    How do you connect your disneyband+ for embarkation day?

    Hi there, Sage! Welcome back to planDisney. I'm thrilled you dropped by with another question. I'd be happy to help.

    It's just about time to set sail! While that is excellent news in and of itself, I have more great news for you. There's nothing you need to do to connect your DisneyBand+ prior to embarkation day. I recommend that you have your DisneyBand+ fully charged and plan to wear it as you check in at the port. During the check-in process, you will be asked if you would like to use DisneyBand+ for your sailing, and then the helper checking you in at the cruise port will quickly link your band to your sailing profile. It's so quick and simple. 

    From that point on, you'll be able to use your DisneyBand+ to open your stateroom door, charge purchases to your onboard account, and as a way to identify yourself when embarking or disembarking the ship (just remember your photo ID as well!). It's so convenient! If you are sailing aboard the Disney Destiny or Disney Treasure, your DisneyBand+ will be the key to playing the Haunted Mansion Happy Hunt, a thrilling interactive game that is a must-play in my opinion. 

    I hope you are feeling prepared to say "goodbye" to work and "hello" to vacation! There's nothing like letting Disney whisk you away to far-off places while providing world-class service and entertainment.

    Have a magical time!
