down we also have Indiana Jones booked and we now have matter horn Bob sleds booked in addition we went ahead and booked the virtual queue for Haunted Mansion holiday so we're going to have that to ride when we go back to the park right now I'm going to go grab a bite to eat and probably by the time I'm finished with that and ready to head back into the park it's going to be the right moment
to book yet another lightning Lane and we're going to have a ton of rides stacked up and ready to go as soon as we get back to Disneyland [Music] well we enjoyed a nice bite to eat and now we have hopped over to Disneyland we're actually on the tail end of that return window for Indiana Jones that we booked earlier and I feel like it's really important to share that while you do have some grace period on your like lightning Lanes here it's not as flexible as it is at Walt Disney World at Walt Disney
World your lightning Lanes have a 5minute grace period at the beginning and a 20-minute grace period at the end here at Disneyland you do have that 5minute grace period at the beginning so you can usually tap in 5 minutes early however there's only a 15minute grace period on the end and even that is not guaranteed it's up to the discretion of the cast member and if the line is really backed up even if you're only 5 minutes late it is possible that the cast member would not let you board so here it's much more important
to be on time for your lightning Lanes than it is at Disney World where things are a little bit more flexible but we're still in our return window so let's hurry up and tap in before we get timed out and let's join Indie as he explores the Temple of the Forbidden eye [Music] oh now don't tell me that wasn't big fun man that is such a fun ride I can't wait till we get our version of that in Animal Kingdom we just found out yesterday actually that we're going to be getting a brand new Indiana
Jones ride everyone thought we were just going to get a clone of this because in Animal Kingdom there is a ride called dinosaur that uses the exact same track system as this attraction so everyone was like well when they're saying they're going to get rid of dinoland and they're going to bring in an Indiana Jones attraction everyone just basically assumed it was going to be a carbon copy but we just found out it is not it is going to be a completely new adventure with Indie and I for one can't wait to go on it
and speaking of completely new adventures we have another one already lined up from that stacking we did earlier it's time to go do the matter horn Bob sleds one thing I do want to point out however so in earlier in this video every time that we tapped into a lightning Lane we were immediately able to book another one when we tapped in here at Indiana Jones however that did not free us up to do anything the reason for that is Indiana Jones was not the most recent lightning Lane that we booked actually the most recent
one I booked was for the Roger Rabbit ride that's here because I was able to grab that as soon as that last 2hour window expired so if we were to tap in at Roger Rabbit that would free us up to book another but tapping in at these rides that we booked earlier like Indiana Jones and like we're about to do at matter horn unfortunately those Do Not Free us up well we made it all the way over here to the matter horn and then w W wamp unfortunately the matter horn is down and that meant
that we got another one of those experience redemptions there's something really important that I want to point out now that we have these two different experience redemptions look at the list of attractions that we see for the one we got for goofy Sky school now look at the list of attractions we can use it for with the one we got for matter horn Bob sleds you're going to see a different list of rides the reason for that is because Disney basically tiers rides in different categories and if they're giving you a bonus lightning Lane for
a specific ride they're going to offer a basket of rides that Disney considers to be equivalent to that ride they're always going to let you do a ride that's maybe not quite as in demand as the ride you got it for but they're not going to let you use it for a ride that is more in demand for that reason I do not want to use this matter horn Bob sleds bonus light lightning Lane on anything other than matter horn or something at that level or better so I'm going to hold that lightning Lane until
matter horn comes back up so I can use it there but that other one I could certainly use that one on any of the attractions there and one of those attractions is actually Roger Rabbit so that would free us up to go ahead and cancel our Roger Rabbit lightning Lane we could just use the bonus there and that means we can go ahead and book another lightning Lane right now I think that's the smart play because really the sooner you book your next lightning Lane the better chance you're going to have of getting a good
return time on one of those key attractions you really want to do I think I'm going to aim for Big Thunder Mountain because that's one of my favorite rides here at Disneyland but right now we're going to head over to Roger Rabbit and use that bonus lightning Lane we got earlier today from goofy Sky School let's go do it [Music] [Music] GRE [Music] [Music] if you are a really big fan of Mr Toad's Wild Ride which I definitely am you have got to do Roger Rabbit's cartoon spin while you're here if you've never done it
before it's kind of like an updated version of Mr Toad obviously it's featuring Roger Rabbit the story is a little bit different but there's a lot of similarities my favorite thing about it though as an update of Mr Toad's Wild Ride is that you are in a car with a steering wheel but in this one you really steer it when you turn the car turns where you want it to go it's a really fun ride I think little kids especially are going to get a huge kick out of this I remember growing up I think
I loved Mr Toad's Wild Ride mainly because I had this sense that I was driving the car and in this one the little kids are going to definitely get the sense they're driving the car CU it's really going to go where they steer it and speaking of being in control of things I want to point out something that we did a little bit differently when we tapped in here at Roger Rabbit so normally I use my magic band to tap in I just tap it at the touch point and it lets us in as long
as you have a Magic Band plus that's the newest magic bands that have come out they're the ones that you have to charge if you want all the special features to work if you have one of those chargeable Magic Band pluses those will work here at Disneyland the older ones however only work at Walt Disney World so if you got an older one that's not going to work for you here however I did not use my magic Bandit tap in here and the reason is because I had two experience redemptions it was really important to
me that I used one of those experience redemptions in particular and here at Disneyland you actually have a way of doing that you can't do this at Disney World this is a Disneyland exclusive so what you're going to do go into the app find the experience Redemption that you want to use make sure it's the right one and then there's a button there that says redeem tap on that and you're going to see a barcode pop up they actually have barcode scanners built in to their touch points here so you can just scan that specific
barcode and that's going to ensure that it uses the lightning Lane that you want it to use at this point we've got a ton of stuff lined up plus there's a lot of stuff that I want to ride through a standby queue like Mr Toad's Wild Ride that one doesn't even offer lightning Lane I should also mention that there are going to be some attractions that you might want to consider using the standby queue just because you want to experience that queue and over here in Toontown is probably the best example of that Mickey and
Minnie's runaway Railway the ride itself is almost exactly like the one in Orlando I think but the queue is what makes this one extra special in the meantime however matter horn has come back up so we can go ride that we've got our lightning Lane for Big Thunder Mountain we've also got a virtual queue for Haunted Mansion we have got so much fun stuff lined up to do let's see how much of it we can pack into our final night here at Disneyland let's go do it [Applause] [Music] [Music] a [Music] well our fun train
has been temporarily derailed we were about to board Big Thunder Mountain and unfortunately that Attraction did go down which meant we got our third experience Redemption of the day another related detail that is good to know is that when you do have an experienc Redemption if there's a ride on that list that you've already ridden with a lightning Lane you can in fact use that experience Redemption to ride that ride again that's really the only way using lightning Lane that you're going to be able to use the lightning Lane twice for the same attraction in
one day so if there was something else that we really wanted to ride twice like for example we wanted to do matter horn Bob sleds again we could use this experience Redemption there hopefully big Thunder's going to come back online soon but in the meantime let's get this fun train back on the tracks and continue seeing how many more rides we can get done tonight [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] he [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] what an amazing finish to our last night in Anaheim we rode so many rides we had so much fun and I
do have one last tip to share with you and that is when you come to the end of your night make sure that you get your last lightning Lane booked at least 30 minutes before the park closes because at that 30 minute Mark when you refresh you're going to find that the lightning Lane service has turned into a pumpkin for the night we actually weren't planning to use a lightning Lane at the end of the night our plan was to head back here into tont toown and ride Mickey and Minnie's runaway Railway as The Last
Ride of the night unfortunately Mickey and min's was down so we were not able to ride it however Jessa an incredible cast member offered to take us through the queue since we live in Orlando we can ride the ride whenever we want but we would never be able to experience that queue so we're going to share with you the private tour that we just got of the queue of Mickey and Minnie's runaway Railway but before we do that I want to thank you so much for watching this video I hoped it helped you to feel
better about using the lightning Lane service next time you're here at Disneyland Resort if it did help us out give this video a like subscribe to our Channel and then ring that Bell that way you'll be notified whenever new videos like this come out I also want to give a huge thank you to our patreon family we're actually only here in Anaheim thanks to the support of our patreon community if you'd like to join them and get access to special bonus content head on over to patreon.com Scouts until next time don't forget to think happy
thoughts everybody we'll see you again real soon now let's go on that tour through Mickey and Minnie's runaway Railway we got some things here from kepon first off we got the first hot dog ever cooked just don't eat it we also got this comically large ticket [Music] and know they did tell us that the magic beans beans were just props but I guess they Li because it has grown through our ceiling oh dear no we still haven't fixed that H it's a good thing you don't get much rain here in Anaheim that is good but
when it does happen it's a mess mess oh yeah [Music] I theoretically was alive for that but I don't remember it we've got the desk here from Christmas now that is that's probably my favorite and then this of course we have the mouse cadu now these are from the newer shorts that Paul rudish animated and this counil M she's actually the hardest working in in the El theater always going she never sus thank you so this was wonderful and such an amazing treat this is our last day here in Anaheim and I'm this was just
the perfect way to cap it thank you so much of course any time [Music] e
