Hi Gianna,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! Your Walt Disney World Resort vacation is just around the river bend! You must be so excited. I think we are all ready to be
Returning to a World of Magic. And I love that you're traveling with a large group, including three under two years old! How wonderful it will be to see the Most Magical Place on Earth through their eyes.
My vacation truly feels like it has begun once we board
Disney's Magical Express plus I love the convenience of having my luggage delivered to my Resort Hotel room. Your
Magic Band isn't really a "ticket" to board Disney's Magical Express although I understand why it may feel that way. Disney's Magical Express is a complimentary service provided for guests of
Walt Disney World Resort Hotels. The Magic Band helps Cast Members identify Resort Guests.
When you check-in for Disney's Magical Express, you will need one person from each Resort Hotel Reservation to scan their Magic Band. For example, if your party is spread out across five rooms, one person from each of those five rooms will need to scan their Magic Band. The Cast Member will then be able to see how many people are supposed to board the motorcoach. The Cast Member will count to make sure the number of people boarding the motorcoach matches with the number of people on the reservation. Before you know it you will be on your way to the magic!
Gianna, thank you for visiting us with your question. I hope you'll let us know if you have any further questions. We're always here to help!
Wishing you a magical vacation,
Amy H.
