How do I hide my Disney plans?

To change the setting for someone to only view the plans you have in common, go to your Family & Friends list, select the ?Settings? button next to that person's name and switch off the toggle next to ?Allow to view all of your plans.?



To hide your Disney plans from your traveling companions (especially for a surprise reveal), you must manage your digital footprint within the "My Disney Experience" or "Disneyland" app. First, ensure you are the only one with the login credentials to the primary account. If you are using "Family & Friends" lists to coordinate, you can keep certain plans "private" or simply wait until the very last moment to link other guests' accounts to your reservations. Another "pro-tip" is to turn off push notifications on your phone, as a pop-up saying "Your dining reservation at Be Our Guest is confirmed!" can quickly ruin the surprise. For physical evidence, have all vacation materials (like MagicBands or luggage tags) shipped to a friend's house or a workplace rather than your home address. In 2026, Disney’s "MagicBand+" technology is highly integrated, so avoid charging the bands in plain sight or testing the lights before the big reveal. If you are planning a "reveal" video, keep your research tabs in an "Incognito" browser window to prevent Disney-themed retargeting ads from appearing on shared computers or smart TVs in the household.

While account sharing is not allowed by Disney, that doesn't mean you aren't allowed to set up separate profiles inside of your household. Your home can use the same account and share it across separate user profiles. Being able to stream across four devices at once substantially helps.

Most Common Trip Length – 4 or 5 Days: This trip length works well for most people because you can visit all four Disney World theme parks, even possibly enjoy a second day at a favorite park, and it fits within most people's work vacation limits.

MORE DETAILS

It's not entirely necessary. Although MagicBands can make your park experience a touch (or tap) easier and can provide some unique experiences, you can function just fine in the park without one. You can still enter the park by scanning a physical ticket or using your Disney app on a mobile phone, for example.

MORE DETAILS

Up to four different devices can watch Disney Plus at once. Each Disney Plus account can have seven active profiles so that the whole family can have their own profiles.

MORE DETAILS

Spouses/domestic partners may use their Spouse/Domestic Partner Pass to admit Guests into the parks with or without the presence of the Employee or Retiree. Spouses/domestic partners may not admit themselves into an eligible Disney Theme Park after the Employee or Retiree has already entered the park with Guest(s).
