    Hi there! So I’m going on a trip with my family and the trip is under one persons name but I have my own magic band. How do I go about making sure I can access my meal plan and magic band without losing my magic band by connecting it to their account?

    Hi there Angelica, welcome to planDisney! Thanks for stopping by with your question, I'm thrilled to help! Can you believe your trip to Walt Disney World Resort is just a few short months away? You are sure to make awesome memories at The Most Magical Place on Earth.

    From the very start of your vacation planning to the final day of your trip, My Disney Experience offers several features to help you make the most of your Walt Disney World vacation! Angelica, your MagicBand will be linked to your My Disney Experience Account. I would suggest connecting your account with the accounts of all of your friends and family members that will be on the trip with you. That way you will still be able to access all your plans, including dining from your own account but still be able to share plans. 

    I find the easiest way to connect to the accounts of friends and family members is by using your Linking Code. To find your Linking Code, tap on the 3 horizontal lines on the bottom right of the My Disney Experience app. Then hit “My Profile.” Next, tap “Show My Linking Code.” The app will then prompt you with a warning explaining what the linking code is. Once someone scans your Linking Code, you’ll be added to their Friends & Family list. Then tap “Show My Linking Code.” The app will then create a unique linking code. There’s a QR version as well as a manual code that your friends and family can type in.

    If your friend or family wants to scan a linking code to connect to you (or you want to scan someone else’s linking code) - tap on the three horizontal lines to the bottom right of the My Disney Experience app. Select “My Profile” and then “Friends & Family List.” You’ll then scroll down to where it says “Add a Guest.” Follow the prompts to Scan their Linking Code. You’ll scan your friend or family member’s linking code when they have it up on their phone, or you can manually enter the code. That's It!

    Angelica, I hope you find this information helpful. Thank you again for visiting planDisney. We'll see ya real soon!
