    How do I purchase magic bands in advance? I went to it on the Disney experience website, but I don’t want to buy one for everyone on our reservation. Just for two people out of the 5 group. Is it possible to order them ahead for just 2 people?

    Hi Samantha!

    Thanks for bringing your question to planDisney! I know ordering a MagicBand+ and waiting for that special delivery can be an exciting part of preparing for your Walt Disney World vacation, so I’m glad you stopped by planDisney before placing your order. 

    MagicBand+ pre-orders can only be completed once per Resort reservation. If you place an order for two out of the five total Guests, the remaining three Guests would be unable to pre-order a MagicBand+ before your arrival. That also means the Guests who are not included in the pre-order will not receive the special pre-arrival price! 

    If you complete your pre-order 11 days or more before your arrival, your order will be shipped to your home. For orders placed 6-10 days before you check in, the MagicBand+ order will be sent to the Front Desk of your Disney Resort. You cannot place a MagicBand+ order 5 or fewer days before your arrival. 

    The MagicBand+ designs offered for pre-order can change, Samantha. If you see something you like now, it might not be available if you wait too long to place your order. There’s always a large selection of designs available in the shopping locations throughout Walt Disney World; however, they will not be eligible for that pre-arrival discount. 

    I hope this helps, Samantha! You can use this information to remind your fellow travelers to consider the MagicBand+ designs available now. If you have any more questions, please send them our way at planDisney!
