Magic Bands

[MixedUpRichard]

We are travelling from the UK and we have a few questions about Magic Bands:

1. Will they be waiting at the Resort rather than being posted?

2. Will we be able to order the different colours? It would be good for all the family members to have their own band colour.

They will be waiting for you at check in and if you log in to My Disney Experience you can choose the colour and name on each band for each member of your party.

When you go to customise the MagicBands in MDE use your UK address and they will automatically be waiting at check in for you. Do not use the resort address as you risk them getting lost.

There are 7 colours you can choose from:

• Pink
• Red
• Green
• Blue
• Orange
• Yellow
• Grey

You can each have a different colour or the same completely your choice

Just in case you didn't realise, the names you choose when customising your bands are printed on the back of the band so no risk of getting them mixed up if you do all want the same colour.

do you then keep the bands or hand them in at checkout !!

You keep them, they remain active (unless you deactivate them on MDE) and you can use them on your next trip (although, if staying onsite, you will also get new ones on your next trip). I have bands in 5 different colours now and like to mix and match them during my trip.

how fabulous !! you can co ordinate them with your outfits !!! i so need a pink one

we try and get them to co-ordinate with the mugs so that we know who's mug is who's...unfortunately the mugs don't come in all the band colours! I think Disney is missing something there..

You can buy additional items to customise them too once you get them at any of the Disney stores there. Some of the designs are really good.

Somebody might have better info on this than me, but I thought that the bands are each only good for about 2 years, presumably because they have a watch battery in them.
