    Do I need to pair my magicband to my phone to use Lightning lanes??

    Hi Julianne,

    Welcome back to planDisney! I'm happy to talk through all the details for your upcoming visit.

    Purchasing Lightning Lane Passes is a great way to reduce your standby wait at popular attractions. If you have a MagicBand or MagicBand+, you'll be able to use them to tap into the Lightning Lane entrances during your return window. I love this hands-free convenience, especially because my hands are usually carrying a Mickey-shaped snack, a water bottle, or a bag full of souvenirs. If you'd like to do the same, you'll need to make sure your bands are linked to your My Disney Experience Account. Check out the helpful how-to videos here

    If you don't have a MagicBand+ you'll still be able to access attractions with the purchase of Lightning Lane Passes by setting up Disney MagicMobile Service on your phone. I just helped a friend create passes for her family's upcoming visit and she loved choosing a different pass style for each person. I have one set up in my phone's wallet as well, so I won't miss a minute of the magic if I ever misplace my MagicBand+. You can use MagicMobile to link Disney PhotoPass photos and charge purchases to your Disney Resorts Collection hotel room, too!

    I hope this helps, Julianne. If you need technical support or have additional questions please come back and let us know, or reach out to a Cast Member by phone.

    Wishing you a magical visit,
    Amy
