Hi Robert,
Welcome back to planDisney and thank you for asking us a question, my fellow Canadian. It’s lovely to see you again!
I just got back from a trip to Walt Disney World Resort with 8 other people, and we all ordered brand new
MagicBands, too! I’m happy to say that I was able to order and link each MagicBand to the appropriate person in my party, even if they controlled their own
My Disney Experience profile.
The easiest way I’ve found to do this is to go into your “Resort Hotel” section of the app, and then click on the “Choose MagicBands” option (you’ll find it under the Room Number section.) Then, you’ll be able to pick out MagicBands for the members of your party who are included in your hotel reservation, regardless of whether you control their My Disney Experience profile. You will then be able to pick a MagicBand for each member of your party or Decline a New MagicBand for a given person if they don’t want a new one at this time. When you check out, you’ll see that you won’t have the option to ship your MagicBands to your Canadian address because they can’t be shipped internationally. Instead, they’ll get sent directly to your
Disney Resorts Collection hotel and will be waiting for your to pick up when you check in.
I hope that this helps you plan the perfect Disney Parks holiday, Robert! Please don’t hesitate to come back and see us if you have any other questions.
Have a Magical Day,
Lynne
