So here is my dilemma. On my Disney Experience it is showing two sets of tickets. An old set of 10 day Non-Exp PH with fun options that still have some days left and a new set of 5 day base tickets I purchased specifically for an up coming trip. How do I know which tickets are on the magic bands? I linked the 5 day tickets for this trip and this reservation. The 10 days were purchased, linked on MDE and started being used prior to Magic bands, fastpass+ and even RFID (which caused all sorts of problems last year).
So I guess my questions are:
1- Am I making a bigger deal of this than I need to?
2- If it is an issue who do I contact (MDE,Magicbands and Fastpass+ , Existing tickets or reservations)?
3-Should I just wait till I get down there and hope for the best with Concierge?
TIA
 
Tickets are linked to a person from which your MagicBand pulls information. Any tickets linked to you are accessible by any media associated to you (that is active).

When you touch any of your MB at the entry, it phones home to find out who the band belongs to then finds out what tickets belong to that person. In that regard, tickets are not linked to bands, they are linked to people, and yes, it is possible to "Stack" multiple tickets on a person.

The entry point is programmed to take the first ticket eligible for entry, if you want to only use the base ticket the whole trip, then you will need to visit GR on your first entry to have that prioritized as #1. There is no way to know the order from our perspective - only GR has access to see that and they can re prioritize for you if you need it. It also needs to be done in person at Guest Relations. It does not matter for the purpose of booking FP+, so you can relax until you arrive at your first park(or DTD)
 
Make sure you go to GR before you enter a park to have your tickets prioritized.
 

Thanks! So if I deactivate one through MDE as if lost only one will show as active?

If you have only two pieces of RFID media (bands or cards) they should work interchangeably, if they are both active. So to answer your question...Yes, if you deactivate one as lost, then that particular piece of media will not work for Room/Dining/Charging/Park Entry/FP+.
