Howdy, fellow Texan! I’m delighted to welcome you to planDisney, Yolanda!
You must be thrilled to be so close to setting out on your magical adventure at Walt Disney World Resort! I sure hope you’re ready for all the delectable delights and Mickey-shaped snacks!
Yolanda, you’re correct about
MagicBands no longer being complimentary; however, you’ll be happy to find that Key to the World admission cards are complimentary. They operate as your
Disney Resorts Collection hotel room key,
theme park ticket, and payment method should you choose to charge back to your Disney Resorts Collection room. Not to mention, they are absolutely adorable because they are themed with the Sensational Six: Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, Donald, and Daisy! You would be able to pick up the admission cards from a friendly Cast Member at the front desk of your Disney Resorts Collection hotel or the Will Call windows located at the entrance of each of the theme parks.
Another complimentary option to enter the theme parks is the digital pass called
Disney MagicMobile service on your
My Disney Experience Mobile app. It’s a contactless way to enter the parks and connects through your smartphone. Guests using an iPhone, Apple Watch, or Google Pay-enabled Android phone can set up the Disney MagicMobile pass by following the steps in the app to create their digital passes. Once you have created your passes, you can upload them to your Apple Wallet or Google Pay and scan them to enter the theme parks.
If you have a previously used MagicBand, that should work as your theme park ticket, as well!
Do be sure you’ve made your
Disney Park Pass reservations, as these are required along with your tickets to enter the parks!
We can’t wait to welcome you to the magic, Yolanda! Have an enchanting time.
Aena
