You'll always get this response, WDTC is an agent (although owned by Disney) just like any other TA so they can't modify a booking made through someone else.

You should be able to add it through your TA, although some of them are saying it's not an option.

I just added the Genie+ Deal to my WDTC reservation today too. No brainer for £97.

I also cancelled my flights and booked an upgrade to PE separately in the BA sale, only £500 extra compared to the £1,000+ Disney wanted to charge me. Also saved the Disney admin fee as I had originally booked all this in July and BA had since cancelled those original flights!

emailed and upgraded our magic's to include Genie+ too, £95pp extra with Floridatix (£536.75 per adult)

Edit: just looked and that was yesterday with the 5% discount - which now looks like it's ended

Anyone luckily enough to visit yet and know how this shows up?

That's funny because I've seen lots of people say it's great and that it meant they were able to ride all of the rides they wanted to.

I think people who haven't watched videos on how to get the most out of it might think it isn't worth it because they might not feel like they got their monies worth.

It really depends on your approach to the parks. If you don’t mind rope dropping, then you will be able to do a lot of what Genie+ offers already. If like me you want to take things easy, Genie+ allows me to book rides when I want (with a few exceptions).

A lot is said about Genie+ not being worth it for Epcot and AK due to the lack of rides there, and I agree at $15 per day, that argument is strong, but not if you get the £97 deal.

The break even on the deal is 9 days though. By the time you take off your AK and Ep days, any off site days, etc, a lot of people aren't going to spend 9 days in just MK and HS. So it does then become a question of value.

Well if you’re talking about getting the best bang for your buck, you’d go to Disney for 14 days to maximise your ticket spend… You could argue that having Genie+ let’s you enjoy the parks even more as you won’t be in long queues, including the ~75 minute queues for Test Track or Na’vi River Journey.
