I’m inclined to agree with this theory, and know that guest satisfaction with Genie+ has been low by Walt Disney World’s standards. Given that, many may opt not to buy again after being burned once or twice would make sense. On busy days, the average guest only gets 3-4 Lightning Lanes–and that’s if they start booking them at or around 7 am. As for why it didn’t sell out on Tuesday–a cheaper and busier day than Monday–some readers theorized that tourists who arrived on Sunday and bought it that day or on Monday may have been dissatisfied. Our expectation is that the price jumps back to $29 this coming weekend, and potentially sells out again. It’s interesting that Genie+ sold out on Sunday and Monday, but no days since.
Suffice to say, those 10/10 crowd levels are not in the rearview mirror, and won’t be until February 27, 2023. There’s also the Princess Half Marathon this upcoming weekend, and a couple of large youth sporting events at ESPN Wide World of Sports. Mardi Gras is another huge factor, and many schools are off this entire week as a result. That is not just due to the Presidents’ Day long weekend. In any case, we previously predicted that this would be the Worst Week of Winter 2023 at Walt Disney World. It’s too early to tell what the ultimate crowd level will be today, but it’s currently below 10/10. Yesterday was not quite as bad, with an average of “only” 53 minutes–which was still enough for a 10/10 crowd level.
Thus far, Tuesday has been the busiest day of the holiday week with 10/10 crowd levels and an average wait time of 61 minutes. If you’re assuming both the lower price and the service not selling out are due to lower crowds following the holiday weekend, you are incorrect. It has been that price every day since, and has yet to sell out again. On Tuesday, the price of Genie+ dropped back down to $22 per person (pre-tax). On both days, Genie+ was priced at $29 per person, before tax. On Presidents’ Day, it sold out sometime between 1:30 pm and 2:15 pm EST, which was later than it sold out Sunday. In addition to selling out on Sunday, Genie+ also sold out on Monday (Presidents’ Day) at Walt Disney World. Let’s actually start with the latest on Lightning Lanes in case you’ve missed the updates in Genie+ Sells Out for First Two Times at Disney World. We now have more details & start dates to share, along with some commentary. One of those is changes to PhotoPass offerings, some of which would now be “free” to buyers of Genie+ (paid FastPass) and Annual Passholders. Last month, Disney announced 3 BIG Changes Coming to Walt Disney World to Improve Guest Experience & Value.
