Hi, there!
Welcome to planDisney, Kaylee. I'm so excited to hear you're planning another Walt Disney World Resort vacation! It's the very best kind if you ask me.
It's super great that you're taking along a friend who has never experienced a Disney vacation. With
The World's Most Magical Celebration well underway and the
holiday season just kicking off, there's lots of new magic to discover in the theme parks! You're sure to enjoy lots of pixie-dusted adventures together.
To answer your question,
once a MagicBand is linked to your My Disney Experience account, it cannot be transferred to another person. But not to worry!
MagicBands are available for purchase at retail locations throughout the Walt Disney World Resort. When you arrive at your Disney Resorts Collection hotel, you'll even find MagicBands available for purchase at the hotel gift shop! How convenient is that? Once your friend has purchased a MagicBand, she can link it to her My Disney Experience account by following the simple directions listed on the packaging.
Have you heard about
Disney MagicMobile Service? Guests can create a Disney MagicMobile Pass in the
My Disney Experience mobile app and then link that pass to their digital wallet on their eligible iPhone or other smart device. A Disney MagicMobile Pass works much like a MagicBand in that you can use it to enter the theme parks, connect Disney PhotoPass photos to your account, and charge purchases to your Disney Resort hotel folio. Your friend may be interested in using a Disney MagicMobile Pass instead of a MagicBand!
I hope this was helpful, Kaylee. I'm wishing you another magical stay at the Walt Disney World Resort!
