Hiya Paige,
Your question immediately made me think about our friend Ariel for some reason. Maybe because I’ve got gadgets and gizmos aplenty, I’ve got whosits and whatsits galore, including lots of
MagicBands and now, a
MagicBand+. Even though you would think my collection’s complete, I just ordered a MagicBand+ for myself and have been doing a little extra research for my next trip to
Walt Disney World Resort. So, your timing is perfect to discover how MagicBand+ can help get you strollin’ along down, what’s that word again? Oh, Main Street, U.S.A.!
I love mixing and matching my MagicBand Mickey icon faces (also known as pucks) with the bracelets of other MagicBands, however, the size of the MagicBand+ puck is a little larger and a little more rounded making it non-interchangeable with the MagicBand bracelets.
But never fear, Paige, let me share a few ways that MagicBand+ can help you be part of that world, as in Walt Disney World. Like a MagicBand, MagicBand+ serves as your “Key to the Kingdom” during your Walt Disney World Resort stay by keeping you connected with the magical plans you made in the
My Disney Experience app. It allows Guests touch point access for theme park entry (with valid admission and park reservation),
Lightning Lane selection redemption and link those precious
Disney PhotoPass photos. For Guests staying at a
Walt Disney World Resorts Collection Hotel, you can also unlock your room door and charge dining and merchandise purchases to the credit card on file in your account.
And there are treasures untold with the MagicBand+. Looking around here you think, sure she’s got everything! During
Nighttime Spectaculars throughout Walt Disney World, your MagicBand+ will light up with a synchronized performance right on your wrist! Currently, at Walt Disney World while the
50th Anniversary Celebration is still in progress Guests can interact with the
Disney Fab 50 Character Collection with a MagicBand+. If intergalactic bounty hunting is part of your world, you can use your MagicBand+ to capture virtual bounties in
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. To keep you wanderin’ free, the MagicBand+ has a rechargeable battery that helps to power its magic and a charging cord is supplied with your purchase.
Paige, if you are staying in a Disney Resort Hotel, you can pre-purchase your MagicBand+ at a special pre-arrival price through your My Disney Experience, which saves you just enough to purchase more of your favorite thingamabobs!
We love it when fellow Guests stop by to ask your questions and get some answers, so
I hope to see you again here at planDisney!
Keep exploring the shore up above,
Shannon
