Hi David! Welcome to planDisney!
In just two short days, you are arriving at
Walt Disney World Resort during
The World's Most Magical Celebration. Indulge in a specialty-themed treat available in the
50th Anniversary Celebration Sips and Bites Guide. Enjoy that snack while you look for the golden
Disney Fab 50 Character Collection statues throughout all four theme parks.
Walt Disney World Resort has introduced the new
Disney Genie Service to help maximize your day in the theme parks available in your
My Disney Experience Mobile App. The complimentary version will assist in suggesting attractions and dining experiences with shorter wait times. As an add-on to your day is Disney Genie+ for a nominal fee. This upgraded service will give you return time access to
Lightning Lanes on select attractions. And for the most popular attractions, you may choose to purchase up to two per day
Individual Lightning Lane passes.
For individual theme park tickets, I find the easiest way to add the Genie+ option is through your mobile app. Starting at midnight on the day of your park visit, open the complimentary Genie Service and select "My Day" followed by "Get Disney Genie+ for Today." Selections will be available beginning at 7:00 AM. For a more in-depth explanation with further options with ticket packages

I suggest being ready with your mobile app at the precise time you have access to attraction selections as popular choices tend to go fast.
You are arriving on the first day of my favorite, the
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. Grab yourself a fresh delight from one of the many
outdoor kitchens. I am eyeing the Tuna Tataki Bowl from The Citrus Blossom booth near the Port of Entry.
Keeping it Magical,
Cindy
