Heigh-Ho Brandee,
Welcome to planDisney, I am thrilled to hEAR you will be visiting
The Most Magical Place on Earth in just a short bit. As your arrival date comes closer stay up to date by following the Disney Parks Blog and become comfortable navigating your
My Disney Experience mobile app. The handy-dandy app gives Guest access to their Disney Resorts Collection hotel vacation package/room-only reservation, purchase/link/upgrade Walt Disney World tickets, make/cancel Disney Parks Pass reservations, utilize the
Disney MagicMobile service, research/reserve advanced table-service dining reservations,
make mobile food and beverage orders, show attraction wait times and that’s only a tidbit of it’s pixie-dusted Magic. Discover what else the My Disney Experience mobile app can do for you.
Your curiouser and curiouser inquiry about purchasing a MagicBand for your son will depend on who has control of his Walt Disney World ticket and Disney Park Pass reservations. If the school organizer has control and you or he decides to purchase a MagicBand, then once he arrives at Walt Disney World and at any time visit Guest Relations with the MagicBand and they can link his ticket. A Cast Member will need his ticket ID number or a Key to the World card, which is a hard ticket, to aid in linking his ticket information to his MagicBand. MagicBands can be purchased all around the Walt Disney World Resort or by visiting
shopDisney. If you order on shopDisney and there is no customization your MagicBand will arrive in 5-7 days and one that is customized will take 1-2 weeks.
I hope this information is helpful and feel free to reach out with any further Walt Disney World vacation questions. I know your upcoming stay will be filled with many magical and memorable moments.
Have a Practically Perfect Day,
Amy M.
