Hi Stephanie,
Welcome aboard planDisney! You must be so excited to be just days away from your
Disney Cruise Line vacation. I’m glad you stopped by with your question.
Guests sailing aboard the
Disney Wish will be able to use
DisneyBand+ or
MagicBand+ during their sailings. Since you have the MagicBand (rather than the MagicBand+) you cannot use your current bands aboard the ship. While
DisneyBand+ is not a necessity for sailing, you can decide if you would like to purchase one. Unfortunately, it appears that your window for purchasing it at the pre-sailing price may have passed, but
you can still purchase special Disney Cruise Line designs aboard the ship.
Some of the
magical features of a DisneyBand+ include being able to enter your stateroom and
Kids' Clubs and pay for merchandise hands-free. DisneyBand+ also makes it easier to capture your photos while on board. There are also special interactions around the ship! Also, DisneyBand+ can be used at
Walt Disney World Resort and
Disneyland Resort.
Stephanie, there is so much to love about the Disney Wish. I highly recommend taking the Walking the Wish tour, which shares some of the impressive technology and magical touches that went into the making of the Disney Wish. Just check your
Disney Cruise Line Navigator App when you board for the time and meeting location. In the meantime, you can explore this beautiful ship in this
planDisney Pocket Guide to the Disney Wish!
Thanks for cruising by, Stephanie. Please let us know if you have any other questions or need any tips for making the most of your vacation.
May all your wishes come true,
Shannon
