Disneyland Sets $40 Lightning Lane Price for ‘Rise of the Resistance’ Before Rapid Reversal

Overview

• On October 18, 2025, the Individual Lightning Lane for the Star Wars attraction hit $40, a 2025 high, then dropped to about $29 in the following days.
• Pricing for this single-ride access is dynamic at Disneyland Resort and typically sits in the high-$20 range.
• The nearly 20-minute, multi-system ride often exceeds 90-minute standby waits and experiences periodic downtime, fueling demand for paid entry.
• Reactions on X ranged from criticism that $40 is not worth it to support for higher fees that keep expedited lines faster.
• The move aligns with a wider industry shift, as Universal Orlando tested $24.99 Express Single Attraction Access on October 16 for select rides.
