2015 Annual Passholder MagicBand Sliders are now being shipped - GREEN!

Can you make fast pass picks if you haven't activated your AP? Our trip is in October, but I don't want to activate the pass to soon.

We are staying on site.

If you have either a will call confirmation or exchange certificates (aka vouchers) for the Annual Pass(es), these are linkable to MDE and will allow advance FP+ selections.

I purchased an AP voucher last week and added it to my MDE account. I'm from Europe and plan to visit WDW for 2 weeks in October/November this year and for 2 weeks in October 2016. This way the AP was the cheapest ticket option for me. Because I'm staying onsite this year I have already customized a magic band that I have to pick up at the hotel upon arrival.

I understand that I have to activate the AP at a ticket window and after that I can customize an AP magic band in MDE. I know that this AP magic band cannot be used for this trip and normally within the US it will be shipped to you to be used for your next trip. Magic bands normally aren't shipped outside the US though so I wonder if I have to pick up my AP magic band + magic slider on my next trip in 2016 and where I have to pick it up (hotel or ticket window?). As I will be staying onsite again in 2016 I probably have to customize a regular magic band that I can pick up at the hotel. So will I get 2 magic bands in 2016 then (regular + AP)? Does anyone know how this works?

Last year I remember that we were able to pick up a AP MB slider at the guest services at the parks - has anyone tried that with the 2015 one yet? TIA!

I'd like to know this too! Our APs expired 1/3/15 but we renewed them in December so we could make FP+ for our February onsite trip. Despite delaying customizing our new AP MB until early January, they arrived with the 2014 sliders! I want the 2015 ones!
