Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Mike. I'm so happy you stopped by and even happier to hear you're planning a
summertime visit to the Walt Disney World Resort! My family loves to visit during the summer-months because it gives us a chance to enjoy the immersive Disney Resort hotel pools and the you-may-get-wet attractions. So fun!
I think you're asking about how to access
My Disney Experience. With this handy vacation tool, you can add Guests to your Family & Friends list, make and manage plans like
dining reservations, add vacation add-ons like
Memory Maker, and order
MagicBand and MagicBand+ for every member of your travel party!
Have you already created a My Disney Experience account? If you haven't, that will be your first step. Simply visit the
Walt Disney World Resort website and click on the 'Sign In or Create Account' link at the very top of the page. Enter your email and then follow the prompts to create an account. Once your account is created and you're logged in, you can add your Disney Resort hotel reservation to your plans. Hover over the My Disney Experience tab on the Walt Disney World Resort homepage and select 'My Plans' from the drop-down menu that appears. Scroll down the page just a bit until you see the Resort Hotel icon. Click on the icon and then click on 'Link a Reservation' to add your reservation information, including your confirmation number and the last name listed on the reservation.
With your account created and your Disney Resort hotel reservation linked to your account, you can begin to use My Disney Experience to plan your stay! To add Guests to your Family & Friends list, hover over that My Disney Experience tab on the Walt Disney World Resort website again, and select 'My Family & Friends' from the drop-down menu. You'll see your Family & Friends List, including the people listed on your Disney Resort hotel reservation, as well as the option to add Guests. Just click on the 'Add a Guest' link and follow the prompts to send invitations to connect. To order MagicBand and MagicBand+, visit your My Disney Experience planning page, and you'll see an option to begin your order.
Be sure to download the
My Disney Experience mobile app while you're counting down the days to your Disney vacation. It's magic at your fingertips! You can use the My Disney Experience mobile app to add Guests to your Family & Friends list and order MagicBands.
