Hi there, Elisabeth!
Wow! You must be so excited to have a big
family vacation coming up! I can't think of a better way to spend time
with family than by immersing yourselves in the Magic of a Walt Disney
World vacation!
One of the things I absolutely LOVE about using
Disney's PhotoPass+ on a multi-family vacation is that you can add
multiple PhotoPass cards as you need to. You will only receive one of
the PhotoPass+ cards, so you'll want to make sure that you are all
together for all or most of the Attractions and Restaurant photos that
you have taken. If your families split up, each group can get their own
card and you'll be able to
add the PhotoPass card numbers online
very easily so they can be put on your CD when you've returned home
from vacation and are getting ready to get that CD ordered.
Once you've connected the number from the back of your PhotoPass+ card, you should be able to use your
MagicBands.
This process is still in its testing phases; however, and because of
that, I recommend that you carry the cards with you just in case. I also
highly recommend that you take a picture on your cell phone of the
numbers on the back of each PhotoPass card you obtain because, should
you misplace one, you don't want to take the chance of losing the
pictures on it!
I hope this helps, Elisabeth!
Please write back in if we can help with any other planning questions!
Wishing you a Pixie Dusted vacation!
