You have seriously helped plan my family’s trip in March 2024, all year long. I appreciate all you do! The content you and your family post is just so valuable for planning and navigating a trip to Disneyland.

I used to go often as a child but have not been back in 15 years. It’s all different now! It was so overwhelming trying to understand and figure it all out! Until I found your channel! Thank you!!!

I cannot wait for our trip this November 2024 last year I felt so lost but now that me and my boys watch your videos everything is so clearly explained! We love your videos! My kids are always excited when you post new ones❤

God, I miss the days when you just scanned your ticket at the Fast Pass machine at each ride.
Disney has made everything so complex and expensive.

My son and I recently returned home to Texas after our Disneyland trip. We usually visit WDW during December and have never bought Genie Plus because of the cost. But on this trip, we broke down and purchased it and are so glad we did. We got so much more accomplished!

Just had the best 2 days at Disneyland. My husband said to me that getting the lighting lane was the best money well spent! I just said to him that SoCal Disney Dad told me all about it. 😂 Thanks for helping me plan for the trip!! I’m so glad that I found your channel. I can’t wait to watch the Disney World videos!!

Thanks for this. We arrived with two days to expose our family to Disney without an experience in 20 plus years and this shortened the learning curve. Thank you!!!!

[Mzgigglez]

Thank you! I've become a huge fan of your videos! They've helped me so much for my upcoming trip in February ❤

[philbaxter]

A great and informative vlog. Genie can be confusing and everyone has different strategies on how to use it. Thank you for sharing your experience using it.

I hate how we kinda have to be plastered on our phones to make the most of our experiences in the park. but this video was extremely helpful with the walkthrough process, including information how to scan in with your phone

[karennovak]

Wow! This is incredibly helpful to actually see a walk through of the process. I haven’t been to Disneyland since they had the old fast pass system of the boxes by the rides…so it’s been awhile. Your explanation and thorough walk thru is just 👍🏻 thanks for answering all the “seemingly obvious” questions for people like me who haven’t been there in quite some time!

[mysteryninja]

Thank you for making this video! Many people do not understand how to use Genie plus properly. I was just there last week, and so many people we're wasting their LL at 8 am for 15-minute standby lines. Like Amy said, wait in line when is low and use the LL to do it again!

[Michimarie]

Thank you so much for making this content! I am planning my first ever trip to Disneyland later this year and your videos are making it so much easier to plan!!

[mzfyt]

It was very helpful to see what you were doing in real time. We are coming for spring break so it will be interesting to see how our experience as first timers go during a super busy time. Hoping for the best! 😂

[Nanaeguitar]

Great informative video! I wish you had done this video a week ago! I just got back from Disneyland and although I figured out how to use Genie+, it would have been so helpful to see this before hand. The last time I used Genie+ was 2 years ago in WDW so there was a slight learning curve.

Having seen one of your previous vids on "fiddle-faddling" (modifying the Genie+ booking and then continually swiping down to refresh to get new available times, like he was trying at 14:30 in this video), I did this ALL.THE.TIME to really great success in getting better times for most-popular rides in both parks. I don't think I ever hit the 2-hour rule in 5 days at Christmas.

[mlou]

I consider myself a Disneyland expert and when friends ask about Genie+ I send them the link to this video. I love the step by step instructions and showing your screen.

I would do exactly what you did but keep modifying my first LL and keep pushing it back until a time after 10am. Everything is a super short wait for the first 2 hours.

[eveTmtz]

Your videos have helped out so much! It's our first time going to Disneyland and we've watched your videos from the moment before we booked the trip up until today when we're a week out. I feel ready to navigate Disneyland because of you. Thank you for making these videos!

[cindymirsoian]

Just here to say these videos are awesome! Thank you for all that you do! Another cool thing I learned (for anyone in the comments) is that you can link your group to one account. So just one person needs to make the LL reservation for the group.

[jamescaldwell]

Love your videos. We are regular Disney World goers who visited Disneyland for the first time in October. Felt very well prepared by your videos. We have similar aged kids and really love the family friendly content you put out. My oldest son is 8 and told me he kept looking out for that Trevor guy because he knew Daddy would love to meet him at the park. Keep up the great Content I hope to make it out for D23 this year.
