Hiya Nate!
Welcome to planDisney, the most magical place on the internet! I am so glad you decided to add MagicBands to your vacation, as they truly make your experience so much more magical. Indeed, as someone who tends to forget their hotel cards inside the room, I personally could not stay at the Walt Disney World Resort without them!
After chatting with a Cast Member on this issue, I was informed that if you received notice that the MagicBand has already been shipped, there is, unfortunately, no way to change the address of reception at that time. However, if it has not been shipped, you can
call a Cast Member to change that address. If possible, therefore, I would recommend making this upgrade and contacting a Cast Member as soon as possible!
Now, Nate, I hope you will consider trying the brand-new
MagicBand+ device on your future visits! I got to try it on my last Walt Disney World Resort trip, and it indeed added so much magic to my trip. Not only do the new MagicBand+ devices have the same features as previous MagicBands, but they also have additional interactive features like the
Disney Fab 50 Quest and the Star Wars: Batuu Bounty Hunters. My favourite feature, however, had to be when my MagicBand+ synced with the fireworks and attractions I visited. Watching
Fantasmic! and seeing the different colours from the show on my MagicBand+, or walking out of
Remy's Ratatouille Adventure and seeing my bracelet light up like the french flag just made it all even more magical!
I hope this was helpful, Nate, and that you will have the best day ever on your upcoming Disney vacation! If you have any other questions in the time leading up to your trip, please don't hesitate to reach back out. It is always such an honour to help fellow international Guests like me!
Have a magical day,
Ariane
