Ahoy, Renaye!
It’s so exciting to hear you’re planning to add a little extra magic to your Disney cruise with
DisneyBand+! My family and I love using ours on board—it’s so convenient for unlocking our stateroom door, making purchases, and even adding a touch of magic during deck parties and live shows when they light up and interact. Plus, let’s be honest, they’re just plain fun!
Since your cruise is coming up in less than a week, the window for pre-ordering DisneyBand+ has closed (they need to be ordered
at least 11 days before your sail date). But don’t worry—I’ve got you covered with some options to get your hands on these magical accessories!
First, you’ll be able to purchase DisneyBand+ designs onboard your ship. Each ship typically carries a selection of 3–4 designs, and they’re available at onboard shops like Mickey’s Mainsail. While the selection may be more limited than the pre-order options, you’ll still find some great designs to choose from.
Second, if your travel plans allow, you can make a quick stop at Disney Springs before your cruise.
World of Disney is the ultimate treasure trove for DisneyBand+ and MagicBand+ designs. If you’re an Annual Passholder or have park access, you can also find them at various locations throughout Walt Disney World Resort.
Third, you can check the
online Disney Store for DisneyBand+ or MagicBand+ designs. They often have a wide variety to choose from, and you might even spot a design that’s perfect for you and Daniel. However, since your sail date is very close, there’s a chance that shipping times may not work in your favor. Be sure to check the expected delivery date before ordering!
Now, you may have noticed both DisneyBand+ and MagicBand+ mentioned, and I want to clear up any confusion. Both bands are
compatible with Disney Cruise Line and Walt Disney World, so whether you purchase a DisneyBand+ with a nautical theme onboard or a MagicBand+ with a park-inspired design at Disney Springs, you’re good to go! I’ve also found that the DisneyBand+ designs often come with some extra customizable light-up themes exclusive to Disney Cruise Line, which adds a fun touch to your onboard experience.
Renaye, I hope this helps you get everything shipshape before your magical voyage! Whether you’re unlocking the magic with a DisneyBand+ or soaking in the sun on the pool deck, your cruise is sure to be unforgettable.
Wishing you smooth seas, magical accessories, and a vacation filled with memories to treasure!
Sea ya real soon with pixie dust and ocean breezes,
Dustin
