Hi Warren!
Thanks for stopping by to see us at planDisney! I'm so excited to help you get ready for your magical family vacation to Walt Disney World Resort. We visited the "Most Magical Place on Earth" with my parents in November and it was so much fun to enjoy the theme parks, Disney Resort hotels, and Disney Springs with multiple generations of our family.
My Disney Experience will be the perfect tool to help you manage all of your family member's tickets and plans. In fact, I used it to manage our family vacation, even though my parents had a different ticket type and length than my immediate family. The first thing you will need to do is add all of your family members to your
Friends & Family List. From your Friends & Family List, select 'Add a Guest' and then pick the selection to enter their name and age. Once they are added, you will be set up as the manager of their plans and once your entire family is added, you're ready to begin linking everyone's tickets.
If you haven't purchased theme park tickets yet, then the easiest way to
purchase them will be through the Walt Disney World Resort website. As part of your purchase, you'll select the number of days for your tickets, the options you would like to add to your tickets, and the member of your Friends & Family List who will be using the ticket. If you have already purchased your tickets, then you can link them to the correct person in your My Disney Experience account using the
Walt Disney World Resort linking tool.
Warren, be sure to download the
My Disney Experience mobile app because it will be the easiest way for you to manage your family's vacation plans both while you are preparing for your trip and while you're enjoying your visit! Also, don't forget that you will need both
theme park tickets and
theme park reservations for everyone who is 3 years old and above for each day they will be visiting the theme parks. Reservations are limited, so be sure to make them as soon as possible so you can enjoy the perfect vacation itinerary!
Let us know if you have additional questions as you continue planning. T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
