New feature for Resort Guests

[MichaelH]

I read on a news webpage about a new feature Disney was rolling out. I understood that it was for resort guest only right now. Anyway it allows you to schedule ride times, reserve a spot for parade viewing and some other things.

Is there anyone on the boards that know about it? If so, have you used it and how does one get access to it to use it? Do you get it by default if you are a resort guest?

Thanks,
Michael

Ok after googling I found what it is called. It is called MyMagic+. I read an article about it on FoxNews.com now I can't find it. It sounds like it is going to be out for resort guests.

Has anyone used this? Would like to use this when we go in March.

Thanks,
Michael

I found the link where I read about it originally:

Looks like they are phasing it in at WDW for resort guests only. Looks like you do not have to use it if you don't want. I would like to here from anyone that has used it.

there has been several thread on this
no one really knows what yet
you pick 3 things from parades or fastpasses to use - I think it is crazy to limit it to that many in a day - most of us here can do alot more than that in a day.
I can get fastpass at 9,11,1,3,5,7 oclock if not quicker on the first ones of the day

I like the idea of the bands so I don't have to keep up with cards but I see my sons loosing theirs quickly (most likely I won't let them wear them at all -very austic boys doesn't take long for CMs to know something isn't right with them)

Thanks for the info. I am hoping that we can try this in March. I know that my DD(9) was disappointed, not to mention the wife and myself, because when we were there in 2011 we did not get to do Sorin. My DS(12) did not really care. I am wanting to try this for the big rides. Sometimes the fastpass return is after we have plans for other things be have booked. Hopefully with being able to schedule a return it will make it a lot better. I worry about my kids loosing theirs also.
