Hi Sarah! Welcome to planDisney. We love it when Guests reach out to us with their wonderful questions!
Family trips to the
Walt Disney World Resort are just so magical. There's something extra special about the experiences you have, the plans you make, and the memories you create together. One of my favorite things about visiting with loved ones is when I get to experience a first. Whether it's a first
character meeting, a first
dining experience in Cinderella Castle, or a first
thrill ride, you'll never forget that smile, that laughter, or that look of awe. After all, the real magic is created by being together.
To begin planning together, ensure that each of you has your own
My Disney Experience accounts. Then, you can link to each other through the
My Family & Friends page by selecting "Add a Guest" and following the prompts. This will send an email request to the other members of your travel party and once they accept, go back to the My Family & Friends page, find their name, and select "Update." If you'd like to be able to see
all of each other's plans, select "All My Plans" and hit the blue "Save" button.
To request adjoining rooms, you can fill out an
online request form or
call the resort. Please keep in mind that you should do this sooner rather than later and that while Cast Members try their best to accommodate requests, they are not guaranteed. But don't worry, even if you don't get adjoining rooms, there are plenty of places to meet up in the
Disney Resorts Collection Hotels before heading out to the parks. This way, everyone gets ready on their own time, picks a place to meet, and starts their magical day!
Sarah, I hope you have a wonderful visit to the resort with your family. Be sure to check out the
EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival, which kicks off on July 27, 2023, and goes all the way until November 18, 2023. They just announced many of the menus for the
Global Marketplaces and I'm already drooling!
If you have any other questions,
please reach out to me and I'd be happy to help!
Today's special moments are tomorrow's memories,
Matt
