Hi Natalie! Welcome back to planDisney! It's great to have you stop by again!
I'm excited to hear about your upcoming visit to the
Walt Disney World Resort! Before you know it, next summer will be upon us, and you'll be arriving for a magical Walt Disney World holiday. Let's dive into your question and help you plan for an unforgettable stay.
Natalie, you'll be happy to know that you can purchase new Disney Bands and link them to your My Disney Experience account instantly. Once you arrive on-site for your trip, stop by just about any merchandise location at the parks, resorts, or World of Disney to find a selection of Disney Bands to choose from. Once you make your purchase, you'll open up the
My Disney Experience App on your mobile device and select "My Tickets & Passes." You'll then tap on the "+" sign on the top right corner of your screen and select "Link Tickets & Passes." Then, enter the unique ID Number located on the backside of the Disney Band to link it to the appropriate Guest on your account. Keep in mind that once a Disney Band is linked to a specific Guest, it can not be switched to anyone else.
Disney Bands will come in handy in more ways than one. Not only can you use them to enter the theme parks, but you can also tap into Lightning Lane entrances that you have return times set up with. They can also be used as entry into your Disney Resort hotel room and for purchases throughout your stay if you are staying in one of these resorts. The options are truly endless.
Natalie, I hope this information helps you plan for your stay!
Stop back and see us again at planDisney!
