Hey Garrett, welcome back to planDisney. I'm so excited to be able to help you again with this trip you have coming up at the end of January.
Walt Disney World Resort has made amazing advancements when it comes to technology. Regardless of where you are staying, you can use
Disney MagicMobile Service for tickets with your cell phone and a compatible device such as an Apple Watch. This way you can "tap" your way around and into different attractions in theme parks. Since you are purchasing your tickets online, you can link them to a Disney MagicMobile Service pass, a
MagicBand, or a MagicBand+ which are available to all Guests regardless of where they are staying. These are the easiest ways to gain admission into any of the six theme parks found around the "World". If these options are not available to you then stop at the ticket counter at
Disney Springs, Magic Kingdom Park, EPCOT, Disney's Hollywood Studios, or Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park to pick up a complimentary Key to the World card. The card is reusable and designed as a souvenir.
planDisney Pro Tip: Since you are staying at the
Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel, you may still purchase a MagicBand or a MagicBand+ which are compatible devices to link through the
My Disney Experience Mobile App to help you gain access to the parks. You can pre-purchase a MagicBand or MagicBand+ at
shopDisney, buy one at Disney Springs, or purchase one at any of the merchandise locations located throughout Walt Disney World Resort.
Please stop back by with further questions for
me or any of my co-panelists to help plan your upcoming Disney adventure.
Garrett, enjoy making many Magical Memories.
