    I went to Disney world back in FEB but will be returning in September. I have a keycard from that trip. Can I reuse that card for my future trips ? If so, how do I link it to my new reservation or does it link up automatically when the time comes?

    Welcome to planDisney, Kelly! 

    I see that you're planning your second Walt Disney World Resort vacation this year. You're my kind of Mouseketeer! 

    While Resort Refillable Mugs are unable to be used on multiple visits, I'm happy to report that this is not the case for Key to the World Cards. If you'd like to reuse the card from your last visit, you're more than welcome to do so! Because these cards remain linked to your My Disney Experience account, there is no need to link the card to a new Disney Resort hotel reservation or theme park ticket. Once a reservation or ticket is linked to your account, it is automatically paired with all active cards and MagicBands on your My Disney Experience account.

    For peace of mind, I would suggest verifying your card's activation status before arrival. You can easily do this by logging into your My Disney Experience account and selecting 'My MagicBands & Cards'. From there, you'll scroll to 'Manage MagicBands or Cards' and click on the triangle by your character icon to see a list of the MagicBands and Cards currently linked to your account. If you don't see your card listed there or can't access your account, Hakuna Matata, you can easily request a new card at your Disney Resort hotel upon check-in, order a MagicBand at a special pre-arrival price, or utilize Disney MagicMobile service during your vacation. 

    I hope this was helpful, Kelly! If you find yourself planning a third visit in 2025 (which I fully support), feel free to reach back out to us at planDisney. You've got a friend in us!
