Hello, Loretta. Welcome to planDisney!
There is no better way to ring in the new year than visiting The Most Magical Place On Earth! Hopefully, you can leave the cold New England weather behind to enjoy some time in the warm Florida sun and lounge by your
Disney Resorts Collection hotel pool!
As you may or may not know, the
MagicBand+ allows you to unlock your Disney Resorts Collection hotel room, enter the Theme Parks, connect to Disney PhotoPass, and redeem your Virtual Queue, Lightning Lane, and Individual Lightning Lane selections. Unfortunately, once a MagicBand+ has been linked to a Guest,
it cannot be transferred to another Guest, so your son just added another band to his repertoire.
If you would like to purchase a new MagicBand+, you can do so through your MyDisney account, the
My Disney Experience app, the
Disney Store, or one of the many Disney merchandise locations throughout the Walt Disney World Resort. My favorite spot is inside
EPCOT at Pin Traders—Camera Center, but
Disney Springs and many merchandise locations throughout Disney World will also be great options.
If you're not interested in purchasing another MagicBand+, no worries.
Disney MagicMobile is a My Disney Experience app feature that can do many of the same things MagicBand+ does. To activate MagicMobile, you will open your app, select the menu icon (three horizontal lines), and scroll down to “Set up MagicMobile Entry.” Follow the prompts to choose your pass style and add it to your mobile phone's digital wallet.
I hope this answers your question, Loretta. If you have any questions or want more assistance planning your upcoming
Walt Disney World Resort vacation, drop me a line!
See you real soon!
Brent
