Greetings, Chuck!
Welcome to planDisney with a great question. Your magical vacation is just a little bit more than a month away. Now is the time to add those finishing touches to your already well-planned vacation.
This is a great time of year to visit the Walt Disney World Resort because you can experience 2 amazing celebrations at the same time.
EPCOT’s International Flower and Garden Festival is my favorite EPCOT event. The creativity and detail of the topiaries on display bring some extra magic to the already beautiful flowers in bloom. The
Outdoor Kitchens add to the atmosphere with their wide variety of entrees and treats available. The
World’s Most Magical Celebration continues to delight and dazzles all who visit the Walt Disney World Resort during this 18-month long celebration. There are so many new experiences created just for the celebration, be sure to check them out. The
50th Anniversary Sips and Bites Guide will allow your taste buds to get in on the celebration.
I am an out-of-state Walt Disney World
Annual Passholder myself and I can guide you through the process of adding Genie+ to your Annual Pass for the day. First, you want to make sure that you and your family all have a Disney Park Pass reservation for the theme park that you plan to visit. All parks have limited availability, so if you have not done so already, you will want to make your reservations immediately. You will need to check the
Theme Park Reservation Availability Calendar for them and the
Annual Passholder calendar for yourself. If you are connected to your family in My Disney Experience, you can make reservations for everyone.
Annual Passholders can only add
Disney Genie+ to their ticket on the day they plan to visit a theme park. You can add Genie+ as early as Midnight, the morning of your visit. In the My Disney Experience mobile app, tap the
More icon [3 horizontal lines] and then select
My Genie Day. Scroll down to the purple banner and click on
Get Disney Genie+ for Today and then
Get Disney Genie+ Service. Confirm your party and complete your transaction. You can begin to make your first Genie+ selection at 7:00 AM. You will be able to make your next selection after you have redeemed your first experience.
I hope this helps with your planning and if you have any more questions, please come back and visit us again.
See ya real soon,
Andrea
