Hiya, Kristin! I'm so glad you soared on your magic carpet and landed here at planDisney!
I'm so excited to hear that you're planning to visit
Walt Disney World Resort this summer! There's so much to see and do with
The World's Most Magical Celebration in full swing. Take some time to check out the enchanting
Beacons of Magic in each of the parks, which light up the night in new and exciting ways! My favorite way to end a magical evening is with a few
celebratory desserts to make sure that my day ends on a sweet note.
Kristin, it sounds like you're looking to add phenomenal cosmic powers to your trip by adding the
Disney Genie+ service! Your wish is my command! I'd love to help you to
add this feature to your theme park tickets. There are two ways that you can do this!
- First, if you'd like to add Disney Genie+ service to all park days, you can do this through your My Disney Experience app. Log into the app and tap the icon that looks like three stacked lines in the bottom right corner. Tap Tickets and Passes, then tap the first ticket you'd like to upgrade. Look for "Change Ticket," then continue the prompts to upgrade to Disney Genie+ service and complete your purchase. You'll want to do this for each Guest's ticket you'd like to change! Ta-da! You'll be ready to make your reservations starting at 7:00 AM EST each morning of your trip.
- You could also add Disney Genie+ service day-by-day, or for select days of your trip. To do this, you will add this feature through the My Disney Experience app on the morning of each day of your trip. I'd recommend adding Disney Genie+ service before 7:00 AM EST with some time to spare since that's the time when you can begin making your first reservations! All you need to do is log into your app and tap My Genie Day. Then, scroll down and look for the purple bar and tap "Get Disney Genie+ for Today."
I'd also recommend taking some time to explore the My Disney Experience app before you arrive. A little like your own magic wand, you'll be able to unlock everything that Walt Disney World Resort has to offer! You can check wait times for attractions, view park maps, and you'll even be able to
mobile order food. This is a great way to minimize waits and maximize the fun! Also, be sure that you've made your Theme Park Reservations with the
Disney Park Pass system, which is an important step in reserving the parks you wish to visit on each day of your trip.
I hope I was able to answer your question today, Kristin! If anything else pops up, please visit us again.
You've never had a friend like me!
