Magic band question

[maxiesmom]

My family is staying at the Swan next month. I know we don't get magic bands along with the room, but is there any reason to bring along magic bands from a previous trip? Can we get them so our park passes and fast passes are on them?

Yes, bring your MagicBands. If they are still active in MDE (which they should be, unless you deactivated them), they will work just fine for your tickets, FP, and photopass.

Nothing at all is "on" or directly linked to a MagicBand. They access the current information in your MDE.

The only potential issue is if they are more than 3-4 years old, the long range battery might not work. That is only needed for functions like ride photos and effects. They will work for scanning at the touchpoints indefinitely.

1. If you just LIKE to use MBs at the parks.
2. If your current trip items (tickets & FPs) show up in your MDE account, any MBs that you have will work just fine.
