Hi Dorothy!
Thanks for stopping by planDisney with this great question! I can't think of a better gift than a visit to the
Most Magical Place on Earth.
If you are staying in a
Disney Resorts hotel during your trip, you'll be able to use your MagicBand+ for purchases at many Disney dining and merchandise locations. Most likely the credit card your daughter has on file will be already associated with your MagicBand+, especially if you all are staying in the same resort room. To get your MagicBand+ linked to your credit card, simply stop by the front desk of your resort upon arrival. Make sure to have the card you want to use handy and the Cast Member will be able to make the appropriate changes. I visited recently with my parents and this process took only a few minutes to take care of. They were able to use their MagicBand+ to charge purchases that they wanted to be responsible for during the trip.
Not only will your
MagicBand+ come in handy with purchases, but it will also help you in a variety of other ways. You can use it to unlock your Disney Resorts room door and for entry into the theme parks each day. This will limit having to carry around park tickets or room keys during the day. There are also some fun and interactive experiences to have with them. They will light up and vibrate as you explore areas of the parks, especially during certain nighttime spectaculars. If you find yourself on the Planet of Batuu in
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, there is a fun scavenger hunt to take part in that your MagicBand+ will come to good use for.
Dorothy, I hope you have a magical trip with your family next month!
Stop back and see us anytime at planDisney!
See ya real soon!
