2 magic bands, double fast pass+?

[Jack23]

I have an option to order 2 sets of magic bands because I have two separate hotel reservations. Just happened that way. If I have two magic bands will I get double fast pass?
I thought i heard something about this before but I may be mistaken. I have one ticket for each park already purchased. If so, how do you know which band has the fast pass?

No. You will NOT get double fastpasses. Everything in your MDE account is the same on both MB's.

That does work, but NOT if all of your multiplicity of MagicBands are linked to the same (your one and only) MyDisneyExperience account.

ANY of the multiple MBs that is linked to YOU will be able to be used for tickets, room door, FP+, etc. at the same time.

You may use any MB that you have, interchangeably.

Thanks for the info! I still don't understand. I was looking for a thread but couldn't find one.

Thanks for the info! I still don't understand.

Just to keep things as clear as possible-

There is no reservation info, or ticket info, or credit card info,
or FP+ info "put onto" a MagicBand.

A MagicBand just contains (and weakly "transmits") a unique serial number that is used to access the information that is stored in your MyDisneyExperience computer file.

So, even if you were to lose a MagicBand, the info stays locked in your file.
Disney can just set up a new band (different serial number)
to access the info in your MDE file.

Disney can also issue ADDITIONAL MB's to a guest and each
additional band can be used for the same purposes as the first band.

So, yes, there can be multiple MB's per person, and each of them can be used by that person.

The MagicBand works like the combination to a locked safe, or a key to a locked door.

The MB, itself, is not the file of info or the container of the info.

The MB just unlocks the file of info, allowing it to be accessed from your MDE account when needed.

This means if you drop it, and someone else picks it up they can use it to buy things at stores if you have a card attached to it, or if they can get to a kiosk they can use it to find out what fast passes you have use them. Protect it like you would your wallet.

Charging with a found MB.... not unless you know the 4 digit numeric PIN number attached to it.
You have to both scan the Mickey head & enter the PIN to make purchases or use dining plan credits.
And park access is scan & fingerprint.

Love the magic band. If I could only find a Troy themed one.

Yes, you need to know the PIN number associated with the band in order to charge on it.
