Maximizing Your Day at Disney World's Hollywood Studios

By Parkopia

Learn the ins and outs of Disney's new Genie+ system and how to navigate it during peak season at Hollywood Studios.

Disney World is all about having fun, but waiting in long lines can put a damper on your day. That's where Genie+ comes in to save the day!

Genie+ is Disney's new paid system for skipping long lines and experiencing more attractions in less time. But is it worth the extra cost?

After our experiment during peak season at Hollywood Studios, our answer is a resounding YES.

Our team split up into two - one using Genie+ and the other relying on the traditional standby line. The results? The Genie+ user was able to experience almost twice as many attractions.

So when should you use Genie+? We recommend it for peak season or if you have a limited time at Hollywood Studios.

But don't worry, we're not just here to tell you to pay for Genie+. We've got a few more tips and tricks up our sleeves to help you maximize your day at Hollywood Studios.

First, invest in a Disney World guidebook or download a wait time app like Undercover Tourist. These resources can help you plan your day by avoiding the longest lines.

Next, don't be afraid to take advantage of single rider lines. While they may not be available for all attractions, they can save you a significant amount of time.

Another tip is to utilize FastPass+ reservations for popular rides like Rise of the Resistance. These reservations are included with your park admission and can save you from waiting in the standby line.

And of course, always check the wait times before entering a line. If the wait seems too long, consider coming back later in the day when it's shorter.

Lastly, don't forget to take breaks throughout the day. It's important to pace yourself and recharge so you can fully enjoy your time at Hollywood Studios.

So go ahead and splurge on Genie+ during peak season, but don't forget to use these other tips to make the most of your day at Disney World's Hollywood Studios.
