Welcome to planDisney, Cynthia!
Your first step is going to be to create a
MyDisneyExperience account, and add all of the people who you will be traveling with under the “family and friends” tab.
Once all of the guests are added, you will link your tickets and assign them to the proper people. When purchasing your tickets, you should have received a confirmation number for the tickets, this is what you will enter.
To make your theme park reservations from the main MyDisneyExperience screen, scroll down a bit and then hover over the blue circle labeled “park reservations.” This will reveal the blue button labeled “
make a park reservation”, which you want to click. Then, the create party screen will come up. Here, you will select the first 4 people, then the date, and the theme park you want to create the reservation for. If all 8 people are planning to go to Magic Kingdom together, you can select all 8 at the beginning.
You can easily make separate reservations for each party of 4, so that they can enjoy the parks of their choosing on your October vacation.
Don't forget to add
Memory Maker so that you can capture all of the great times you have together (and apart) on your trip! Memory Maker includes all 13 attraction photos, plus professional photos taken within all 4 theme parks! Be sure to ask for "magic shots", since you will be at Walt Disney World just a couple days after Magic Kingdom's 50th Anniversary! I bet there will be some AWESOME magic shots!
Good luck making your park pass reservations!
Happy Planning,
Tracy
