Hello there, Tiffany! I'm so happy you came to planDisney with your question, and I hope we can get you some answers to help you make the most of your time in the Happiest Place on Earth.
It sounds like you're already considering one of my favorite planning tools,
Disney Genie+ Service! It offers Guests so many great benefits, from booking your
Lightning Lane entrances to enjoy select attractions with shorter wait times, to the unlimited downloads of your
Disney PhotoPass images, to some really fun
augmented reality Disney PhotoPass lenses available within the Disneyland mobile app. Talk about "phenomenal cosmic powers!"
Now, I think you may be referring to the cost of adding on the Disney Genie+ Service at the time of your ticket or vacation package purchase. In this case, advance purchase of Disney Genie+ Service will apply to all the days of your ticket, at the price quoted to you when you make your ticket selection. You'll see the option to add Disney Genie+ Service on the screen titled, "Add Convenience to Your Day" within the
theme park tickets page which offers other optional add-ons like parking vouchers.
Alternatively, you may opt to purchase Disney Genie+ Service for an individual day once you arrive for your visit. In this case, you will need to wait until you enter a theme park and scan your valid park ticket at the gate. Then, you may make your Disney Genie+ Service directly in the
Disneyland mobile app. You can find this right on the home screen of the app, with buttons to "Purchase" or "Get Details" on Disney Genie+ Service. Prices and availability do vary by date.
I hope this is a helpful start, Tiffany, but please don't hesitate to
come back and visit us again at planDisney. We'd love to help share any recommendations about optimizing your use of the Disney Genie+ Service or anything else that might be on your mind as you plan your upcoming visit!
Wishing you
Wondrous Journeys,
Tishra
