Hello Paul,
As the current British Mum here on the Disney Parks Moms Panel may I thank you for asking us such an important question.
October and indeed the whole of
Autumn at Walt Disney World Resort is such a wonderful time of the yEar for a jolly Florida holiday and by opting to stay for at least part of your trip within the beautiful African theming of
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge - is practically perfect in every way!
I'm pleased to share that although MagicBands are not currently shipped to international Guests like you and I, we do have the useful option of being able to arrange for
MagicBands to be shipped to a non-Disney Resort hotel (with a valid US postal address) prior to our check-in date.
Plus it may be useful to know that all Guests can perform an
Online Check-in prior to arrival at Walt Disney World Resort which means on arrival day at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park you can simply head straight to the
Online Check-in Desk located near the
Lobby Concierge where your
MagicBands and welcome folder will be awaiting collection after which you'll be able to discover the
Power of Magic within the Disney Theme Parks at Walt Disney World Resort.
Have a great Disney day.
~ Jane
