    My cruise is booked and paid for, how do i buy a dcl disney band

    Hiya, Dan!

    The introduction of DisneyBand+ on the Disney Cruise Line was a game changer for me and my family. I love the hands-free convenience of unlocking our stateroom door. And I enjoy the comfort of leaving my wallet stored in our stateroom since I can use my DisneyBand+ to make purchases in the shops and at the lounges onboard. The interactive features during fireworks at sea and other onboard experiences enhance our Disney cruises even more.

    To purchase your own DisneyBand+ in advance, you can visit the My Reservations page and tap the Purchase a DisneyBand+ button located within the "Cruise Details" section of your upcoming cruise reservation. Advanced purchase of DisneyBand+ is available to US residents with an active Disney cruise reservation, paid in full or not, when the cruise start date is at least 11 days in the future. If it is already within 10 days or fewer before your cruise, "Hakuna matata!" It means, "No worries!" That's because there will likely be a limited selection of DisneyBand+ to choose from in shops onboard the ship during your cruise. Or if you already have a MagicBand+ purchased at the Disneyland Resort, Walt Disney World Resort, or from the Disney Store, you may also choose to link your band to your cruise account. Cast Members at the cruise ship terminal or the Guest Services Desk onboard can help with questions regarding linking and managing a DisneyBand+ or MagicBand+.

    Last night, my family was looking through DisneyBand+ options for our upcoming cruise on the Disney Dream. We are excited to see several options that were new to us, including a Haunted Mansion-themed band with a Haunted Mansion wallpaper design. That will be perfect for when we play The Haunted Mansion: Happy Hunt game on our Disney Destiny cruise next year.

    Enjoy your DisneyBand+ and your cruise, Dan. Please visit us again here at planDisney if there is anything else we can help answer as you continue preparing for your Disney Cruise Line vacation.
