Hi, there!
Welcome back to planDisney, Kathy. We're delighted to see you again! Your Walt Disney World Resort vacation is getting closer by the day. How exciting!
I'm a big fan of wearing a MagicBand for my family's Disney vacations.
With a MagicBand, I can tap into the turnstiles at the theme parks, link my family's Disney PhotoPass photos to my account, charge purchases to our Disney Resort hotel folio, and open our hotel room door. Talk about convenience! I saw that
you and my dear friend and fellow panelist, Jennifer, chatted a bit about MagicBand selection. To answer your follow-up question, yes, if you aren't pleased with the selection available to you at the special pre-arrival price for Disney Resort hotel Guests, you may certainly decline that offer. If you decide to purchase a MagicBand online from DisneyStore.com or when you arrive at the Walt Disney World Resort (I've found the best selection to be in in-park merchandise locations), you can simply
link it to your My Disney Experience mobile app. Just follow the prompts on the MagicBand packaging - it's super easy!
What I love most about wearing a
MagicBand+ is that it syncs with in-park experiences like
nighttime spectaculars. These interactions make those experiences all the more magical!
I hope this was helpful, Kathy. Please let us know if you have any other questions about your Walt Disney World Resort vacation! We'd love to help you plan a magical stay.
