Greetings, Latasha!
Welcome to planDisney! I am so very glad that you stopped by with your questions. It looks as if your visit to The Most Magical Place on Earth is coming up in just a few short weeks. I hope that you and your travel party are getting excited about all the adventures coming your way during your stay. This summer is a great time to visit.
Traditional Character Greetings have recently returned and the all-new attraction
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind opens just a few days before you arrive. I hope you are ready for the best trip ever!
I am delighted to hear that you are starting your planning with
Disney Genie! This great new tool located in the
My Disney Experience app is the perfect way to plan and customize your upcoming park days. Before you arrive you can start adding preferences for your Genie day by tapping the three bars at the bottom of the app screen. Select the
My Genie Day tile to start adding some fun to your itinerary. Click
Get Started Now and follow the remaining prompts to add your park preference and Family & Friend to each of your theme park days. You will need
Disney Park Pass reservations and purchased theme park tickets to begin making your plans. Once you have selected your park location and Guests to plan with, you can add favorite attractions, dining reservations or location preferences, and so much more. Add your favorite interests from
Star Wars to pirates, and before you know it you'll have a great head start on the perfect itinerary. When the date of your theme park visit arrives, Genie will automatically take all your preferences into consideration and create a magical itinerary for you that day. You can modify your choices as you go and Genie will update plans in real-time.
You can also add the Genie+ service to your day as an additional purchase. This will give you
Lightning Lane access, meaning you will spend less time in lines, and more time enjoying your favorite attractions. You can book your first Lightning Lane selection at 7 AM ET on each of your park days that have the service added to your ticket. The service also includes special PhotoPass lenses that are outrageously fun and behind the scenes audio tales full of fascinating facts.
I hope that your upcoming adventure is memorable and magical!
We'll see ya real soon!
