Hi Mari!
Welcome to planDisney.
If you have misplaced your
MagicBand from a previous visit and you wish to replace it you can choose to purchase a new one from a wide selection. If you would prefer not to have a MagicBand+ there are some designs of MagicBand 2 available, but you do have to search a little for these. Did you know that guests from the United States staying at a Disney Resort hotel can pre-order their MagicBands from a wide selection on
My Disney Experience, and have them delivered to their home address? There is usually a small choice of MagicBand 2 available to order.
If you want to wait until you arrive, you'll find a good selection for purchase at the theme parks - the Emporium on Main Street USA at Magic Kingdom Park, Creations Shop at EPCOT for example, and at Disney Springs - World of Disney or D-Tech on Demand at Marketplace Co-Op. Disney Resort hotel gift shops also stock a small supply.
If you decide you don't want to purchase another MagicBand, it's entirely optional! Stop by the Front Desk of your hotel - at check-in or anytime - and request a Key to the World admission card. These are free of charge and perform in the same way as a MagicBand, allowing room charging, park admission, and unlocking our hotel room door.
Please come back and visit us if you have any further questions, and you can
send me a direct question if you wish. We will be happy to help you plan your magical vacation.
Sue
