Choosing my magic bands?

[Tink1987]

Hi all,

We arrive at Saratoga Springs on the 27/09 and I have read of other people choosing their magic band colours etc before this? Can we do this from the UK as I know they ship them to you in the US. If so, how and when can I do it?

Thanks all - hope you are all having a nice weekend

You can do it now linking up your reservation on mydisneyexperience.com. Since Disney doesn't ship overseas, we get the magic bands at check in (so, sadly, no quick check in for us).
My TA does ship overseas through so she arranged for me to get luggage tags for ME. We are flying to NYC first and then domestic to MCO so we get to use the service.

Hi, thanks for the help but I did look for it all I've on there and can't see where on earth I would do it on the website or app - perhaps it's a glitch in mine? If it is, I don't mind as it the only problem we have faced with it - we have been very lucky

I logged into My Disney Experience, clicked on Magicbands and it let me choose colours, add names then ship to hotel, I clicked on ready to ship and sent to our htel, followed online tracking and they were delivered to hotel within 3 days of ordering. There waiting for us to arrive next Thursday

If you have a resort reservation they will ship automatically - Wayne has ordered AP magic bands and you choose when they ship.

On the website you need to log in to you MDE account and then choose 'Magicbands and cards'

Once that page loads you should have a section for new magic band orders - it will show your resort reservation under it.

Click on it and it will need a shipping address - use your UK address and they will automatically ship to the resort at the correct time (do not use the SSR address as they could get lost). Only the website seems to accept UK addresses at the moment.

Thanks all - the option for ours is definitely not there so looks like we have our first glitch! Will call them closer to the time.

Thanks again

Yeah I can do so bit unsure what is happening. All of the great advice I have been given above is what I have read before which what made me think I am missing something which is why I asked
