Hi Jeni! Welcome to planDisney.
How excited is the whole gang to be headed to
The World's Most Magical Celebration 50 yEARS in the making? Indulge in specialty-themed treats found in the
50th Anniversary Celebration Sips and Bites Guide. At
Magic Kingdom Park, try the Pressed Penny Silk Pie and Walt's Chili-Cheese Dog from
Casey's Corner. You can find more options on the
My Disney Experience Mobile App under "50th Anniversary Fun Has Begun."
So, I have good news for you. As long as you have a valid
Disney Resort Collection hotel reservation and are making
Advance Dining Reservations with yourself as the primary contact, you can absolutely secure those reservations. In fact, I recently did the same thing myself. While you have the option to link everyone's name specifically to those reservations, it is not necessary. However, adding individuals linked to your "Family & Friends List" will populate those reservations in their plans on the app. Thus, I recommend doing this if possible.
Be sure to take advantage of all your Disney Resorts Collection
Resort Benefits. One of my favorites is the 30-minute
Early Theme Park Entry at all four theme parks. This gives you the advantage of beating the crowds to those highly coveted attractions. No matter which park you visit, make sure to stay until the sun goes down and Disney icons come to shimmering EARidescent life during
Beacons of Magic. My favorite is
Spaceship Earth at
EPCOT.
Keeping it Magical,
Cindy
