Hi Richard! Congratulations on your upcoming first visit to the Walt Disney World Resort! Be sure to check out the “first-time visit” video that I included with the answer to your question. In the video, my fellow planDisney, Elaine, and I provide tips and advice for first-time visitors!
Richard, I highly recommend the
MagicBand+. Consider it a stylish accessory that will add convenience to your vacation. Your MagicBand will provide many services including – resort hotel room key, charging privileges, theme park admission, capturing Disney PhotoPass image, and more! With a tap of the band around your wrist, you’ll gain access to your resort hotel room, be admitted to the theme parks, charge snacks, food, and merchandise to your room, and automatically link Disney PhotoPass images captured throughout your day to your My Disney Experience account.
I always visit with a MagicBand! I find it incredibly convenient to have everything I need around my wrist. And, with so many amazing options from which to choose, you will surely find a band that matches your “Disney personality.” Bands are themed to Disney characters, movies, resorts, attractions, and more!
Richard, MagicBands can’t be shipped internationally but can be purchased at most Walt Disney World Resort hotels, Disney Parks, and
Disney Springs. There is a huge variety from which you can choose. Once you purchase your band you can link it to your My Disney Experience account in minutes! MagicBands can range in price from about $35 to $65 (plus tax). Purchase it, open it, link it, and put it on your wrist for vacation convenience!
Dreams come true!
Jonathan
