2024 Shanghai Disneyland Disney Premier Access Guide

The days when the FastPass system was complimentary are a thing of the past. Many parks around the world have done away with the free FastPass system and instead introduced paid systems that allow visitors to skip lines at different intervals. These new systems are divided into Disney Genie+ for Disney Parks in the US and Disney Premier Access for Disney Parks outside of the US.

With the opening of Zootopia land, you can now skip-the-line for Zootopia: Hot Pursuit with Single DPA, Carefree Set of 6, and Disney Concierge Services. However, please be aware that you might miss some scenes in the queue area when using the Disney Premier Access entrance for Zootopia: Hot Pursuit.

How to Skip-the-Line in Shanghai Disneyland

Guests can purchase Disney Premier Access after entering the park on Shanghai Disney Resort Official App or when purchasing tickets on the Shanghai Disney Resort Official Website or third-party vendor like KLOOK.

There are 8 sets of priority access options to choose from, each consisting of 3 to 12 rides. However, you are not allowed to customize your selection by skipping lines for specific rides. You must select from the predetermined sets of attractions. You can also purchase Disney Premier Access for a single attraction.

Shanghai Disneyland also offers Disney Concierge Services with priority access at the gate entrance and reserved viewing areas for the Mickey’s Storybook Express and the ILLUMINATE! A Nighttime Celebration.

How much does Disney Premier Access cost?

The cost of Disney Premier Access differs based on the specific attraction, date, and level of demand. Prices can range from CNY 140 to CNY 1784 per person. To find the most up-to-date prices, you can refer to the official app or consider using a third-party provider such as KLOOK at a discount price.

Is Shanghai Disneyland Premier Access Worth it?

Shanghai Disneyland Premier Access is a service that allows you to skip the regular lines and enjoy priority access to some of the most popular attractions in the park. Disney Premier Access varies depending on the number of attractions and shows you want to include. But is it worth the money? Some of the benefits of Premier Access are:

• You can save time and avoid long waits in the heat or cold.
• You can experience more attractions in one day and make the most of your visit, specially during peak and holiday seasons.
• You can choose when to use your Premier Access, as long as it is within the same day of purchase.

Some of the drawbacks of Premier Access are:

• It is an additional cost on top of your park admission ticket.
• It does not guarantee immediate access to the attraction, as there may still be a short wait in the Premier Access line.
• Disney Premier Access for shows are sold seperately.
• It may not be worth it if the park is not very crowded or if you are not interested in the attractions that offer Premier Access.

Ultimately, whether Shanghai Disneyland Premier Access is worth it or not depends on your personal preferences, budget, and expectations. Some people may find it a worthwhile investment to enhance their Disney experience, while others may prefer to save money and plan their visit during slow seasons.
