Hey there, Hope! Welcome to planDisney and thanks for stopping by with such a great question!
I am so thrilled to see that the magic is calling you, and you're answering the call by planning a magical adventure at The Most Magical Place on Earth. How exciting! But with My Disney Experience accounts, Family & Friends Lists and managers of plans, sometimes, it can be as confusing as it is magical. That's what we at planDisney are here for, Hope, and I am more than happy to help!
If someone else is the manager of your plans, have that person log into their
My Disney Experience account, hover over the My Disney Experience tab, click "
My Family & Friends," click "Update" next to your name, and click "Share Planning with Hope." Have them enter your email address to send you an invitation to manage your plans, and once you accept, you will be the manager of your plans.
Even when you are managing your plans, anyone connected to your My Disney Experience account via your Family & Friends List
can make plans with you and add you to a reservation. But Hakuna Matata! It means "no worries." If you make a
Disney Resort hotel,
dining or
Enchanting Extras Collection reservation on your My Disney Experience account, you are the manager of those plans, and not even the Guests on the reservation will be able to modify or cancel them from their account. To see who is on your Family & Friends List, log into your My Disney Experience account, hover over the "My Disney Experience" tab and click "My Family & Friends." Everyone listed here can make plans with you, and you can make plans with them, as easily as bibbidi ... bobbidi ... boo!
I hope this helps, Hope, and I hope you have the most magical and memorable Walt Disney World vacation! Please stop by any time with any questions you may have.
You've got a friend in me,
Mandy
