Disney World Lines (TP)

Our last trip to WDW was a bit more magical and care-free thanks to Lines and UnOfficialGuide -crew. If you are going to WDW you'll need this app! It gives you touring plans or you can make your own one! Saves hours standing in line. Superb!

I know you are thinking how can something so cheap be worth it for planning an expensive vacation. Frankly, it is worth 10 times the money at least. I used this in Oct of 2017 for WDW. I planned for my family and for my in-laws to meet us at the parks for a few days. The planned worked perfectly! Used again Oct 2019 for WDW, for Universal in July of 2021, and now again July 2024 for WDW. Touring Plans makes it so you can see where one ride is to another, how long a ride or show is, and really line up your day. It shows you the expected crowd at the park which helps to choose which park to do. And it shows you a list of what is available to do in each park. There is more than you might think. You should check into each one. Some of the most surprising things are the ones you would otherwise walk by like Mickey’s Philharmagic in MK. Great show and especially for the afternoon when you need to recharge. Line up you day! It takes time to go through the pavilions in Epcot. Touring Plans tells you how long it will take you to walk from Norway to Canada. You need to think ahead if you want to eat in Italy after hanging out in France. Touring Plans helps you get that list down of things you want to do and plan them out so you actually do them. It helps you add in the hidden gems that without Touring Plans you would walk by. It gives you a plan so you know where you will be when your family will want to eat. You look into what is available in that area and know in advance what direction to go. No one wants to walk around more or wait for you to read off a bunch of different menus to them so they can all vote in 90* heat. You know what your family likes. You know what you like. Touring Plans helps you to make a trip filled with only your likes. This is a must.

I’m not a big app review guy, but need to spread the word on this. 25$ish for a year of this app with the touring plans tailor made for you and Lines which is much more accurate than Disney’s own. Or you could pay 30 per person per day. We got on every ride in the park…some multiple times.

I’m trying to create an account and after entering a username, email address and password & confirming my password all I get in response is “There was a problem” with a simple option of choosing “Ok”. That is NOT helpful. Is my username already taken? Does the password require a special character? What the heck? How do I even know what to fix?

I absolutely will not visit Walt Disney World without this app! It helps me make the best decisions and maximize our fun in the parks. Trust these numbers!

More accurate by far than the official one

This app is helpful on many levels, including ride wait times and touring plans for the parks. But the most helpful aspect for me is the community conversations in “chat” as well as the discussion forum.

I swore by this app 7 years ago. In our trip this past week over Spring Break / Easter week (i.e., peak crowds), it wasn’t needed and it didn’t work as expected when trying to use with genie plus and individual lightning lanes. 1. It was difficult to add in and change details on genie plus return times, individual lightning lane, and virtual queues. I never really figured this out so it made my plan for the day useless. 2. The plans didn’t include any real strategy for genie plus, individual lightning lanes, or virtual queues. I had to look elsewhere for detail on how to approach these for my family. I would have expected the plans would tell you exactly what to do so you could be ready at 7am to book each of these. 3. The best part of touring plans is the detail on the attractions and dining. This is all freely accessible on the website and does not connect into the app. 4. The Disney My Experience app worked really well and effectively replaces the need for Touring Plans Lines.

Using Touring Plans saves us waiting in line time by optimizing the best path for the attractions we want to visit.

We didn’t use any plans during our WDW visit last week, but the ride and dining information was invaluable! The “expected wait” times were always bang-on for us.
