Hi Elizabeth,
Welcome to planDisney! Are you ready to open up a “whole new world”? With
Genie+ services, you can spend less time waiting in standby lines and more time experiencing some of your most favorite attractions at Walt Disney World Theme Parks. Be sure to check out tutorials online before next Saturday so that you can be fully prepared to use Genie+ to its full potential. Genie takes a little bit of a learning curve at first, but it will be as smooth as a magic carpet ride to navigate once you get the hang of it.
To add Genie+, make sure that your Theme Park tickets are linked to your
My Disney Experience account and that everyone in your party is on your
Family and Friends list. Also, if you are a
Walt Disney World Annual Passholder, you will need to wait to add on Genie+ until the day of your visit (but I’ll explain that later).
To add Genie+ to every day of your trip, please use the following steps:-Once logged onto your My Disney Experience account, navigate to “My Plans.”
-Next, click on “Tickets and Memory Maker.”
-When prompted, select “Change Ticket.”
-A new page will open, which will ask you to determine which ticket you would like to change.
-Under “Choose Which Tickets to Change,” select every ticket you want to have Genie+ access.
-Follow the on-screen prompts and add on Genie+.
If, for some reason, you are unable to add Genie+ or you are an Annual Passholder, you will need to wait to add on Genie+ services starting at midnight of Saturday, April 23rd (the day of your visit) or whatever your first Disney Park Pass Reservation date is. Please note that you will only be able to purchase Genie+ services for one day at a time and will need to repeat this process every day you plan to use Genie+ services.
To add Genie+ daily:-Log on to your
My Disney Experience mobile app.
-Click the three horizontal lines in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen.
- Select “My Genie Day” and click “Get Disney Genie+ Service.”
Once purchased, you will then be able to add your first Genie+ Lightning Lane experiences beginning at 7 am later that morning. One last pro tip for you, you do not need to stay up until midnight to purchase Genie+ services. If you are up, then feel free to do so; otherwise, I would wait until you wake up for your Theme Park day (provided it is before 7 am).
I hope you can add Genie+ and have all of your wishes granted for your vacation next week! If there is anything else we can help you with, come back and see us!
Happy Planning!
