Park Entry with Kids

[shelbel95]

What is the process now when entering a park with kids if no one has a magic band or admission card (and now finger prints are no longer being used)? Heading down in June with myself, my husband, and 2 kids (10 and 8).

Does one adult just show tickets on their phone for whole family?
Or does each adult have to show their own ticket on phone and one of them shows for the kids?

I realize there are options for an admission card (we don't want those) or to link up to Apple Watches, but only my husband and I have Apple Watches. Just trying to think through logistics. My kids kind of want the magic bands because that's what they've had in the past, but I'm not crazy about paying for something that they will use ONLY to enter the parks and maybe unlock the resort room from time to time. We have magic bands from prior visits, but they are all 3 or more years old and I'm not sure they'd still work.

As long as the MagicBands are still linked to your MDE app they will still work for admission and opening the room door. What they may not work for is 'on ride' pictures.

AS I understand it, and I could be wrong, you need to show each ticket on A phone. This means you could show the kids tickets on your phone. TIme consuming and slows down the line. I'd just get get admission cards,
