FP+ Magic Band Ticket Question!

[JoeyEmmaMomma]

We will be staying on property for our trip in March.
I will be waiting to buy our park tickets until January when Disney usually has a special ticket for Florida residents.

I'd like to take advantage of being able to book FP+ with Magic Bands 60 days prior to our trip. Will I be able to do this?
Will Disney issue us Magic Bands?

I was thinking, if I buy our tickets in early January I could get them registered more than 60 days before our trip.

We've been to Disney lots of times but not since FP+.
Thank you for the help!

60 days if you have an onsite reservation.

Since you are on property you are eligible for booking FP+ starting 60 days from your first day, assuming you have tickets at that point.

Hypothetically, if you don't have tickets until the day before, you cannot book FP+ until then (even though you are staying on property and are eligible to do so).

You should be issued MB (which is entirely separate from FP+ booking) since they act as a room key, etc.

Correct if you are booking Room only and you do not have admission associated with your MDE account, then you can't book FP+.

the Requirement for Fastpass+ at 60days out is on-site guest AND park admission both in the same MDE account.

The one way you can get around this is by a few days of park admission now from like UT, then when it comes time to go, you upgrade to the FL Resident pass (just like an AP.)

Ok, thank you.

If I have our tickets purchased before our 60 window, can I link them to our resort info and book our FPs 60 days out?

Yes. You will be able to book FP+ for the number of days on your ticket (5-day park ticket = 5 days of FP+). If you have an AP, you will be able to book for each day of your stay.
