Castmember using Magic Bands

[Luckymommatoo]

Just wondering if there are any other CMs out there who have used Magic Bands. I am feeling a little frustrated -- I was told on the phone that if we are using our silver passes to get in to the parks, we can't pre-schedule FPs. We are traveling with a large family group, so this means that they can all pre-schedule FPs, but we can't. I'm assuming there's no work-around here, but just checking in case the woman on the phone told me wrong.

thanks!

I don't know for sure. I would try a link your Magic Band to someones MDE account. That way if they make FP+ ressies your ticket can be included. I don't know if your pass can be linked to a MDE account or not. That is the only way I can think of to do it. Good luck!

CM ticket media cannot be linked to MDE nor MagicBands at this time.

What can be linked are CM Comp Tickets. The eTickets that are printed out at home. Once they are linked, you can schedule Fp+ in advance.

No work around at this time, maybe late this year is what I've been told. E-Tickets only can be linked (information on how to do it on the HUB in the complimentary admission module - HUB access required)

Thanks, folks. Ah yes, the HUB! DH and I have a joke that every time I ask him to check something (he's the CM), it's down for maintenance! Or we spend 20 minutes trying to find it.

I'll have to do an e-ticket count. I was hoping to save a few for our friends who will be visiting later this summer.

Either way, I'm glad to know at least what the options are (or aren't!).

I appreciate it.
