Disney’s Magic Band FAQ Link

Is there anywhere we can get the old style MBs (without Plus)? It's odd because we never received new MBs when we renewed our APs year after year, although other people told us that they were sent new MBs each year they renewed.

Disney no longer sells any of the none PLUS MagicBands. You can load a Disney MagicMobile Pass on to your smartphone and use your smartphone to enter the parks and redeem LL passes (if you purchase them).

Disney didn't automatically send new MagicBands when you renewed your AP. You had to order them through MDE after you renewed.

Thank you! I discovered last night that I could do the mobile thing and use my Apple watch, so I’ve set it up and will give it a go today. If it works, that will be much easier than having to remember our magic bands all the time.

I've use both my iPhone and Apple Watch to enter the WDW theme parks without issue.

I just completed a trip using my Apple Watch, and can't recommend it enough. It has all the functionality of a Magic Band+ (minus the lighting up at certain situations) and the Apple Watch serves purposes in everyday life away from Disney. Yes, the Apple Watch is more expensive, but if you already own one, it costs $0 to use at Disney.

How do you use your apple watch instead of a magic band? We have been searching for our old magic bands all over the place. Also how new does the watch have to be? Thanks!
