Hiya, Amanda, and a very warm welcome back to
planDisney! We’re so glad you brought us another great question.
It looks like your magical visit to the
Happiest Place on Earth is just a few days away… let the countdown begin! As for pre-purchasing
Disney Genie+ service ahead of your visit, unfortunately, at this time, there isn’t a way for
Magic Key holders to purchase Genie+ ahead of their reserved park visit. So, you’ll need to wait until you’ve entered Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park to add Genie+ service to your ticket, and you’ll need to add it each day of your vacation upon entering one of the theme parks.
But not to worry, Amanda! I’m happy to report that adding Genie+ is a quick, simple process that you can perform within minutes, as long as you’re prepared ahead of time. So, you’ll want to make sure you have the
Disneyland app downloaded on your mobile device before you arrive. As soon as your tickets are scanned into either theme park, simply open your app, and tap on the three lines in the lower right corner. Select “My Genie Day” and look for “Get Disney Genie+ Service.” Now, tap “Get Disney Genie+ Service,” again, and you’ll be prompted to select which tickets are eligible to add Genie+ for that day. Select the tickets you’d like to add the service to, complete your purchase, and you’ll be all set!
Last but not least, I also recommend checking the
Entertainment Schedule so you can start mapping out your magical plans. I bet you’ll even get a peek at some of the holiday décor as it’s being set up for the beginning of the
Holidays at the Disneyland Resort on November 11, 2022!
If you have any additional planning questions, please stop by again, Amanda… we’re all EARs!
See ya’ real soon,
Kristin
