Hi, David! Welcome to planDisney!
My Disney Experience makes it easy to plan and organize all the pixie-dusted details of your
Walt Disney World Resort vacation, especially when you are traveling with a large group of family or friends. Before you visit The Most Magical Place on Earth, you'll want to make sure everyone in your travel party is linked to your My Disney Experience Family & Friends List. This will make it easy for everyone in your group to keep track of plans such as
Disney Park Pass and
dining reservations. It will allow everyone in your party to view each other's
Disney PhotoPass Service pictures. (Did you know that if one person in your group purchases
Memory Maker, they can download the photos of up to 25 members of their Family & Friends List who share media with them?) Linking everyone in your group to your My Disney Experience account will also be helpful if you're planning to
try for a Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance boarding group.
I just recently went through the process of adding Guests to my Family & Friends List for an upcoming trip I am planning with some of my fellow planDisney panelists. I'd be happy to walk you through the process, David. To add an adult Guest who has their own My Disney Experience account, you'll want to open your
My Disney Experience mobile app and click on the three lines in the bottom-right corner of the home screen. Next, scroll down and click on "My Profile." This will take you to the "My Account" screen. From there, you should click on "Family & Friends List." If you scroll down to the bottom of your Family & Friends List, you will see an option to "Add a Guest." Click on "I'll enter their name and age" to enter your friend or family member's information. Once you fill in their name and age, you can select "Share Planning with this Guest" and enter their email address. Your friend or family member can then check their email and accept your invitation to share plans. If the other Guests on your Family & Friends List check the option in their own My Disney Experience accounts to share their lists, you can then access the profiles of the other Guests on their lists as well.
If you run into any issues with getting everyone's My Disney Experience accounts linked, I recommend
calling the Help Center phone number for My Disney Experience. The Help Center Cast Members will be able to get everything sorted out for you faster than you can say, "Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo!"
If you have any additional questions as you get ready for your trip, please visit us again. Have a magical day!
