You can still buy the equivalent of Disneyland tickets with Genie Plus, but Genie+ is now called Lightning Lane Multi Pass. When buying eligible Disneyland tickets, you can add Lightning Lane Multi Pass during the ticket purchase. It currently starts at $34 per ticket per day.
If you’ve already purchased your Disneyland tickets, you may also be able to add Multi Pass through the Disneyland app before your trip. If that option isn’t available for your ticket, you can purchase it after entering a theme park on the day you visit.
The most important thing to understand with a multi-day ticket is that adding Lightning Lane Multi Pass during the original ticket purchase adds it to every day of that ticket. If you only want it for one or two days, waiting and buying it separately on those park days can make more sense.
Can You Buy Disneyland Tickets With Genie Plus?
Yes, but Disney no longer uses the Genie+ name.
Genie+ was renamed Lightning Lane Multi Pass. The current service still lets you choose arrival windows for participating Lightning Lane attractions rather than waiting in the full standby queue.
When purchasing eligible Disneyland theme park tickets through Disney, look for the option to add Lightning Lane Multi Pass during the ticket-buying process.
If you’re searching specifically for “Disneyland tickets with Genie Plus,” Lightning Lane Multi Pass is the current product you want.
How to Add Lightning Lane Multi Pass When Buying Disneyland Tickets
The easiest time to add Multi Pass is when you’re initially buying your Disneyland admission.
- Go to the official Disneyland ticket page.
- Choose the number of park days and guests.
- Select 1 Park Per Day or Park Hopper admission.
- Choose your eligible visit dates and starting park.
- Select Lightning Lane Multi Pass when Disney presents the available ticket add-ons.
- Review the complete ticket price before checking out.
Once Multi Pass is attached to the ticket, you don’t need to purchase it again when you arrive.
What Happens If You Add Multi Pass to a Multi-Day Ticket?
This is where I would stop and think before automatically selecting the add-on.
If you add Lightning Lane Multi Pass while initially purchasing a multi-day Disneyland ticket, the add-on applies to every day of that ticket.
For example, if you’re buying a 3-day Disneyland ticket and add Multi Pass during checkout, you’re purchasing three days of Multi Pass.
At the current starting price of $34 per ticket per day, that means at least:
| Ticket | Minimum Multi Pass Add-On |
|---|---|
| 1-Day ticket | $34+ |
| 2-Day ticket | $68+ |
| 3-Day ticket | $102+ |
| 4-Day ticket | $136+ |
| 5-Day ticket | $170+ |
Those figures are per person. Prices vary by date, so the actual cost may be higher.
For a family of four buying a 3-day ticket, adding Multi Pass to all three days starts at $408.
Can You Add Genie Plus to Disneyland Tickets Later?
Yes, although how you add Lightning Lane Multi Pass later can depend on your ticket.
If you’ve already purchased a ticket, open the Disneyland app and go to My Tickets & Passes.
If your ticket shows a Change Ticket option, select the ticket and look under the available add-ons for Lightning Lane Multi Pass. Eligible tickets may allow you to add it before the visit this way.
Not every ticket shows that option. Promotional tickets, certain third-party tickets and other ticket types may work differently.
If you can’t add Multi Pass ahead of time, you can still purchase it through the Disneyland app after scanning into Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure, subject to availability.
Can You Buy Lightning Lane Multi Pass for Just One Day?
Yes. This is one reason I wouldn’t necessarily attach Multi Pass to an entire multi-day ticket when I first buy it.
If I had a 3-day Disneyland ticket but only wanted Lightning Lane for one particularly busy park day, I could leave Multi Pass off the original ticket and purchase it for that individual day after entering the park.
That can save a substantial amount for families.
For example, at the $34 starting price, four people buying Multi Pass for one day spend at least $136. Buying it for all three days starts at $408.
How Much Does It Cost to Add Genie Plus to a Disneyland Ticket?
Lightning Lane Multi Pass currently starts at $34 per ticket per day. Prices and availability vary by date.
There isn’t a separate “Genie Plus ticket” anymore. You buy regular Disneyland admission and add Lightning Lane Multi Pass to that ticket.
If price is your main question, I keep that topic separate in my guide to the current Disneyland Genie Plus price.
What Do You Get When Multi Pass Is Added to Your Ticket?
Lightning Lane Multi Pass lets you select arrival windows for participating attractions during your park day.
Current eligible attractions include rides such as:
- Space Mountain
- Indiana Jones Adventure
- Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway
- Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run
- Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT!
- Incredicoaster
- WEB SLINGERS: A Spider-Man Adventure
The attraction list can change and Lightning Lane availability isn’t guaranteed.
Multi Pass also includes unlimited downloads of eligible Disney PhotoPass digital photos from the day you use the pass.

Some Lightning Lane Attractions Still Cost Extra
Adding Multi Pass to your Disneyland ticket does not give you every Lightning Lane at the resort.
Disney currently sells Lightning Lane Single Pass separately for:
- Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance
- Radiator Springs Racers
Those attractions are not included in Lightning Lane Multi Pass and have their own prices.
When Can You Start Using Multi Pass?
Buying Multi Pass in advance does not let you start making attraction selections before entering Disneyland.
At Disneyland Resort, you make your first Lightning Lane Multi Pass attraction selection after you’ve entered a theme park.
Once inside, open the Disneyland app and choose from the available Multi Pass attractions and arrival windows.
You can make another selection after redeeming your current selection or after two hours have passed since you made it, whichever comes first.
Do You Need Park Hopper With Lightning Lane Multi Pass?
No. Multi Pass can be added to both 1 Park Per Day and Park Hopper tickets.
If you have 1 Park Per Day admission, you use Multi Pass at participating attractions in that park.
If you have Park Hopper admission, the same day’s Multi Pass can be used for participating attractions in both Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure, subject to the normal Park Hopper and Lightning Lane rules.
Should You Add Multi Pass When You Buy the Ticket?
I think the decision is mostly about whether you know you’ll use it on every park day.
If I’m taking a short trip, prioritizing rides and already know I want Lightning Lane each day, adding Multi Pass while buying the tickets is convenient.
If I’m taking a longer trip and only expect to use Lightning Lane on one or two days, I would be more hesitant to attach it to the entire multi-day ticket.
In that situation, I would buy regular admission and add Multi Pass only on the days when I actually want it, subject to availability.
If your real question is whether the service justifies its price, that’s a different search intent. My is Lightning Lane worth it at Disneyland guide covers that comparison.
If You Already Bought Your Disneyland Tickets
If you’ve already purchased your admission and are trying to add what used to be called Genie+, I would check the Disneyland app first.
- Open the Disneyland app.
- Go to My Tickets & Passes.
- Look for Change Ticket under the ticket you want to modify.
- If available, choose the add-on options and select Lightning Lane Multi Pass.
- If the option isn’t available, wait until you enter the park and purchase Multi Pass from the Lightning Lane section of the Disneyland app.
So yes, you can still buy the equivalent of Disneyland tickets with Genie Plus. The product is now Lightning Lane Multi Pass, and the smartest time to add it depends on whether you want it for every day of your ticket or only selected park days.
For the admission itself, my main Disneyland tickets guide covers the current ticket types and purchasing options.
