Hiya, Janet! Welcome to planDisney! I'm so glad you've stopped by with such a great planning question.
The only thing more fun than a
Walt Disney World vacation is a Walt Disney World vacation with a big group of family. I'm so excited for you! I'm thrilled to see that your Disney Resort hotel rooms are booked, and your planning is off to a practically perfect start. As someone who loves how adorable and convenient the
MagicBand+ devices are and orders a new one (or two!) before every Disney vacation, I'm happy to help your son and your whole family order this oh-so-magical accessory.
I think you will be happy to hear that every guest staying at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel is eligible to pre-order a MagicBand+ on their
My Disney Experience account before their arrival. I suspect that when you click on "
My MagicBands and Cards," on your account, you are given the option to pre-order and purchase a MagicBand+ for you and your husband since you are the only two on your room reservation.
I recommend having your son log into his
My Disney Experience account on the Walt Disney World website and click "My MagicBands and Cards" to see if he is given to option to order a MagicBand+ for himself and his family members. If you still don't see the option to order a MagicBand+ for your son here, I recommend
calling a helpful Cast Member with My Disney Experience, MagicBand and MagicBand+. They will surely be able to work their magic for you!
Janet, you and your family could not be visiting at a better time of year! With the weather warm enough to enjoy a midday pool break at your Resort and the
EPCOT International Flower and Garden Festival in full bloom, there will be so much to do, see and taste during your visit. You'll be so happy to have that MagicBand+ for easy, hands-free purchases at the festival and around Walt Disney World. Happy tapping!
I hope this was helpful, Janet, and I hope that you and your family have the most magical and memorable vacation at the Most Magical Place on Earth together. Please feel free to stop by any time with any questions you have. You've got a friend in planDisney!
Blue skies and sunshine,
Mandy
