Hiya John!
Welcome to planDisney, the most magical place on the internet. Wow, John, your magical vacation is coming so soon! I am so glad you will be visiting the most wonderful time of the year, and I cannot wait for you to experience all of its unique festive offerings.
As someone who also had multiple theme park tickets in my account, I had the same fear on my last Disney trip. Thankfully, the
Disney Park Pass System solves this issue completely! Indeed, all Guests are required to have a
valid theme park ticket as well as a theme park reservation linked to that ticket. When booking your theme park reservations, you will have the opportunity to select which theme park ticket you want to use. Therefore, when tapping your MagicBand in the parks, the system will only be able to use the ticket with a valid theme park reservation for that day and theme park. For this reason, I would also recommend avoiding making theme park reservations with those special tickets until you are absolutely ready to use them, as it can be trickier if both tickets have reservations simultaneously.
Now, I am also glad to see that you will be using a MagicBand, and I just wanted to recommend the new
MagicBand+ as well! The new MagicBand+ dropped this past summer and recently moved to
include the Disneyland Resort too, and I absolutely love mine. If you are travelling with little ones (or kids at heart like me), the
Disney Fab 50 Quest and the Star Wars: Batuu Bounty Hunters are such fun things to do while walking around the theme parks. In addition, MagicBand+ synchs up while watching nighttime spectaculars like
Disney Enchantment,
Harmonious and
Fantasmic! to make your experience even more immersive. MagicBand+ devices are available online on
shopDisney and in person at select merchandise locations.
I hope this was helpful, John, and that you will have the best day ever on your upcoming Disney vacation. If you have any other questions leading up to your trip, please don't hesitate to reach out! Much like the Mickey Mouse Club, you're as welcome as can be here at planDisney.
Have a magical day,
Ariane
