News Round Up 2020

[dina444444]

This is for a 2020 trip I have booked which they are still free. 2021 is when they are supposed to be no longer available.

I’m wondering they will still be offered to APs.

They just added a bunch of new Premium Magic Bands that you can order for your resort stay and annual pass. Some exclusives too including a new runDisney band, First Visit band, 2020 Family Vacation band, among others. There's now 37 different options to choose from.

So many great options!! I’m tempted to order but won’t since our trip may not happen and we have to pick up our bands at the resort. I don’t want them sitting around Pop for a while and neither would they.

You haven’t had to take things out of your pockets at Disney now for about a year and a half. Still confuses me when I get up to the metal detector and don’t have to fish all of my wife’s and my stuff out of my cargo shorts!

I was thinking in September they had me hold everything out in front of me, I definitely don't remember leaving everything in my pockets.

Didn't the upgrades used to be $10? Isn't $20 about the cost in the parks?

It depends on the band. In the parks it's $15 for standard colors, $25 for open editions, $30 for limited releases, I think the D-Tech bands are $30, $34 for boxed releases and I'm pretty sure they go up from there.

They have had different prices ones on there. Idea is you get the value of a plain one ($14.95) towards the price of an "upgrade" - so the ones listed for $20 would be $34.95 in the park

At least in the past that is what they did - who knows going forward though

We were able to order our solid color bands free for our July 2021 trip in Wednesday. Wonder if you can still get in on the free pricing until the calendar rolls over into 2021?

The free ones show up for my 2021 trip as well. Maybe they will show until the stock runs out?

Possibly. That is why we went ahead and got our order in.

I still find it super annoying that they only show you one side of the band (which is not the side facing you when you wear it, either). It's even tougher with all of the "Pre-Arrival Exclusives" since you can't go find them on ShopDisney to see them better. We don't really need any more bands right now, but I'm slightly intrigued by a couple fo these, I just don't know that I'd spend $20 on one to find out I hate the other side of it (and there are a few bands in the past that I liked one side but thought the other side was terrible).

(which is not the side facing you when you wear it, either).

Crazy old me always put them on in either direction! I saw both sides every trip.

You truly are a pirate with a rebellious streak like that!

I really like the aqua gold and silver Mickey rings one.

Annnnd, I just bought a magic band that I didn't really need for my April trip!
