Welcome back to planDisney, Becky! We're glad you're here!
I'm so excited to hear that you'll be visiting The Happiest Place on Earth in a few days! One of my favorite parts of the planning process is making advance dining reservations. I can often spend hours perusing menus online! A few of my favorite dining locations include
Cafe Orleans and the
Plaza Inn inside Disneyland Park and
Wine Country Trattoria and
Carthay Circle in Disney California Adventure Park.
Unlike the My Disney Experience app at Walt Disney World Resort, the
Disneyland Mobile app does not have a Family & Friends feature to connect plans with other guests. Unfortunately, only the guest who booked the dining reservation can see it in their Disneyland app. However, you can send a screenshot of the confirmation to everyone in your traveling party so they can put it on their calendar.
If you plan to use
Disney Genie+ during your trip, at least one person in your traveling party should link all the theme park tickets to their Disneyland account. Tickets can be linked to more than one account, so they should also link them to their own account if they have one. This way, you can make
Lightning Lane reservations for your entire group all at once!
I hope this helps, Becky! Make sure to read up about all the
seasonal offerings and attraction overlays at Disneyland Resort, and don't miss
Haunted Mansion Holiday. It will have you shouting, “Season’s Screamings!”
