The Magic of the Disneyland Resort app

Last summer when I went to Disneyland with my family, I learned what a difference ordering food through the Disneyland Resort app can make. Disneyland is a place with fun roller coasters, unique experiences, and yummy food, and because of that most of what the park offers requires a long wait.

Over the past few years my family has visited Disneyland many times and like previous times, there were long lines during our June trip. My mom helped us avoid the ones for food by pre-ordering on the app. Sometimes she ordered at the beginning of the day, in other instances she ordered an hour before we were ready to eat. Both methods allowed us to make the most of our time in the park.

Some visitors pay for passes to go through lines for rides quicker, which can cost up to $30 per person per day. The Disneyland Resort app is free and ordering food through the app is no extra cost. 

Ordering on the app helped the five of us quite a bit. At times my younger sister with autism suddenly felt overwhelmed and needed something to eat while we waited in line to go on a ride. My mom used the app to pre-order a treat she knew my sister loved, and by the time we finished the ride we could pick it up.
