Is there another reason for Magic Bands?

Where are they staying? If they are staying at the resort with you, they need to be on the reservation. The part nobody has mentioned is that magic bands also serve as a room key.

Well the issue I have with that is they are staying 2 nights......we are staying 8. I called and asked and they said to put them on the room they would have to have the whole package so I said never mind.......I know it's breaking a rule but I'm not about to pay for them for 8 nights with dining and tickets when they are only staying 2.

Provided you aren't exceeding the room occupancy limits you can add them to your room after you have checked in and your park tickets and dining credits have been "distributed". If they are arriving the day after just return to the front desk and add them to your reservation as room only guests.

I do this often as my sil lives in FL and often comes over to see us for a day or two during our trips. Most recently I added my niece and nephew last minute in the middle of a BWV trip and they were issued grey magic bands.
