Hello, Erin! We'reWe're so glad you found us here at planDisney!
Now, it's so much easier to connect with
Family & Friends using a QR code! I actually learned this "trick" from my friend,
Alyssa, who is a Disney tech guru. First, open up your
My Disney Experience app, tap the three stacked lines in the lower right corner, and find your profile. Scroll to the bottom where it says, "Show My Linking Code." When someone scans this unique QR code with their mobile device, you'll be added to their Friends & Family list, and you can share plans. They can also manually enter your code number, or you can take a screenshot if you cannot scan the Linking Codes in person. It works just like magic, minus the wand. Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!
Unfortunately, you can only generate a QR code if you are an account holder; Managed Guests in your account may show up under their "Connected Guests" once your friends add you, or they may need to be added manually (there are directions on the Walt Disney World website). Keep in mind that the code will expire after 30 minutes. If you need any technical help, reach out to the Internet Help Desk at (407) 939-4357.
Connecting ahead of time is essential if you plan to make
Disney Genie+ Lightning Lane selections or Individual Attraction Selections together. You'll also need it if you want to join the virtual queue boarding group for
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. This attraction is so much fun, and it's even better if you ride with a group. I love predicting what song from Star-Lord's awesome Mixtape we'll get next!
Have a great time, Erin! If you need anything else, the planDisney Panel is all ears!
