5. Disney changes early morning Lightning Lane purchase policy 

Disney has changed its policy for early morning Lightning Lane purchases, and is now releasing ALL availability for Lightning Lane individual attractions at 7:00 AM (when only resort guests can make purchases), and not releasing additional availability at theme park opening. This means that guests who are not staying on site may not be able to purchase Lightning Lane skip-the-line passes for Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, which has been selling out prior to park opening.
