Greetings, Angie, and welcome to
planDisney, we thank you for your question!
Planning vacations to both
Walt Disney World Resort and
Disneyland Resort with friends and family is great fun and made easy by using the
My Disney Experience App and the
Disneyland App respectively. Angie, using both apps present many similarities and a few variations, especially with the ability to create a travel party.
While the
My Disney Experience App relies on planning with a Family & Friends list to create a travel party with an invitation via email or finding someone in an already created family and friends list for example, on the Disneyland App the process of creating a travel party involves linking valid theme park tickets to your Disney account.
To create your travel party on the Disneyland App, please ask your friends and family to download and create their own accounts on the Disneyland App. Please sign in to your Disneyland App, and select the
Feature Menu on the bottom right. On the new page select the
Tickets and Passes tile and then click on
Link Tickets & Passes. During this step, you will be able to scan the barcode of each person’s theme park ticket, or you can enter the ticket ID number manually. Your friends and family, who have created their own Disney accounts on the Disneyland App should also add everyone’s theme park tickets to their own account.
By performing theme park ticket linking, everyone will have facilitated planning together when using the many vacation essential features on the app, such as the
Disney Genie+ service to save time in select attraction queues, joining any
Disneyland Resort - Virtual Queues, adding people to
Disneyland Dining Reservations for standard reservations as well as
joining walk-up waitlists at select Disneyland Resort dining venues and much more.
Tip:By purchasing the Disney Genie+ service either during your Disneyland Resort theme park ticket purchase or as soon as you have entered a theme park via the Disneyland App, you will enjoy unlimited digital downloads of
Disney PhotoPass photos from your day. This is another great reason to link everyone’s valid theme park tickets to your Disney account, to capture all memories to reflect on for years to come.
Angie, it was my pleasure assisting you today, if you have any other questions feel free to visit us again soon – thank you!
Best Disney Wishes!
