Hello, Kristy!
Your wish is Genie’s command! And since you have purchased your
theme park tickets with the
Disney Genie+ service already included, you are just about all set. The only required step to activate your pre-purchased Genie+ entitlement is for each Guest to use their theme park ticket to enter a theme park each day.
Tony’s Tip: I highly recommend arriving as early in the day as possible. It is common for the Cast Members to allow Guests to enter the theme parks before the time of the official park opening. During that time, Guests who are waiting for access to attractions to begin may book their first Genie+ return time! Even before the parks open, you will be “One Jump Ahead,” just like Aladdin.
To use Genie+, open the
Disneyland mobile app to the “Tip Board” screen. Find participating attractions with the “LL Disney Genie+” label. The next available time to book for that attraction will be displayed. If that time works for your party, tap the “Book Experience” link to proceed with reserving that return time. Some attractions with
Lightning Lane entrances are not included with Genie+. These attractions are labeled with “LL Individual Lightning Lane.” They will also show the next available time to book along with a listed per-Guest price to book that particular attraction's listed return time.
Also included with all theme park tickets is the
Disney Genie service. Genie provides a suggested itinerary for your day and can be tailored to your preferences. You can tell Genie your wishes ahead of time by visiting the “My Genie Day” screen in the Disneyland app. For the current day, the “Get Started Now” button will let you customize your preferences for the day. For future dates, tap the “Change Day” link and select a date on the calendar. A “Get Started” button will allow you to make your wishes known. Or, if you have already input your preferences, an “Edit My Selections” link will be available to make changes. Every day at 7:00 AM, Genie populates a suggested itinerary, customized to your preferences. And if you happen to change your mind throughout the day, you can fine-tune the suggested itinerary by updating your preferences or removing specific items from the list.
I hope you have a magical time at the Disneyland Resort, Kristy. With Genie and Genie+ as your guides, I think that will be the case!
