Hi ya, Linda!
Welcome back to planDisney, it’s so nice to meet you. I’m thrilled to hear that you have an upcoming family vacation. There’s nothing more special than bringing the family together at Walt Disney World. It’s even more special to me because I grew up going to the theme parks and now I’m able to recreate some of those memories with my own children. I love every minute of it!
The good news is, yes, you can order your children their
MagicBand+ and decline purchasing yours and your husbands. You can do this on a computer or using the
My Disney Experience Mobile app. I’ll walk you through using the app. You’ll begin by opening the app and selecting the three horizontal lines in the bottom right-hand corner. This will open up your personalized page. Scroll down a bit until you see the “My Visit” heading and select “Future Plans.” Once there, you will scroll down until you see your upcoming resort reservation. Once you find it, click the blue heading directly beneath the resort name that says, “View Room Details”. You should then see a MagicBand image with the subheading, “Choose MagicBands”. Click on that to open up the selection page.
On the selection page you will see the names of everyone linked to your reservation. Simply go through each person one by one and either choose their MagicBand to purchase, or hit the “Decline a MagicBand” link directly below their name. After that, follow the remaining prompts to complete your purchase. After that, and a little magic, you're all set!
Linda, I hope these step by step instructions help you complete your purchase. Don’t forget to complete your o
rder at least 11 days before your arrival if you would like your MagicBands shipped to your home! I usually place my order way before then and add the MagicBands to my “pack stack” as soon as they arrive in my mailbox. I like to be prepared.
Enjoy your visit and take lots of photos!
