What is Disney Genie?
Written By Dannielle Puckett, Travel Advisor | Disney Specialist
It’s a new technology, which Disney says will, “Guide Guests through the theme parks with tips that can help them reduce time in lines, discover magic around every corner and take the guesswork out of “what’s next.”
It doesn’t replace the My Disney Experience or Disneyland apps. It’s actually built right into the pre-existing app. Disney Genie service will help you maximize your park time so you can have more fun. It includes a personalized itinerary feature that will quickly and seamlessly map out an entire day. “From specific attractions, foodie experiences and entertainment, to general interests like Disney princesses, villains, Pixar, Star Wars, thrill rides and more – Guests just tell Disney Genie what they want to do and it will do the planning for them,” according to Disney.
Here are a few more features:
- Get Itinerary Updates from Morning to Night: Disney Genie will continue to update the Guest’s itinerary throughout your day, so they can be more spontaneous and go with the flow.
- Find Favorites at a Glance: Guests can create their very own personal tip board to instantly see their favorites. It will display current AND forecasted future wait times, helping Guests predict when they might experience quicker entry to attractions.
- Enjoy More Flexibility and Fun: Disney Genie brings existing planning features together in one place. Guests can join a virtual queue at certain attractions, make dining and experience reservations, mobile order food at many locations, get help from a virtual assistant and more.
With the Disney Genie announcement, a new queue has also been introduced called the Lightning Lane entrance. This paid option will replace the free Fastpass option Walt Disney World has had in the past. Read more about that HERE.
