Welcome to planDisney, Sandra! Thanks for sailing to us with your question as you prepare for your upcoming Disney Cruise vacation. Oh boy! It won't be long till you are stepping aboard for an adventure at sea.
While
pre-arrival online orders for
DisneyBand+ are only available for eligible guests at least 11 days before the sailing date, you can purchase a DisneyBand+ while onboard! If you already have a MagicBand+ from a Walt Disney World Resort or Disneyland Resort vacation, you can use that onboard too. I must admit, I'm pretty tempted by the exclusive Disney Cruise Line designs of the DisneyBand+, so I'm sure I'll be shopping for one the next time I sail.
I hope you enjoy the hands-free convenience that the DisneyBand+ will provide for you throughout your cruise. You'll be able to access your stateroom, tap to pay at merchandise locations, link your cruise photos, and enjoy some surprise Disney magic moments with the interactive elements of the band.
Sandra, as you are likely starting to pack for your cruise, I'd love to share the
handy packing list that Disney Cruise Line provides to guests. Please be sure to download or make sure you have the latest update for the
Disney Cruise Line Navigator app before you leave home. The app will point your compass toward all of the dining, activities, entertainment, and fun that will be found on the ship.
Have a magical sailing! Bon Voyage!
