Hi Anne,
Your visit to "The Most Magical Place on Earth" is just a little over a month away! Are you in official countdown mode yet? My family likes to decorate a paper chain with all of the magic we're looking forward to experiencing, then we tear off a link each day and do a little song and dance to celebrate that our trip will be here soon!
As long as you
customize your MagicBands within your My Disney Experience account at least 11 days prior to your arrival, they should be shipped to your home. If you personalize them early enough, they usually arrive a few weeks before your trip. That's always an exciting day when you discover an unmarked, yet magical box in your mailbox! If you wait a bit longer before submitting your selections, your MagicBands will arrive closer to your trip. If you wait to
customize your MagicBands until 6 - 10 days prior to your check-in, your personalized ones will be waiting for you at the front desk of your
Disney Resort hotel when you arrive. And if you happen to forget to customize them at least six days in advance, Hakuna Matata...no worries, you'll still receive complimentary non-customized MagicBands when you arrive. Don't forget that Disney Resort hotel Guests now have the option to
upgrade to a premium MagicBand for a small additional fee, so have a blast choosing the
perfect MagicBands to express your personal Disney style!
Thanks so much for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Anne, and please come back and see us again if there's anything else that we can do to help you
plan your visit. I hope that you have a truly magical vacation!
Missy
