MDE, FastPass+ and multiple tickets

[LadyZolt]

Hi there! I am using My Disney Experience and have a Magic Band with one day left on it (it is a Military Salute one that will expire at the end of September), and I also have a base ticket (plastic card) that has 2-day non-hoppers on it. I am going to Disney World in September and would like to use My Disney Experience to make my dining reservations and my FastPass+ selections, but there does not seem to be any way to tell it which ticket I'd like it to be on. So, my question for you experts is: Are the things on MDE linked to me specifically and the tickets that I have entered into MDE so that, no matter which ticket I decide to use on a specific day, the FastPass+ experiences will be active? Or is there something I'm missing on the MDE site? Thanks in advance!

Just a clarification:
There are no tickets "on" a MagicBand.
If you have any "days left" on valid tickets that were formerly used with a MagicBand, those tickets are actually "on" your MDE account.

You can add an additional ticket (or tickets) to your MDE account and set up a "priority" as to which ticket will be used "first" the next time you enter a park.

For making FP+ reservations, you can do so for the total number of "days"
for which you have valid tickets listed in your MDE account.**
It does not matter in which order that you use the ticket "days."

At this time, I believe that it takes the assistance of WDW Guest Relations
to arrange (or rearrange) the "priority" of the tickets connected with your MDE account.


** You must also meet the resort eligibility rules for making advance F+ reservations.
Those rules may be changing as time goes by.

This info is so blasted complicated that I find it difficult to construct sentences that can begin
to explain it clearly.
Shame on Disney! SHAME!

Thanks for the reply, Robo! I thought you'd have some good info.

OK, so the 1-day left on my Military Salute ticket -- all I have is the Magic Band I used for that. (We got paper vouchers and activated them at Disney World directly onto the Magic Bands in January.) MDE does show that Military Salute "one day left," but am I correct in assuming that I can use that Magic Band as that ticket, or will I need to have a CM at some point move it to a plastic card?

Thanks again! We're staying at Shades of Green in September, so I am not sure how that will work for FastPass+, but I guess we'll find out.

1. am I correct in assuming that I can use that Magic Band as that ticket, or will I need to have a CM at some point move it to a plastic card? If you do need to put the ticket "on an RFID card," that can be done at any ticket booth or Guest Relations very easily.

Thanks again!

1. I don't know. It depends whether you need to be staying at a resort that offers MB at the time of your trip.

2. By Sept., nobody knows.
