Linking Magic Bands

[DoulaMel]

We each have two active magic bands and an upcoming trip. Our tickets are in MDE, are they automatically linked to one (or the other) of the magic bands or do we have to link them?

You can use both bands interchangeably.

Nothing is “on” or linked directly to any band. The band just accesses the current info in MDE. Like a key to the door.

So how do I link the two together?

You don't have to link the bands together.

Thanks! But do I have to link ticket numbers to the bands?

The link is between park tickets and your MDE account. Depending on how you purchased your tickets, you may need to do this manually or they may already be linked. MBs just access anything on your MDE account.

Nothing is linked to the band. If you're tickets are showing in your MDE account, then your active bands will have access to those tickets.

Thank you! That is what I needed to know.

Also, do you know - if we are staying at a partner hotel, can we charge things to credit card attached to account with our band or do I have to carry our CC with us?

No, only Disney resort guests can charge purchases with a MagicBand.

I'm so glad that @disneygirlsng explained it so much better than I did...

Just kidding, hope you have a great trip!
