Limit on free Magicbands 2020?

[Wendysofftoneverland]

I have a room only reservation for November and another for December. Will we get only 1 set of Magicbands? I don't see a link to select Magicbands for the December trip. My son changes his mind about his favorite color, and with complimentary ones being discontinued next year, I was hoping we would get different ones each stay.

you should get one per stay.

Make sure to click the "My MagicBand and Cards" under My Disney Experiance on the website - that should take you to a page with all of your eligible MagicBand orders.

I noticed that too, they got sneaky about it. You have to follow @GADisneyDad14’s method up top instead of having them all listed in My Plans.

A million other things Disney IT *could* do- and they dedicated man hours to hiding more than one resort’s worth of Magic Bands on the Planning page

Is there anything special we need to do to them to get them up and running when we get there?

Assuming you’re talking about MagicBands ordered with a resort stay, no, nothing to do - they come ready go.

If you want to use it to charge things to your room you do need to set up a PIN code during online check in, assuming you haven’t already done that on a past trip.

Thanks. Yeah I’ve never used them before so I just wondered if there was any programming but it sounds like no. So that’s good. Throw it on the wrist. And call it good.

They’re getting rid of complimentary magic bands when you stay on property?

Yes, for stays starting in 2021.

Yes, for stays starting in 2021.

That’s sad. So you’re given an option to buy one or just decline? I guess it’s good I have so many from past trips
