Hi Jayne,
We are delighted to see you stopping by planDisney with a question! To add someone to your Family & Friends List, you may do so on the Walt Disney World® website or through the
My Disney Experience Mobile App. Once you log into your MyDisney account on the website, click on My Disney Experience, then click on My Family & Friends, and then click on Add a Guest. From the mobile app, click on the three bars in the bottom right of the screen. Scroll down to My Profile. Then click on the Family & Friends List tab. Once you add the guest, be sure to share all plans.
Once you have someone in your Family & Friends List, you should be able to add them to other plans like
advanced dining reservations or special experiences with the
Enchanting Extras Collection. If you have a vacation package reservation and need to add a guest, you can try modifying that package online but you may need to
call to speak with a cast member in Disney Resort Hotel Reservations.
Looking at your arrival date, your
advanced booking window for dining reservations will soon open. Prior to making reservations, my family decides which dining locations we want to experience and then I prioritize those that are the most popular. When our booking window opens, I try to reserve the most popular locations first.
Jayne, I am so happy to see you finalizing those plans and am thrilled that you have some time! Since it sounds like you are going with family or a group, be sure to also consider matching gear. My girls and I love to wear
matching shirts. I do have one last tip - visit the
EPCOT International Festival of the Arts. It is a wonderful experience!
Magic and memories,
Donyell
