Hey there, Megan, and welcome to planDisney! Thanks for stopping by the panel with your question! Embarking on a Walt Disney World Vacation with another family is sure to deliver twice the fun! It can also require a little more coordination to ensure that everyone across both vacation parties has a fantastic experience. The great news is that Walt Disney World thinks of it all! The
My Family & Friends list provides an easy way to coordinate plans across large groups and multiple vacation parties.
Once Guests are linked in the
My Disney Experience Family & Friends list,
Lightning Lane reservations,
dining reservations,
mobile food orders, and so much more can be coordinated seamlessly across the entire group. However, linking parties in the Family & Friends list does not automatically link Disney Genie+ Service purchases. Being linked in the Family & Friends list simply provides you the option. When you go to book a Genie+ Lightning Lane reservation, you will be given to option to select the members of your party. All you have to do is make sure that only the people whom you’d like to book a reservation for are selected. The other family will be free to choose their own selections as well. And if you all come back together and decide you’d like to experience an attraction as a whole group, you still have the option to book Genie+ Lightning Lane reservations for the entire crew!
I hope this helps, Megan! If you have more questions while planning your Disney Vacation,
stop back by and let me know!
You’ve got a friend in me,
PG
