    ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
    We have spent months mastering the fine art (and navigating the headache-inducing frustrations) of Disney Genie Plus and we have come up with 27 little tidbits of knowledge will help make your next trip to Hollywood Studios, Magic Kingdom, EPCOT and/or Animal Kingdom your best trip ever (although we don't think you'll really even need the Genie for those last two...)
    This is essentially our "Disney Genie Plus for Dummies" video - except it's way more fun than a "for Dummies" book and - most importantly - we don't think you're a dummy. The fact that you are figuring all this stuff out before your Disney World trip makes you pretty darned smart, actually!
    Tips Included: How to get the best ride times and skip the lines at the best rides, how to save money with your Genie strategy, how to work around park-hopping glitches and other Genie gremlins and lots of tips to help you focus on the fun instead of the frustration!

    DJI OM 5
    This is like a steadicam for your phone. It keeps all your shots smooth and level, even while you are walking. Do not use on fast rides like roller coasters. Also note that this can convert to a selfie stick, but selfie sticks are not allowed in Disney Parks. This item is allowed because it is primarily a gimbal but you are not allowed to extend it.

    RODE VIDEO MICRO
    This little microphone is a great, affordable way to cut down on the noise around you so people can hear your voice. Just be sure to point it at the sound you want and unplug it when you want to hear all the sound around you.

    COLD SHOE MOUNT ADAPTER
    If you want to use the DJI Om 5 and the microphone at the same time, you need one of these.

      @@skyeblue5669 Hello! Yes, most rides are accessible and you can also use a system called DAS (Disability Access Services) that allows you to bypass the normal line for many attractions. It works differently than Genie, but you can also choose to use it in addition to Genie. Undercover Tourist has an excellent web page that details all of the accessibility information for each ride and you can find that here: www.undercovertourist.com/blog/disney-world-disability-access-attractions/

    This video helped our family have such a great Disney vacation! The most helpful tip was the “slot machine”. While at Epcot (park hopper) I missed all Genie+ availability for Frozen and Remy. I just populated both as my desired rides and kept spinning the slot machine. Got both with about 10 minutes of effort. Same thing happened at Magic Kingdom. Got Jungle Cruise, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain - all mid day.
    Without watching this video I would have just given up. Thanks again! Genie+ made our Disney World visit very easy, very fulfilling and very low stress.

    Dear Rob, can't thank you enough for helping us having the greatest time at WDW Resort! It was our first time in Orlando. We visited all four theme parks and did absolutely everything we wanted to do thanks to Genie Plus (and how well we used it, thanks to you). We even had time to have luch at Tusker House in AK and Mama Melrose's in HW. We also had time, in HW and Epcot, to go back to our Disney Hotel and have some rest before heading back to do the night shows and some last rides. You are THE BEST!! Greeting from Guadalajara, Mexico 🥰

    I just used this strategy during the middle of July over 3 days as single vacationer. This worked 100% and I ended up riding every ride at every park I wanted to ride.

    Simply FANTASMIC!! Hands-down the best and most fun way to understand and use DG+. Thank you Rob and Eric for putting this together as it made navigating the parks on our recent trip as fun as possible. DG+ slots works and we scored LL when there were 'none' available. There were only a few times that we had to have time-fillers that were unplanned. All the other times we literally were going from ride-to-ride and getting on through LL with minimal wait. We do miss the previous iteration where we could book 90 (or was it 60?) days out before arriving on-property. But who knows if that feature will ever come back. Worst is that we have to use mobile devices instead of un-plugging.

  • @rilenaveen5695

    Thanks for the video and tips. I have two questions.
    1) has Genie + always had unlimited rides per day? Or was it originally 3 rides per day.
    2) do you think it made a difference that you were solo? Or put another way, do you think a family of 3 or 4 would have the same luck?

    • @EarScouts
      @EarScouts  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Thanks for watching! There has never been a limit on Genie Plus Lightning Lane reservations. Before Genie Plus, there was a system called FastPass+ that allowed you to start with 3 reservations, but you could also add rides one at a time with FastPass after you completed your first three. With FastPass, the reservations were tied to the number of people in your party, which definitely did make it harder for larger groups. Luckily for your group, Genie Plus is designed differently. If a reservation is available, it is available to all parties, whether they are one or ten. Hope that helps answer your questions and that you all have a great trip!

    Outstanding on so many levels! Thank you! This is hands-down the best tutorial for Genie+ we've seen; great tips, helpful phone view, and you've explained the entire system and how to work through the challenges...and have fun doing it! After watching this, we're training our 11 yr.-old granddaughter to be our back-up scheduler to use her tenacity to help with the strategies. Love your great people skills and clear love of all things Disney! Two questions please: 1. Are we correct in understanding that, although we do not purchase LL, we still enter that queue if we have snagged a Genie+ attraction? 2. Even if only two members of your party (out of four )snags a Genie+ selection, does that count for your one "allowed selection" at that moment vs. splitting that "allowed selection" for 2 of your party for another attraction. Sorry if that sounds confusing.... Thank you again!

    • @EarScouts
      @EarScouts  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thanks so much for watching and supporting our channel! As for your questions, all attractions that offer the ability to bypass the regular line call them “Lightning Lanes.” The only difference is that a few Lightning Lanes have to be paid for individually and are not part of Genie Plus (currently these are 7 Dwarfs Mjne Train, Rise of the Resistance, Guardians of the Galaxy and Flight of Passage). For all the others, your Genie Plus charge of $15 per person per day covers access to all the Lightning Lanes you can book and no additional payment is required. As for splitting your party: let’s say everyone is able to book a Lightning Lane. If half of your group chooses to book Space Mountain and the other half wants to ride something else, they can book a different ride instead. Keep in mind that in order for everyone to ride the next ride together, they will all have to have used their Lightning Lane or waited two hours, so it is best to try to book different reservations with similar times to get everybody back together on the next ride. Hope that helps!

      @@EarScouts Thank you--very helpful. We did not realize that the LL rides are separate from Genie+. We were thinking you could possibly luck out and snag one of the popular LL attractions as a part of Genie+. Sounds like the only option other than paying for LL is to gut out the wait in the Standby Lanes for those LL offerings. Thanks also for the info and tips for splitting our party's different Genie+ selections--really good to know! Wow....it's studying for an exam to figure out the best way to handle Genie+ and LL to prepare for a DW trip....glad we have skilled tutors like you!

    Thank you for all your videos. I went with my family of 5 to Disney this past weekend and thanks to your tips and videos we were able to do everything in 3 parks without standing in lines for longer than 10 min. I’m so glad I found your videos. Btw playing slots really works. Thanks again.

    This video was a life changer! Just got back from visiting all 4 parks - 4 days in a row Thanksgiving week. It was crowded and no way would we have secured all the rides if we hadn’t seen your video. I never let the “not currently offered” message deter me from refreshing and eventually getting a time slot. Thank you for sharing your insightful tips!! 😊

    What a great video, thanks. I’m visiting Orlando in mid-October… my last time was 20 years ago and it looks like so much has changed since then. But thanks for explaining Genie+ so well. I’m the type of person who would just accept whatever late time the Genie offers me first, but now I know to play the slots and it might change to earlier ones!

    • @EarScouts
      @EarScouts  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello! So glad to hear you found this video helpful. The key is patience. Just like a real slot machine, you won't win every time and it can take some time to hit the jackpots. Unlike a real slot machine, though, you pretty much always will win eventually if you have patience. If you are't having any luck getting the time to budge on a particular ride, try playing for a different one and come back to the stubborn one a bit later in the day. Good luck and thanks for watching!

    This video was a GOD SEND. I had no idea how GeniePlus worked, and your one tip that YOU CAN'T PLAN saved me hours of frustration! We ended up using the 2 hour rule most of the time, because playing the Genie Slots traverses you across the parks a little more than we liked (32,000 steps at Epcot in one day was a little more than I wanted) :-) but your video still really helped. Your tip on everyone signing in to the same account worked great! Also, we learned our teenager actually liked playing the "slots" and he was usually the one who booked our rides.
    All in all, this video helped make our visit a great trip, and helped me avoid frustration because I could not plan. If you like to plan, Genie+ might not be for you, but using these tips, we stood in line for less than 5 rides and only those with less than 30 minute waits. You make excellent videos, and do an amazing job keeping it fun and informative. We were hoping to see you in parks after watching all your videos you felt like an old friend 🙂.
