we always stay on site - friends staying off site and asking me questions- I think you only get a free magic band when you stay on site right? They have military tickets already- can they still get fast passes assigned to those tickets - are they swiped at the ride entrance?? Do they have to make a my Disney experience profile to get fast passes at 30 days? That is the only way right? Make a profile - add the people and their ticket numbers ? Then swipe their plastic tickets to enter park and execute he fast passes?

Magic bands are included with any onsite stay, otherwise they can be purchased if desired. For ticketing and FP purposes, RFID tickets can do everything MBs do.

Offsite guests can get FPs at 30 days. You may find the FP FAQ helpful.

You are completely correct. You only get free magic bands when staying on property. You can still buy them, but they are not as useful since you can’t use them to open your room or make charges; you can only use them to enter the park, for FP and for photos if getting the Memory Maker.

You would use your tickets to enter the park and to make FP reservations linked to MDE. They can book 30 days out, but have to book each day separately.
