    Hi, can you please help me. I have linked a magic band to the wrong person, how do i unlink and change the magic band to the correct person. I wanted to get this sorted out before we arrive on the 15th October 2024. Thank you. Regards Linda

    Welcome to planDisney, Linda!

    MagicBands are such a convenient and fun way to access everything you need during your Walt Disney World vacation. A MagicBand+ can be used for all sorts of things, like unlocking your Disney Resort hotel room, tapping into the theme parks, and making food and merchandise purchases. They are super convenient, too, if you plan on taking advantage of purchasing the new Lightning Lane Multi-Pass, Lightning Lane Single Pass or if you grab a Virtual Queue boarding group! 

    I understand that you accidentally linked a MagicBand to the wrong person, but unfortunately, once a MagicBand or MagicBand+ has been linked to a Guest, it cannot be unlinked and reassigned to another person. This feature ensures that all the magic tied to that band I mentioned above, like park tickets, room access, and Lightning Lane selections, stays with the original Guest it was assigned to.

    But Hakuna Matata! You can easily purchase a new MagicBand upon your arrival. Two of my favorite places to shop for the latest MagicBands are Pin Traders at Disney Springs and Pin Traders - Camera Center at EPCOT. They always have a great selection, and I love finding new designs featuring my favorite Disney characters. Plus, picking up a band that matches your outfit or park plans for the day is always fun! My two favorite MagicBand+ that I use interchangeably are the Disney Cruise Line band that matches my fellow planDisney Class of 2024 and my Adventureland MagicBand+ featuring my favorite rides!

    I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news, Linda., but I hope this answer helps clear up any confusion. If you have any more questions as you plan your trip, please reach out again. I hope you have a fantastic visit to The Most Magical Place On Earth!

    See you real soon,
