Hey, howdy, hey, Eyal! Thanks for bringing this great question to planDisney. You came to the right place as we love sharing lessons learned and advice with Guests through our own experiences.
My suggestion is to create your own
Disneyland account, as you can both link all the tickets for your party and manage
Disney Genie+ Lightning Lane selections. Let me outline the steps to make it easier for you.
1. Using a valid email address, create a Disneyland account for yourself.
2. Download the
Disneyland mobile app on your phone. Log in to your account.
3. Go to Tickets and Passes. Click the “+” in the top right corner and click Link Tickets & Passes.
4. Ask your wife to open her app, go to Tickets and Passes, where you can see the ticket
barcodes. Now from your app, after you have clicked Link Tickets & Passes, you should be able to scan the barcode of each ticket you’d like to link.
Now both of you should see all the tickets for your party in the app.
Either of you will be able to purchase
Disney Genie+ for your entire party from the app once you have entered the theme park. As soon as you are through the turnstile, go to My Genie Day and you should see a link to add Genie+ to your day. I think you’re going to find Genie+ very useful in getting more attractions in during your visit! My daughters and I were there two weeks ago and were able to continue making
Lightning Lane selections throughout the day. Keep in mind you can only use one Lightning Lane per attraction per day. Also, after you have made one Lightning Lane selection, you can make your next one after that first one has been redeemed, or 120 minutes after booking it, whichever comes first. (I like to set an alarm on my phone to remind me to make my next selection!)
Enjoy the magic carpet ride!
