Room only vs. MYW

[AppleSister1]

Hi! We've been tons of times, but June is our first trip with MDE and Magic Bands.

My sis and I made our ressies through the website. Then our mom decided to come as well. Her bff is a travel agent, so she made her ressies through her. She just joined us on MDE, but I'm seeing her ressie is room only and then a separate ticket. We (my sis and I) got MYW packages and have since ordered Magic Bands.

My question: with room only, will my mom get a magic band? Be able to book FP+ with us? I know offsite guests and ap'ers are having issues. My mom is 70+….want to make sure we don't have last minute glitches that freak her out.

My question:

1- with room only, will my mom get a magic band?

2- Be able to book FP+ with us?

1- Yes.
2- She will, IF she orders her tickets now and links them
to MyDisneyExperience.

Robo, as always, you rock.

She's already ordered the tickets and we just linked her in on MDE with us. So all should be well.

Next question: I'm assuming my sister or I can make FP+ ressies for all our friends/family when the time comes, right? So she (or I can) can make them all at once for all of us at the same times provided we've linked with each other? Want to avoid the rush of both of us trying to book at 60 days out and having to text each other at 6am to see if we can get the same times. I'm assuming this system is in place so we can avoid that, but…assuming makes us all look like…you know.

Yes. One of you can be set up to be the one who makes the reservations
for all of you.

Thanks! I assumed this was the case….we aren't in the window yet, so hard to see how this will work on MDE. I am clapping over here because I believe in fairies…but we shall see how this actually plays out.
