Welcome to planDisney, Mary!
Close your eyes. Can you picture it? Tall spires that stretch towards the sky, the shimmer of EARidescent hues and glimmers of gold here and there. Yes, I’m describing Cinderella Castle, but you won't have to close your eyes and imagine its beauty much longer since you will be at Walt Disney World Resort in less than ONE WEEK! Hooray!
It sounds like you are trying to get your (Donald) ducks in a row before you set off on your magical adventure, and you need a little help adding an individual to your
Family & Friends list. It’s quite easy to do via your
My Disney Experience mobile app, Mary, and I would be happy to walk you through the proper steps.
- Click the three horizontal lines in the bottom right corner of the app and go to your profile.
- Select “Show My Linking Code” from the options on screen.
- Click “Show My Linking Code.”
- Have the person you wish to add scan your linking QR code if they are with you at the time. If not, give them the “Manual Code” that’s below the QR code. If they have to enter the Manual Code, the instructions on how they use that code are on the drop-down options that says “How to manually enter a code.” These codes are only valid for 30 minutes, so make sure you are both ready when you start the process.
Alternatively, you can add them if you log into your
My Disney Experience account online, go to your Family & Friends list, and click on “Add a Guest” at the bottom of the page. Select “I’ll enter their name and age” from the options on screen, then input their name, age, and date of birth. Select “Invite this Guest to connect” on the screen and enter their email address. They will receive an invitation to plan with you in their email inbox. All they have to do is accept your invitation through the email they receive. If you have any issues linking your accounts, I suggest calling (407) 939-4357 for further assistance.
If you were instead asking how to add an individual to your
Disney Resorts Collection hotel reservation, you can do so by clicking on "Change Reservation" on your My Plans page in your My Disney Experience account and updating your travel party. However, it may be best that you call (407) 939-1936 for help from a friendly Cast Member since you are just days away from your arrival.
I hope this information proves helpful, Mary. If you have any other questions pop up, please stop back by and let us know. Enjoy every moment of your magical vacation, and say hi to Mickey for me!
See ya real soon,
Alyssa
