Howdy Cynthia!
Welcome to
planDisney. A MagicBand+ is one of my favorite items to have during our vacations to Walt Disney World. It allows me to quickly scan into my Lightning Lane entrance, charge my meals to my room, and pay for merchandise. It also allows me to experience magical extras around the park, like the way it lights up during the nighttime spectacular fireworks show, Happily Ever After. Let's see what we can find out about your question.
Gosh, I hate to hear that you can not find the charger for your MagicBand+. Because it's specifically built for the MagicBand+, you may not find it readily on popular retail sites. I checked the
Disney Store website, but couldn't find it available there. The good news is that I was at Walt Disney World last month and saw them for sale at many merchandise locations across the parks, resorts, and Disney Springs. Since you have a few weeks before you arrive, I would also try contacting
Guest Services to see if they can offer any additional options.
I would like to share a little-known feature of the MagicBand+. You can customize many of the effects and colors of your band using the My Disney Experience app. You can do this by tapping on the 3 bars (≡) at the bottom right-hand corner. Scroll down to MagicBands & Cards and choose the person associated with the band. Here, you can change the Light Up Theme for when you interact with park attractions. You can also adjust the brightness, vibrations, and other interactive features. It’s a neat way to make your experience even more magical.
Cynthia, I can’t wait for you to experience all the magical fun at the Walt Disney World Resorts and Parks with your new MagicBand+. Please stop by if you have any further questions; my fellow panelists and I will be happy to help.
See ya real soon,
Robert
