What is the definitive guide to skipping lines at Disneyland by Hilary Erickson?

Hilary Erickson has shared several tips on how to skip lines at Disneyland:

1. Early Morning Arrival: Arrive early to beat the crowds. The first couple of hours usually have shorter wait times.

2. Genie+: This is a paid service ($25/day/person) that allows you to book a Lightning Lane for your ride of choice. While you're not exactly skipping the line, you're significantly reducing your wait time.

3. Virtual Queues: These are used when a ride has just opened. You reserve your spot in the queue early in the morning through the app.

4. Single Rider Lines: Some rides have single rider lines that allow you to fill seats that would otherwise go unused.

5. Rider Swap: If you have members of your party that can't ride, you can use rider swap. One parent rides with the kids, then the other parent gets to ride with two other people using the rider swap card.

6. VIP Tours: These are private tours that offer expedited access to rides, reserved viewing for shows, and dining reservations. However, they are quite expensive.

Remember, these strategies may not work for everyone and it's important to plan your day according to your group's preferences and needs.
