My Disney Experience App

My family is 21 days and counting away from our next Disney adventure. The whole family is excited! We have another family joining us, making us a party of 9. A friend who is going to Disney over Spring break, brought up some questions over lunch last weekend. "How will I know what to do in the park?" I suggested that she downloaded the new My Disney Experience Application to her Iphone. This app is free and can be downloaded at any of the app stores. I explained to her this is the easiest mobile way to keep things on track and what is happening in the park. She is a mother of twin boys age 6 and a little princess age 2. She also has another family going with her, another family of 5. They have children ranging from 18 years of age down to age 3. This was my reccommendation to her: After downloading the application, login with your Disneyworld account information. (This is the information that you log into on the Walt Disney World site to price vacations and glance around the park information. After logging into the "My Disney Experience" slide over one screen to the right and use the Full Time Guide for the park of your choice. This allows you to know where all the meet and greets are being held and what time they will be arriving. We all have been victim of walking around the park and next thing you see it that one special character. You look around and there is already a line a mile long, leaves you wondering if it is worth it to stand there with the children. Fret no more! This mobile app tells you where the specific character is going to be and when they are arriving at that location. What a wonderful feature so you get, yet another special moment with your prince, princess or pirate. My additional advice to utilizing this feature, is request or print out a map of the parks online. Get familiar with it prior to your arrival. This will minimize confusion and allow you to have an idea of all the locations in the park for rides and meet and greets. Although you may have character dinners planned, the park offers so many more wonderful encounters. Where else can you walk among Davey Jones or rub elbows with Smee. Go ride the Magic Carpet ride and immediately visit with Aladdin and Princess Jasmine, in their "Whole New World". The list of additional characters goes on and on. Go expore your Whole New World!
