Yesterday was the first day on Genie+ for Pirates of the Caribbean. It is now a lightning lane attraction. You might be wondering how this will effect your experience. We spent the afternoon at Disneyland to find out.

First, anytime they put an attraction on Genie+, they intentionally only allow a small amount of LL folks. As a result, folks think the line time is unchanged. But as we’ve seen with runaway railway, months later they pack that line once people stop paying attention. So it won’t be today or tomorrow, but come summertime it will be horrendous. We also still haven’t gotten an accurate metric on how bad the line will be yet because the first day it rained, and today is sweethearts night so there are less guests today. Tomorrow (Wednesday) will be the first day where we can get an clear read on how bad it will actually be with their current LL amount allowed. Regardless, shame on them. This isn’t about wait times for them, it’s about money. Thanks so much David!

I am glad they are using previously dead space to make a new queue next to Haunted Mansion. I wish they would have a plan for other dead space, i.e. Hollywood Backlot and the Launch Bay areas.

I think they are going to have to take down the exterior holiday decorations on HM just because the weather will take such a toll on the appearance of the decorations if they leave them up. Will be interesting to see...

Disney has generated a problem that did not exist. We enjoyed Pirates since the line always was speedy and always moving. LL is generating a bottle neck that it did not have before. Its a shame Disney did this.

Believe me David, this is not just for you, this is the exact kind of nerd content I live for.

I disagree that Genine + is a value. It's a money-grubbing move by Disney while trying to hide the actual costs of a day by parsing it out with these extra "features". I've always loved going to the parks. I was even willing to pay the exorbitant prices to say at on property hotels for a more immersive experience. Once the Haunted Mansion is done, I've one more trip left in me. I'll pay for the "extras" but only one last time. It's no longer as fun. I don't want to have to pay extra and, more importantly, I don't want to spend the day on my phone to justify the cost of the extras. And, yes, I know I can just do standby. But as Genie + grows, so do wait times. Since I would like to do more than 3 "e ticket" rides in the day, there isn't a hella lot of choice for the non- annual passholder, non-California resident.

I love the videos when you talk about queue lengths and time. I'm interested in what you said about the mix in points for rides on Genie+ and whether Genie+ is a good deal for particular rides. Thanks for your videos!

Hopefully we'll get an updated Google Earth over Disneyland in a few months so we can check out the HM queue.

If there’s one thing to learn from this video it’s that Pirates is such an easy ride to load on. You can stack many people in those boats super quickly and they have a BUNCH of boats! Im glad that things are going smoothly so far!

And Disney adds another high pitched voice repeating the same phrase over and over again calling people friends. So much magic.

Even without the lightning lane being added, it seems like theres more people on the planet post Covid. That line was never that long where it weapped all the way towards HM.

I don't like Genie+ but i REALLY don't like sitting still and watching them wave 50 people through the LL. Makes me angry every time

I think the reason why Pirates is so busy is because both Haunted Mansion and Splash Mountain are down next door. 😢

I suspect its too early to see what the LL will really be like at POTC, however 20 mins in Standby seems great and not worth buying Genie+. I was on vacation at Disneyland when Genie+/LL rolled out. I did just about every ride in the park and never purchased Genie+. It can be done and I was glad to save the money and not be on my phone. It was a good vacation :)

I wonder if it was busier at pirates due to the rain and outdoor attractions being closed along with mansion being down?

I enjoyed your commentary Dave, made me laugh as you questioned it that it’s a “me thing” but that’s why we all watch. The comment about switch backs and them keeping people under cover being thoughtful was great.

Thank you, David, for my daily moment of Disneyland. I look forward to it every day, both as a moment of calm as well as looking forward to seeing changes that each day brings. Kudos and cheers!
