Hey there, Aaron! I'm happy to welcome you to planDisney with this great question!
I can totally relate to where you're coming from! When we visit Disney World with my brother's family, I'm the one who takes charge of managing our
Lightning Lanes,
dining reservations, and, honestly, everything else -- just like you! Let me guide you through the steps to
stay connected and manage your group's Lightning Lanes seamlessly.
To get started, your friend will need to grant you access to manage their plans. First, they'll need to log into their
My Disney Experience account and select "My Family & Friends." From there, they should choose the child's profile they wish to share and navigate to the "Friends & Family List" on the left side of the screen. Next, have your friend scroll down until they find your name and click on "Send Invite." You'll then receive an email invitation to manage the child's account. Once you accept the invitation, you'll have access to manage their plans, including booking their Lightning Lanes!
If you're having difficulty connecting everyone's account, don't hesitate to
reach out to a Disney World Cast Member. They'll be more than happy to assist you!
Aaron, I see you're arriving in April, which is a truly bibbidi bobbidi BEAUTIFUL time to visit! The
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival will be in full bloom, adding an extra layer of magic to your trip! This lively festival features
vibrant topiaries of beloved Disney characters, breathtaking gardens, and colorful floral displays throughout the park. You can also enjoy the Outdoor Kitchens, located around World Showcase, offering delectable dishes inspired by international flavors from around the globe. It's the perfect season to soak in the beauty of EPCOT!
Aaron, I'm wishing you the BEST VACATION EVER!! Vacationing with friends is always a blast, and I'm so excited for you to create countless happy memories. Thanks for visiting us at planDisney!
See ya real soon,
