    Hello, We are planning a trip to Disney World. The adults all have phones that can utilize the Disney World App. Can the children enter with one of the adults scanning them in or do they need a physical ticket or do they need a MagicBand?

    Hi Patrick, and welcome to planDisney!

    Your Walt Disney World Resort vacation arrival isn’t too far away, so this is a great time to start the planning phase of the vacation planning process. It sounds like you will bring along some additional family and friends, making your experience much more enjoyable. 

    The children will need to have theme park tickets that are assigned to them. I have had an occurrence where I had to scan my son’s theme park ticket from my My Disney Experience mobile app, and it worked out well. In that case, he had misplaced his MagicBand, so we were able to improvise at that moment. Having that personal experience, I would recommend picking up their physical theme park tickets at the Guest Relations booth at the entrance of one of the theme parks you plan to visit or the Disney Ticket Center at Disney Springs. Another option would be to purchase a MagicBand+, which could come in handy, and kids will love them. I hope this was helpful.

    Please return and let us know how we can help. 

    Have a magical time!
