Magic band activation?

Hi all, we received our MBs yesterday and I'm wondering where and when these get linked to our MDE acct. Thanks!

If they are for an upcoming resort stay, they are already linked to MDE.

If you purchased them separately, you need to go to the MagicBands & Cards page in MDE and click the 'Link' button. You would enter the band id number off the back of each MagicBand and assign them to the appropriate individual.

Thanks, it is for a resort stay package so I guess we're all set!

It will be shipped about 30 days before your trip and arive about 3 weeks before your trip ( note this is just an exstiment your time may vary )

I'm thinking that if they just RECEIVED their MagicBands, their 60-days-before-check-in date has long since passed.

Our trip is May 16 to 23. We received the MBs on day 27 before the trip and yes, Fastpasses were all booked at 60 days.

Can they be used for dinning plan before I check into my resort?

Yes, as long as you complete your online check-in prior to arrival. You'll select a pin code as part of the process.

Choose the earliest arrival time and everything will be activated at your specified time. You can head straight to a park or ADR without stopping by the resort.

Thank you, I have completed my online check in. So I am glad to hear I don't have to necessarily check in first.
