Hey there, Diana!
It's so fun to have you here with us at planDisney! And it's just as fun to hear you're planning all the magic for everyone in your Walt Disney World Resort vacation party!
I completely agree with you that the
My Disney Experience mobile app adds lots of convenience for sharing and managing all your Walt Disney World Resort vacation plans. On top of that, I think the Mousketeers you're vacationing with will appreciate some of the helpful features they can use such as
mobile food and beverage ordering,
Disney MagicMobile Service, and
Disney PhotoPass photos and videos.
There are a few different options for the others in your vacation party to add each other to their
Family & Friends lists. You can find the options under the
"Add a Guest" feature.
It's possible that some among the group might already be connected, and the "Find through my connected Guests" could work well. If any of the others have their own Resort reservation, they can do a look up by Resort reservation confirmation number. A third option is to use the "I'll enter their name and age" feature to invite others to connect by sending an email invitation. With this option, they will want to enter the name of the person they wish to add, set the person's age as 18+, and choose "Invite this Guest to connect" to enter the person's email address. Once that person receives and accepts the email invitation, the Family & Friends connection is set up.
If anyone needs assistance in setting up their Family & Friends list, they can reach out to the Walt Disney World Internet Help Desk at (407) 939-4357 or
through online chat.
One additional quick reminder I'll add is that everyone in the group will want to have theme park reservations made through the
Disney Park Pass system to visit the theme parks.
Diana, here's wishing you and everyone in your group a wonderful Walt Disney World Resort vacation!
Jerry
