    Our family is arriving this fall. We have two rooms and two separate res. numbers. However, we would like to all have the same Lightning Lane reservations. Can one member of the group make the reservations for all of us, or is that done by res. num?

    Hi-ya, Pal!

    Welcome to planDisney, Kim! It is delightful to hear from you about your upcoming fall Walt Disney World Resort vacation. Autumn is my favorite time to visit the Most Magical Place on Earth. The weather is typically a bit cooler, crowds can be lighter and the decorations are amazing.

    When it comes time to purchase your Lightning Lane passes, yes, one member of your group can make the selections for all of you. You'll need to make sure that you are all connected through the My Disney Experience Family & Friends list. To add people, go to your Family & Friends list and tap "Add a Guest".

    If the Guest is already using a Disney account in connection with their vacation planning, you can:

     - Use the search tool to find them and invite them to connect
     - Look for them in "Guests You May Know"
     - Connect with them via a Walt Disney World Resort hotel reservation

    Once you have linked your profiles, have the person you'd like to select and purchase your Lightning Lane passes use the My Disney Experience mobile app to check if everyone is listed. While they won't be able to complete the purchase prior to 7 days before your arrival, they'll be able to go through the first steps to ensure everyone in your group is listed and it should even list the date each person is eligible to begin selecting Lightning Lane passes. 

    Once you add everyone in your travel party to your Family & Friends list, you can link tickets, make park reservations, link Resort hotel reservations, share photos—and plan your magical Disney vacation together!

    Have a wonderful vacation, Kim! If there is anything else we are able to assist you with, please come back and let us know. I would love to hear from you!

    Magical Wishes,

    Lauren

Meet the Panelist: Lauren, Colorado

Hi-ya, Pals! I'm Lauren, a wife and mother of three who's enjoyed many special occasions at Walt Disney World Resort with my family and friends. From graduations to birthdays, and even our Fairy Tale Honeymoon we’ve loved celebrating at the most Magical Place on Earth. I now have pre-teens who check wait times in the My Disney Experience App just for fun, so I look for any excuse to return "home" often and would love to help you plan a little extra Pixie Dust for your next magical adventure.
