    Hello, My family and I are visiting Disneyworld.I will link the online tickets in the app however to help I would like to have physical tickets. Do all the adults in my group need to be present when collecting and do we all need ID (passports)?

    Hey there, Hi there, Ho there, Cayla!

    Welcome to the planDisney Roundup. It’s so nice to meet you! Now, let’s get your tickets situated for this upcoming visit.
     
    I will share my favorite way to access the Walt Disney World Resort is with a MagicBand+. They are truly your all-in-one, fashionable accessory. Not only are they a way to express your style, but they also allow you to tap into the theme parks, Lightning Lane reservations, and your room. MagicBands are the easiest way to navigate your plans, and they tend to interact with certain things you may experience while visiting. My dad was initially fine with using Disney MagicMobile until he saw how convenient my MagicBand was. He ended up purchasing one just a few hours into our visit.

    From my experience, it is best to have your party with you when accessing your tickets. This past May, my sister was going to join us in our room later that night. The Cast Member at the Front Desk said it would be best if she just stopped by the Front Desk to pick up the key card when she arrived, rather than me picking it up and passing it along. So I encourage your family to be close by when stopping by the Front Desk of your resort or when visiting the Disney Ticket Center at Disney Springs.

    If everyone in your party would rather bypass the Front Desk, I highly recommend Disney MagicMobile. Each member in your party will have the chance to create their own digital ticket to store in their mobile wallet. It makes assessing the theme parks so much easier with a quick tap of your phone. Disney MagicMobile is super easy and convenient; my husband bounces back and forth between using his phone and his MagicBand. I think he prefers the MagicBand, though, because of the theme he selected. He has a Star Wars one, and he loves it!

    Cayla, I hope this helps answer your question so that your family can coordinate their arrival. Have a great visit and make sure to capture every moment. I also encourage you to consider adding Memory Maker to your package. It’s the perfect way to get everyone in the photo. And if there’s anything else you need, we are always here to help.

    See ya real soon,

    Shantel
