Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. This week Disney dropped some updates on the new Cars and Muppets attractions coming to Disney World. How much would you pay to be able to skip every line at Magic Kingdom? $200? $300? $400? Well, Disney's newest Lightning Lane offering (that's like 3 now right?) the Premier Pass offers just that. For around $400, you can get one time access to every major attraction in the Magic Kingdom. But with 19 attractions included, is it even possible to experience them all or is the Premier Pass just another useless Disney upsell. In order to find out, we purchased the Premier Pass during our recent trip to see what you could realistically accomplish in a day and the results surprised even us. Submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode. Don't forget to check us out on: -Instagram -Facebook -Youtube Missing the smell of the parks?
