Hey Elesa,
Thanks for stopping by planDisney! You’ll be in Walt Disney World soon, and I can totally relate to checking the My Disney Experience app in anticipation of my vacation!
You can certainly add your
Disney Genie service customizations before your Disney vacation. Visit the “My Day” tab in your My Disney Experience app, and click “Get Started Now.” You’ll begin by giving details like the date of your visit, the park you are visiting, and who is in your party. Then you’ll get to the fun stuff! You can choose your top picks for attractions, entertainment, dining, and Enchanting Extras. As much as I would love to just “select all,” it’s best that you choose a few from each category so the Disney Genie service can focus on what to prioritize. Next, you’ll choose your interests, like certain characters, experience types, and dining styles. Once you complete your selections, you’ll return to the “My Day” tab with Disney Genie’s recommendations on how to spend your day!
You can complete this process at any time before or during your visit, Elesa. If you change your plans, the option to “Edit Trip Preferences” will be at the top of the “My Day” tab. It will take you back to the selection process where you can change the park and make new selections for your top picks.
Disney Genie will update throughout the day with recommendations. I love it when the Genie tells me when it is the best time to
Mobile Order a snack! If you’re wondering about a certain attraction or dining option, you can switch over to the “Tip Board” tab to see all current attraction wait times and
Lightning Lane Multi Pass or Single Pass availability, as well as current Mobile Order windows,
dining Walk-Up Availability, or which restaurants have reservations available.
Have fun exploring the Disney Genie service, Elesa. And I hope you have the most magical visit to Walt Disney World Resort. If you have any questions in the future, please come back and see
me at planDisney!
