First Time on DDP and Magic Bands Question

[KonaKaiTom]

This is a really silly question, but since I've never been on the DDP and I'm going to be in February I can't figure out what is probably obvious.

I made a reservation and paid for a trip for 4 of us (family trip) with MYW and DDP. So, every day all 4 of us have 1 snack, 1 QS and 1 TS (I know the signature restaurants difference). But, here is my dumb question -- when we go to pay, how many magic bands do we scan? Are all the meals linked together and it doesn't matter who scans, do we all scan?

TIA,

Tom

If you are all on the same resort reservation, all you need is one band. Credits are pooled per room reservation, not per person.

Yes, if you are staying for 5 nights you would have 20 snacks, 20 QS meals and 20 TS meals. You can use them any way you want. You could use all QS one day and then all TS another, or any combination. Just tell your server what you will be using each time and show one MB. Enjoy.

dining credits are linked to each room not each individual person.
only one person in each room has to scan their magic band.
at TS a CM will come by near the end of your meal with the scanner and will just ask someone to hold their magic band to it.
at QS as long as one person orders for everyone or you make it clear that you are all on the same order only one person will have to hold their magic band to the scanner.
if say you are going up in "shifts" so that a table can be saved then obviously someone from each "shift" is gonna have to scan their magic band.

also you'll be asked to put in a PIN after you scan your band.
you'll create your PIN at check in.

Just wanted to add, you can create your PIN at on line check in. You don't have to do at the counter.

Thank you all VERY MUCH! I knew it was blatently obvious -- but I didn't know. I hoped it would be that way!

All I need now is 60 days to go by!
