    If I'm staying on site and I bought my magic band+ through the MDE app, do I need to do anything besides pair and update them?? They each have our names on them and was paired accordingly to each person just not sure if I need to link anything else.

    Hey Howdy Hey Savannah and welcome to planDisney! 

    Savannah you are one step closer to your Magical vacation to the Walt Disney World Resort now that you have your MagicBand+. While there is a lot to plan for a vacation to Walt Disney World, it sounds like you have a really good start. Let's go over a few things to keep in mind specific to your MagicBand+ so you are ready to go!

    Now that you have your bands, the biggest thing you need to do is pair them with your devices and update the software if needed. After that, you are all set! You are going to want to make sure to bring your chargers with you as a full day's events will almost fully deplete the battery. As long as you have everything else such as your tickets, Disney Resorts hotel accommodations and dining reservations linked to your My Disney Experience account, you should be able to access them all during your trip right from your MagicBand. This will work the same with any Lightning Lanes purchased or Virtual Queues booked for any attractions during your vacation as well. 

    I'm sure you know, but there are so many cool ways to use your MagicBand+ to become part of the story in all the parks. You can become a Bounty Hunter making your way through Batuu in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge and even celebrate with Elsa and all of Arendelle during For the First Time in Forever: A Frozen Sing-Along Celebration. There are so many ways to be involved and I can't wait for you to have that experience. 

    It sounds like you have your planning all set but if you do come across any other questions feel free to let us know, we are always happy to help!

    To Infinity and Beyond, 

    Nick
