Lightning Lane Sell-Out Times at Walt Disney World
A day-by-day calendar of when each Single Pass ride sells out, how often, and whether it comes back, measured from our own pricing checks on 147 days between April 11, 2026 and November 8, 2026.
Lightning Lane Premier Pass sell-outs
Dates where Disney stopped selling Premier Pass for a park. Future dates are checked once a day around 4 AM, so "gone by" is the first check where it was no longer offered; same-day times are accurate to about 30 minutes. A park that comes off same-day sale in the late afternoon isn't counted: that's Disney ending same-day sales, not a sell-out. Prices are the last price we saw.
No upcoming dates are sold out right now.

Sell-out calendar
Every tracked day since September 7, newest week first. Red is sold out and still gone at our last check (with the time it went), amber sold out then came back, struck-through was never on sale at any same-day check, green was on sale all day. Faded days had no same-day capture. November 8 may still be in progress (dashed).
Single Pass sell-out times by ride
Percentages are out of the days the ride was on sale at one or more of our same-day checks. Times are the first check where it was gone, so they're accurate to about 30 minutes.

Those days are left out of the percentages above: our checks only record whether a price was shown, so we can't tell a ride that sold out in advance from one that wasn't on sale or wasn't captured.
Gone before 7 AM and not back by our last check (excluded from the time columns, since same-day Single Pass sales for most guests open at 7 AM): TRON Lightcycle / Run 2 days; Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind 2 days.
Sell-outs by day of week
Share of on-sale days the ride was gone for the day, then the median time it went. A dash means fewer than 3 matching days, too few to show.

Multi Pass: days it stopped being offered
Multi Pass is one purchase per park-day. Counted only on checks that actually looked at the Multi Pass screen (recorded since July 19, 2026). Late-afternoon disappearances can be Disney ending same-day sales ahead of park close rather than demand; our checks don't record which.
| Park | Gone for the day | Median time gone | Earliest – latest | Days tracked |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Animal Kingdom | 67%68 days | 5:15 PM | 5:10 PM – 6:16 PM | 101 |

Does Lightning Lane sell out more on busy days?
For rides that don't sell out every day, we split the days we tracked at that ride's own median average standby wait, then compared how often the ride was gone for the rest of the day. "Busier" means a day at or above the median wait.
| Ride | Median wait | Gone on busier days | Gone on calmer days | Avg wait: gone vs still on sale |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Star Wars: Rise of the ResistanceHollywood Studios | 45 min127 days | 34%64 days | 6%63 days | 62 vs 44 min26 vs 101 days |
| Seven Dwarfs Mine TrainMagic Kingdom | 44 min116 days | 81%58 days | 76%58 days | 42 vs 42 min91 vs 25 days |
| Avatar Flight of PassageAnimal Kingdom | 50 min138 days | 30%69 days | 29%69 days | 52 vs 48 min41 vs 97 days |
Rides that sell out almost whatever the day looks like (gone for the rest of the day on 85% or more of the days they were on sale): TRON Lightcycle / Run (94% of 63 days); Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind (89% of 87 days). For these there is nothing to compare, so the practical advice is to buy as early as your booking window allows.
Small samples: each half above is only the number of days shown, and the rides that sell out only some days have fewer sell-out days still, so treat these as patterns, not rules. They will tighten as more days are tracked.
Methodology
- Source. RopeDrop's own Lightning Lane pricing captures from the Walt Disney World app: 12,122 same-day checks on 147 days between April 11, 2026 and November 8, 2026. 65 of those 212 calendar days had no same-day capture and are not counted.
- Timing. Checks run roughly every 30 minutes from early morning until late afternoon or early evening. A time shown is the first check where the ride was no longer offered, so the real sell-out happened within about 30 minutes before it. Nothing after our last check of the day is known.
- "Sold out" means "no price shown". Our checks see only whether a ride was on sale, not why it wasn't. A ride can drop off briefly for other reasons, which is why "gone for the day" is tracked separately from "sold out at least once".
- Excluded. Checks from our separate Premier Pass capture (it doesn't read Single Pass or Multi Pass prices; Premier sell-outs have their own section above), and checks made on earlier dates for future days. Rides need 10 or more on-sale days to be listed, and a median time needs 5 or more days.
Frequently asked questions
What time do Lightning Lane Single Passes sell out at Walt Disney World?
On days a ride sold out and stayed sold out through our last check of the day, the median time we first saw it gone for good was: Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind around 2:05 PM (75 days); TRON Lightcycle / Run around 2:15 PM (57 days); Seven Dwarfs Mine Train around 3:45 PM (92 days); Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance around 5:10 PM (26 days); Avatar Flight of Passage around 5:40 PM (42 days). Times are Eastern, from pricing checks about every 30 minutes, tracked April 11, 2026 to November 8, 2026.
Which Lightning Lane sells out most often at Disney World?
TRON Lightcycle / Run (Magic Kingdom) was gone for the rest of the day on 94% of the 63 tracked days it was on sale at our checks; it was never offered at any same-day check on another 84 days, which can mean it sold out in advance or wasn't on sale.
Do Lightning Lane Single Passes come back after selling out?
It depends on the ride. In our same-day checks, TRON Lightcycle / Run sold out at least once on 61 days and stayed gone on 59; Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind sold out at least once on 79 days and stayed gone on 77; Seven Dwarfs Mine Train sold out at least once on 96 days and stayed gone on 92; Avatar Flight of Passage sold out at least once on 72 days and stayed gone on 42; Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance sold out at least once on 73 days and stayed gone on 26. Where the two numbers are far apart, the ride usually came back on sale later the same day after selling out, so it can be worth checking again.
Does Lightning Lane Multi Pass sell out at Disney World?
Share of tracked days Multi Pass stopped being offered and didn't come back before our last check: Animal Kingdom 67% of 101 days (median 5:15 PM); Magic Kingdom 8% of 101 days (median 5:10 PM); Hollywood Studios 3% of 101 days; EPCOT 1% of 97 days. Late-afternoon disappearances can reflect Disney ending same-day sales ahead of park close rather than demand.
Does Lightning Lane sell out more on busy days?
For the Single Pass rides that do not sell out every day, yes: Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance was gone at close on 34% of its busier days vs 6% of its calmer days; Seven Dwarfs Mine Train was gone at close on 81% of its busier days vs 76% of its calmer days; Avatar Flight of Passage was gone at close on 30% of its busier days vs 29% of its calmer days. A "busier" day is one where the ride's own average standby wait was at or above its median for the days we tracked. Some rides sell out almost regardless of how busy the day is: TRON Lightcycle / Run (94% of days), Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind (89% of days). For those, buying early matters more than the crowd level.
