Hi Yudet! Welcome back to planDisney.
Long time no chat! Your June arrival at
Walt Disney World Resort is so very close. Create a group scavenger at all four theme parks looking for the golden
Disney Fab 50 Character Collection statues. They make fun and unique backgrounds for lasting memories. You can find Nemo to the right of the
Tree of Life at
Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park.
This time, let's cover my favorite Disney accessory,
MagicBands. I am highly anticipating the summer arrival of the interactive
MagicBand+. Because of supply chain issues, MagicBand selections have been limited online. Personally, I have found the selection at the theme parks, resorts, and gift shops to be better. I recommend you wait until you arrive to purchase. Once purchased, link your new arm candy through the
My Disney Experience Mobile App. Click on the bottom three horizontal lines in the bottom right-hand corner, scroll to "My Profile," tap on "MagicBands & Cards," and "Link a MagicBand or Card." You will follow the prompts to enter the ID Code or scan the code.
If you are concerned about park entry, you do have other options. You may create a
Disney MagicMobile Digital Pass for guests with valid Theme Park Tickets. In the app, select "Disney MagicMobile," click on the "+" sign, select the guest name, and follow the prompts to complete. Afterward, add your pass to your Apple Wallet, Apple Watch, or digital wallet. I recommend setting your pass "Express Mode" which will eliminate the need to unlock your phone at the gate. Alternatively, you can always visit any ticket booth located outside of all the theme parks or
The Ticket Center at Disney Springs to get a physical ticket card. Please bring your photo ID, proof of purchase, and the original form of payment.
Your visit is during some of the last days of the
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. Make sure to stop by an
outdoor kitchen for a fresh culinary delight. My favorite was the Spicy Hot Dog with Pineapple Chutney and Plantain Chips from Pineapple Promenade near the Port of Entry.
EPCOT is home to the newest out of this world attraction,
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. In June, you will have access to this ride by
virtual queue or
Individual Lightning Lane purchase. As a Disney Resort Collection Guest, you can make that purchase at 7:00 AM.
Keeping it Magical,
Cindy
