Welcome to planDisney, Julie!
I am so happy to hear that you will be your friend’s Fairy Godmother as she returns to the magic of the Walt Disney World Resort after 20 years. I cannot wait for you to make memories you will cherish forever!
MagicBands are so much fun and make great souvenirs! While they can be used again by the person they are linked to, they cannot be reassigned to another Guest. Although you cannot transfer one of your MagicBands to your friend, you can make her visit even more special by giving her a new one as a gift! You can
order a MagicBand ahead of your visit online at shopDisney.com or purchase one upon arrival. They are available at several merchandise locations throughout the Walt Disney World Resort.
If you decide not to use a MagicBand, you are welcome to use the
My Disney Experience app to create a
Disney MagicMobile pass and use your mobile device as your ticket to enter the parks and water parks (with valid admission). You can also pick up physical tickets at will-call windows located at the entrance of all four theme parks, at any
Guest Relations location, or at the
Disney Ticket Center at Disney Springs. Staying at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel? Stop by Front Desk and request a Key to the World card that can be used in lieu of a MagicBand.
I hope this information is helpful, Julie! Come back to visit us if you have additional questions and have a magical visit to the Walt Disney World Resort!
