Magic Bands replace before rope drop at MK?

[DoBug]

So we're getting in late tonite (10:30) and were hoping to hit MK rope drop tomorrow. We have lost a magic band. Are there Magic bands for sale outside MK entrance?
We will have the paper tix to get in and could just get the magic band at a store inside MK later?

We don't have any Fastpasses in the morning so maybe we should concentrate on getting into MK and getting on some rides early before worrying about getting a new Magic Band?
I think the concierge at Swan opens at 7 and gift shop at 8 so that's another option but would get us to park later

We have extra magic bands that belong to others in our party. Could one be transferred?

what would you do?

TIA

1. We have lost a magic band.
2. Are there Magic bands for sale outside MK entrance?

1. Go to any Guest Relations (outside MK gates, included) with ID and "nicely" ask for a replacement MB.
2.Yes, but see #1 above.

If your staying at a Disney hotel the front desk can give you a new band but it will be grey. DS has lost his band before and we just went to the front desk of the Contemporary and asked. We had a dining reservation there (we were staying at the All Stars) and they had no problem giving us a new band for him. They just wanted to scan my band to confirm his info and make it easier to attach the new band to him.

Thank you . We are staying at the Swan so not sure that will work. We don't get magicbands included with reserv there

The Swan has an official Disney counter there. But it will be likely closed at that time of night. You can try first thing in the morning.

I'll give that a shot
thanks

As mentioned, my first stop would be the front desk, they have helped with magic band issues.
If that doesn't work, then Guest Services
Last choice, purchase a new magic band and link it to your account

Magic bands can't be transferred to another person once they're linked to a My Disney Experience account.

Guest Relations at MK might be able to give you a new magic band, as someone mentioned above. But worst case - they give you one of the physical ticket cards that is essentially another version of a magic band, just in a plastic card form. You can use this for your fastpasses until you get another magic band.

Just be sure to inactivate the lost magic band in the My Disney Experience account of the person it was linked to!

AFAIK, the resorts no longer "only" have grey-color MBs.

That’s cool for them to offer more colors now.
