Hello there, Jim. Welcome to planDisney and thanks for sharing your question with us. I too love having the convenience of Disney Genie+ Service when I'm visiting the Disneyland Resort. I mean, why wouldn't you want to unlock this phenomenal cosmic power?
I see your visit is quickly approaching (yay!) so let's get to your question. There are a couple of ways that you can add
Disney Genie+ Service to your theme park ticket, the first being as an add-on when making your initial ticket purchase. When making your ticket purchase, you will see the option to add Disney Genie+ Service to your park ticket.
Have you already purchased your park ticket? Not to worry, you can add Genie+ once you've been scanned in and entered the park. You can do this in the
Disneyland app by taking the following steps. Tap on the three horizontal lines in the bottom right and then tap on the "Tip Board" tile. Towards the top of the screen, you'll see the option to purchase Disney Genie+ for the day. Please keep in mind that Disney Genie+ Service is subject to availability and price varies.
Once you've purchased the service and after you've been scanned into the park, you can start making your
Lightning Lane selections. Now you're "one hop ahead of the hump" and on your way to having the best day ever!
Jim, I just know you're going to have a most magical visit to the Happiest Place on Earth. The
Disney100 Celebration is in full swing and there are two new nighttime spectaculars that are...well, spectacular! I personally loved
Wondrous Journeys. The
Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival will also be happening during your visit. My favorite dish was the Bulgolgi Fried Rice. I highly recommend checking out the
Disney Eats Foodie Guide and making a list of your must-try items.
I hope I was able to get you the information you need to summon Genie for your upcoming visit, Jim. If you have other questions, please come back to visit us. Until then, I wish you happy planning.
Have a magical day,
Michelle
