Magic Kingdom Lightning Lane Rides

You might be wondering how many rides in Magic Kingdom have Lightning Lane. There are two different types of Lightning Lane rides at Magic Kingdom – those you can access with the Lightning Lane Multi Pass and those that require a Lightning Lane Single Pass. 

Magic Kingdom Multi Pass Rides

Magic Kingdom has the most attractions with a Lightning Lane of any Disney World theme park. 

Here are 18 Lightning Lane Multi Pass rides at Magic Kingdom:

• Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (closed for refurbishment until 2026)
• Jungle Cruise
• Peter Pan’s Flight
• Space Mountain
• Tiana’s Bayou Adventure
• The Barnstormer
• Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin (closed for refurbishment until 2026)
• Dumbo the Flying Elephant
• Haunted Mansion
• “it’s a small world”

Keep in mind that these rides are split into two “tiers” and you can only make one advance selection from the tier one group. Click here for a full explanation of the Lightning Lane tier system. 

Magic Kingdom Single Pass Rides

Two rides at Magic Kingdom aren’t included with the Multi Pass and require a separate Single Pass to access the Lightning Lane. The other Disney World theme parks each only have one attraction that requires a Single Pass. 

The Magic Kingdom Single Pass rides are: 

• Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
• TRON Lightcycle / Run

Keep in mind that TRON Lightcycle/Run previously had a virtual queue but that is no longer an option. 

Magic Kingdom Rides Without A Lightning Lane

Four rides at Magic Kingdom do not offer a Lightning Lane. They are:

• Prince Charming Regal Carrousel
• Astro Orbiter
• Carousel of Progress
• Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover

There’s no way to skip the line on these rides using a Lightning Lane. However, the only ride of these that regularly gets long lines is Astro Orbiter. I suggest riding it during Early Entry if it is high on your list of priorities. 

There are also many shows and character meet and greets at Magic Kingdom, and none of these offer a Lightning Lane.

Now on to the last Disney World theme park with Lightning Lanes, Animal Kingdom!

Animal Kingdom Lightning Lane Rides

Animal Kingdom is the only park that DOESN’T have a tier system, so you can choose from any of these attractions for your three advance selections. 

Animal Kingdom Single Pass Ride

There is only one ride at Hollywood Studios that isn’t included with the Multi Pass and requires a separate Single Pass to access the Lightning Lane. 

The Animal Kingdom Single Pass ride is:

Flight of Passage is usually the ride with the longest wait time in all of Walt Disney World so it’s a good one to consider for Lightning Lane Single Pass. 

The only ride at Animal Kingdom that doesn’t offer Lightning Lane is the Wilderness Express Train.
