Hi Charles. Thanks for trusting planDisney with your question! I am so happy you are here.
I couldn't help but giggle a little when I saw your question because I feel like I add a "Bonus" traveler to just about all of our Disney vacations. Our crew is always growing and we are thrilled that we can share the magic with friends and family, even when they are a little late to the plan.
It sounds like you have made the excellent choice to stay in what we call, "The Disney Bubble" and enjoy the experience of a
Walt Disney World Resort hotel. So, you have a few options to add a Guest to your Resort Reservation:
1. Many Resort Reservations can be changed online by logging in to your
My Disney Experience account, clicking "My Plans" and scrolling down to "My Plans, Reservations and Tickets." If your Resort Reservation shows the "Change Reservation" button, select that and easily add your lucky new guest.
2. You can also chat with a helpful and friendly
Cast Member by phone by calling the number listed under "Disney Resort Hotel Reservations." Bonus: you will likely have the opportunity to listen to some of your favorite classic Disney music to start the vacation vibes early!
Please do keep in mind that each category of Walt Disney World Resort Hotel Rooms has a person-limit. If you need to change your Resort Hotel Reservation to another category to accommodate more Guests, the phone option is probably the better choice.
Charles, I have learned that traveling with a large group is much easier when everyone has the latest version of the My Disney Experience Mobile App loaded and ready before arriving in Orlando. That way, your friends and family have access to all of the plans that you have made right at their fingertips!
I know that you are about to have an incredible vacation and am thrilled that you allowed me to help you plan it. Please come back and visit us at
planDisney with any other questions.
