Hi ya, Catherine!
Welcome to planDisney, and hooray, you’re going to Walt Disney World! I know you mentioned “if,” but I’m hoping that since then, it has become a solid yes. When it comes to a Walt Disney World vacation, no matter the length of the visit, I’m so there. We just did a quick one-day visit earlier this month, and although everything was planned the week of, it was still a lot of fun! Honestly, a day at Disney is better than a day anywhere else.
The good news is, you don’t need a
MagicBand to visit and enjoy the theme parks. Instead, you can use
Disney MagicMobile service. After purchasing your theme park tickets, you’ll want to link them to your My Disney Experience account and their rightful owner. After linking them, you’ll head over to the “hamburger” icon located in the bottom-right corner of the My Disney Experience mobile app. Scroll down until you see “Set Up MagicMobile Entry. Follow the instructions to choose your pass style. From there, you can add your pass to your digital wallet. Simply select the plus icon and follow those prompts to add your MagicMobile pass to your Apple Wallet or Google Wallet. After that, you're all set!
When we visit, we usually use MagicBands, but on several occasions, we’ve rushed out of the room and left them behind. That’s when Disney MagicMobile kicks in and saves the day!
Catherine, I hope this helps so that you can have the most magical visit! Before I go, I do want to recommend purchasing
Lightning Lane for your visit. It’s the best way to maximize your time, especially since you’ll be visiting for one day. Enjoy every minute of this visit, and if there’s anything else we can help with, you know
where to find us!
Magical Memories,
Shantel
