Hey Howdy Hey Elaine!
I would first like to welcome you to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, we are so happy to have you here today!
I just logged into my own, My Disney Experience account, and I actually have 10
Family & Friends connected to me now. I was also able to add more people to that list! My fellow panelist,
Anne Marie, has also confirmed that you are able to enter 10
MagicBand ID numbers
at a time. Once the first 10 numbers have been added, you may go in and add additional bands so that all 13 can be listed under your account.
Elaine, how you set up your
My Disney Experience account and your Family & Friends list is completely up to you! However, if all 13 people in your travel party are not members in the same household, you might want to consider creating separate accounts. For example, I manage my husband and two Mouseketeers, while my dad manages my mom and younger sisters. When we travel to
Walt Disney World Resort together, we make sure we are connected through My Disney Experience, so that we can plan together. Planning together helps, when we travel as a large party, together we are 10 people.
This separation of accounts and ability to connect or not helps when we travel separately, as smaller parties. The best part about merging our two accounts is timing! Sometimes I am the lucky one when it comes to scheduling reservations for the party and sometimes my dad is. Together we fit perfectly just like Woody & Buzz!
I hope this helps you when it comes to managing your account and plans. If you have any trouble linking your MagicBands, you can always check in with
Star Command!
To Infinity & Beyond!
