Sharing MDE accounts

[GaryDis]

So last night, we logged into my MDE account, put it up on the projector, and started flagging attractions, tours, and restaurants as wish list items. But now I'm wondering: Should we just continue to use one account? Or are there advantages for DH to create his own, and have them shared? It's just the two of us, with the reservation already linked to my account, but no tickets yet.

We've shared individual family accounts; once they're linked, it's like having one big account anyway.

But if you're not going to be traveling by yourself, why not both be in the same account?

DH and I both have our own MDE accounts. I set it up in the early days of MDE, before I knew exactly what was the best way to do it. He never goes into his account, so I have always controlled everything, including his stuff. If I had it to do again, I would just have one account and not create one for him. But it is too late now, since all of his MagicBands are in his account and he would lose access to them if he stopped using it.

We all have our individual accounts. I find it a lot easier for management reasons and if technical issues arrive everything's separate and not linked all together

I have me, my son, my mother, my ex AND my ex in-laws on mine. I don't want anyone else to be able to mess with any plans so frankly, most of them don't even know it's an option to have their own account!!

Most technical issues with MDE come from multiple and linked accounts. DH is forbidden from having one.
