Hi Cheyann,
Greetings from a fellow Hoosier! I hope you're getting excited about your
fall getaway to "The Most Magical Place on Earth!" It will be here before you know it! Hopefully your
FastPass+ plans are all set and you're counting down the days to all of the magic and fun.
As long as you've already registered for
Disney's Magical Express, you'll receive luggage tags around 2-3 weeks before your trip, and they'll come in an envelope along with a helpful letter full of information about how to use Disney's Magical Express service. Your tags will look like other airline baggage tags, only they'll be bright yellow with your name and
Disney Resort hotel listed along with a colored Mickey Mouse head. They're really easy to attach to any checked luggage, and after you drop them off at your departing airport, you won't need to worry about them again until they magically appear in your Disney Resort hotel room! Your
MagicBands will arrive around the same time, but will be shipped separately in a box. Even gathering the mail is magical when you're about to head out on a Disney adventure!
Here's a tip for you...don't pack your MagicBands in your checked luggage! We always put them on our wrists as soon as we leave home, and you'll want them when you arrive in Orlando. When you check in at Disney's Magical Express on Side B, Level 1, you'll be able to scan your MagicBand there and your incredible Disney vacation will begin!
Thanks so much for visiting us at the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Cheyann, and please come back and see us again if you have any other questions as you're getting ready for your visit. I hope that you have a truly magical vacation!
Missy
