Hi Andrea, Welcome to planDisney! Your trip to Walt Disney World Resort will be here before you know it!
MagicBands are one of my favorite accessories while at Disney as it offers such a convenience! They can be used to open your resort room door, PhotoPass and most importantly, enter the parks!
Would you believe that I've had my Magic Band since 2018 and it still works great with no issues? That's because there is no battery in the band at all! Now I will say, during our last visit, I upgraded to a
MagicBand+ and haven't looked back! MagicBand+ adds an all-new touch of magic to your vacation throughout Walt Disney World Resort. With customizable light-up themes, haptic vibrations and more, MagicBand+ offers a new kind of magical experience. My kids thought it was so cool to use their MagicBand+ to interact with the
Disney Fab 50 Character Collection throughout the parks.
I want you to know that you have several options to access the magic on your upcoming visit! I highly recommend setting up
Disney MagicMobile Service via the My Disney Experience app. This service also allows Guests to enter the theme parks (with valid theme park admission and reservations), link Disney PhotoPass images to their Disney accounts, and charge purchases to their Disney Resort hotel. If you'd prefer to have a physical card linked to your account for use during your visit, simply visit a Guest Relations location for assistance.
I hope this information helps you prepare for an exciting visit to Walt Disney World Resort, Andrea! Thank you again for visiting planDisney. We'll see ya real soon!
