I am about to book a room reservation with a one day park ticket which I want to upgrade to FL resident PAP's upon arrival. I am assuming my one day ticket will be on the magic band? Will I have any issues with upgrading this? Can it be done at any guest services?
Thanks!

1- I am assuming my one day ticket will be on the magic band?

2- Will I have any issues with upgrading this?

3- Can it be done at any guest services?

1- The tickets will be accessed via your MagicBand.

Just to keep things as clear as possible-

There is no reservation info, or ticket info, or credit card info,
or FP+ info actually "on" a MagicBand.

The MagicBands just contain a unique serial number that is used
to access the information that is stored in your MyDisneyExperience computer file.

So, even if you were to lose a MagicBand, the info stays locked in your file.
Disney can just set up a new band (different serial number)
to access the info in your MDE file.
Disney can also issue ADDITIONAL MB's to a guest and each
additional band can be used for the same purposes as the first band.
So, yes, there can be multiple MB's per person, and each fo them can be used by that person.

The MagicBand works like the combination to a locked safe, or a key to a locked door.

Why does this distinction matter?
Because there is so much fear about losing bands and,
in turn, losing all of a guest's information thought to be on the band.

The MB, itself, is not the file of info or the container of the info.
The MB just unlocks the file of info, allowing it to be accessed when needed.




2- Nope.

3. Any Guest RELATIONS or ticket booth can do the upgrade.
 
thanks robo, and as far as math goes - for the upgrade I will still owe a ne day ticket and the first months payment - but really the first day payment since the one day tix will cover the ticket prce.
is there not anyway to buy these ap's ahead of time and get the room?

You can still reserve the room at an AP rate. Then confirm it once you upgrade when you get there.
 

now that I am thinking about it, I won;t be able to do FP in advance will i with either the one day ticket or prepurchasing an ap...I am so confused/
 
It is my understanding that you can prepurchase your AP and link it to your magic band, then you would be able to make FP+ at 30 days out or 60 days out if you have a room ressie. Someone correct me if I am wrong, as that is what we are planning to do.
Thanks
