From one Samantha to another, hello, and welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
I am so excited to hEAR that you are
planning a Walt Disney World Resort vacation with a big group of family members! That sounds like so much fun! As you get ready for your trip, be sure to check out these Disney Parks Moms Panel
tips for traveling with the entire family.
I would definitely recommend adding everyone in your travel party to your
My Disney Experience Family & Friends List. This will need to be done if your family wants to book their
FastPass+ selections together, or if your whole party is hoping to
join a boarding group for
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance together. Linking everyone in your group to your My Disney Experience account is also a good idea if you're planning to purchase
Memory Maker.
Memory Maker provides you with unlimited downloads of your
Disney PhotoPass Service pictures, and best of all, you can not only download your own photos, but also those of up to 25 members of your Family & Friends who share media with you. To share Memory Maker with your travel companions, you will need to make sure everyone in your party is connected to your My Disney Experience Family & Friends List. Once everyone is listed under your Family & Friends, click on each person's profile and check the box that says you wish to share Disney PhotoPass pictures with them. Once this has been done, any photos of those guests will show up in your account, even if your group splits up and has photos taken separately.
As long as your group consists of 25 or fewer people, there is no need to purchase more than one Memory Maker. You may all still share photos even if you have purchased your
vacation packages or
theme park tickets separately. Please keep in mind though that only the particular guest who purchases Memory Maker will be able to view and download the photos without the watermark. That person will need to download the pictures and share them with the rest of the travel party.
I hope that your Disney PhotoPass Service pictures help you relive your magical vacation memories for yEARs to come! If you have any additional questions as you plan your vacation, please visit us again. See ya real soon!
Samantha
