    Have you utilized Genie+ at Epcot?!

    • @omega5418
      @omega5418 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes! It debuted Oct. 19 and we used it October 23rd 🫠 at Epcot! We were the Guinea Pigs for sure but I loved it!! I’m excited to go back for Christmas and try to utilize stacking.

      Great tips Bekah! We’ll be using it in Epcot in February! Loving this series!

    I appreciate that you have the realistic expectations of how many rides you'll do with a Toddler. I don't have kids but it's still a good strategy even with adults who don't need a fast paced day

    • @BekahHart
      @BekahHart  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      YES 🙌🏼 I’m allll about realistic expectations 👌🏼😆 And that’s so true, this strategy could really apply for anyone with or without kids.

    Great point with not needing rider swap with Genie+ . Definitely will be buying it with the littles

      It’s so true! And what one toddler loves, another toddler may be terrified by. So you really have to strategize based on what your little one is going to enjoy 🥰

  • @kaylaandmarkalan

    Yes!!! It’s not about how many rides. It’s not a ride maximizer, it’s a TIME maximizer. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    I’m so excited for this series!! Leaving next Sunday with two toddlers and we booked genie with our tickets before the rule changed, so we are definitely locked in and excited to utilize it. Our girls also need to nap in the room so loving the tips for the afternoon lightening lanes!

    We used genie + at Epcot in June. We bought an ILL for guardians. And got lightning lanes for ratatouille, frozen, soarin and test track. The other rides were walk on. It made our day more relaxed.

      @BekahHart  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hypothetically yes, but I have heard it can cause the app to glitch. So use caution if you attempt this method 🤪😅 I’ve never had Andy on the app at the same time as me though, so I don’t know 100% how it would go 🙈

    Hi I'm loving your videos and tips! I've been to Disney a million times bc I've got an AP but now I'm taking my 18 month old for the first time next weekend and you've eased some of my anxiety! I did want to ask...in your opinion do you think a meet and greet with Anna and Elsa would be more likely to happen at Epcot vs MK? I think I did years ago at Epcot...I'm really wanting one for my baby! Anyways thanks again for all the great info 😍

    • @BekahHart
      @BekahHart  2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think you'd still want to set up rider swap with genie+ if you also have an older child that would like to ride twice (with each parent). The swapping parent is allowed to take someone to ride with them.
