    How do I update friend and family on my account?

    Welcome Home, Cynthia! It's a great day to talk about Disney Vacation Club adventures--at planDisney, it's kind of our favorite thing. Thanks so much for stopping by with this excellent question!

    Any DVC vacation is better with friends and family, don't you think? The aspect of our Membership that I have appreciated the most is the ability to share some Disney magic with our nearest and dearest. I just used Vacation Points for one of my planDisney besties to stay at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa for our reunion this fall, and I'm so happy that we'll all be able to stay near each other so we don't miss a moment!

    It's easy to update the Friends and Family list on your MyDisney account via the app--let's walk through the steps! From the home screen, click the three lines at lower right, then scroll down to "Account" and select "Profile". There will be two tabs visible, one of which says "Family & Friends List". Click that header, and you will see a list of anyone currently connected with you. You can remove any existing individuals by clicking on their name and selecting "Remove from My List", or or change the settings for what plans they are able to see (all plans, or just plans you share).

    If you scroll to the bottom of the list of current friends and family, there is an option to "Add a Guest". Choose this option and you can add additional pals by entering their name and age, or scanning their individual linking code. This linking code can be found if the person you want to add navigates to the "Profile" section (where we found the tab for the Family & Friends List) and chooses "My Profile". They can scroll down and there is an option to "Show My Linking Code". A unique QR code will come up on the screen and you can scan that from your phone. Like magic, you'll be connected and ready to share all of your plans!

    Cynthia, I hope you are looking forward to your upcoming vacation--you're almost down to single digits! Wishing you safe travels and the best times with your people. Thank you again for visiting planDisney, and please reach out anytime if we can help with additional questions. 

    Stay Magical!
