photolense will give you fancy features when taking pictures when your genie+ is active on the day you visit.

So this works out cheaper over 9 days of use or more? Based on current exchange rates and pricing of course?

Will speak to ATD i dont want to lose the dining credit and or $250 voucher.

Yes, so if you think you can make use of G+ for at least 9 days, then it's better to add it in advance. We were only planning on using it for a max of 4 days if needed (2 MK and 2HS as it doesn't really seem like it's needed for AK and EP from the vlogs I've been watching). We're going iin September, so hoping for low crowds and standby times, so we're going to wait and make the call when we're there.

It can be added with Disney direct bookings, but TAs are saying they can't at the moment. Hopefully they'll be able to sort something out with Disney to enable it soon for those what want to add it in advance.

• To add Genie+ to current Ultimate tickets, you need to ring your TA or Disney and they will do over the phone. It will be added for full length of days of ticket. What they are actually doing is a new booking, changing your ticket to the new Magic ticket.
• If you currently have an Ultimate ticket with dining plan, and you phone to add Genie + to your ticket, you will loose the dining plan, as the dining plan is only valid with the old ultimate tickets, not the new Magic tickets.
• Genie + can be added at in person at the Kiosks at the park. As far as I know, at the kiosks it can be added for full length of ticket at the kiosks.
• When adding Genie+ you can select which tickets or person to add it to when you have multiple people/ tickets linked in MDE. You do not have to add it for everyone in the party.

You might want to either delete this post or update it as the information is incorrect. Plus you mention Dining Plan which could be confusing for some

We are roughly there at the same time. I think i will wait like you to see how it pans out. I didnt factor in a few water park days to.

Yes, you're not long after us! I'd also like to hear some feedback from Dibbers actually using it when they go - lots going before us! It will be interesting to see what actual experiences are at busy times, quieter times etc.

We're also planning 4 waterpark days and 1 day offsite at KSC, so that takes us to the breakeven point anyway.
