At what point should MB's ship to resort?

[RikkiTurner]

My customisation deadline for Magic Bands was October 8th. Since that date on the MDE site I get the message 'Act quickly, your order may ship at any moment'

I thought this was probably fine as it was shipping straight to the resort but others in the below thread are saying it could be a problem. They are saying that bands can get stuck in limbo.

Can anyone who has traveled recently let me know roughly how far in advance the bands are shipped to the resort?

Thanks

If you have an international address the bands do not ship until about 5 days prior to check in - so your fine

everyone sees the act quickly reminder once they reach a couple of weeks out (the adress is irrelevant for that display)

btw. you should have entered your UK adress not the resort adress.

Change the address - it needs to be your home UK address otherwise there is a high probability that your bands will get lost.
