If you are looking to pre-order a MagicBand for your upcoming Walt Disney World vacation, your favorite style may be out of stock.
Disney posted a statement saying current supply chain issues are affecting their pre-arrival stock of MagicBands. Read the full statement below:
“Due to ongoing, industry-wide supply chain challenges, MagicBands may have limited availability or be unavailable in some styles. Our teams are working to improve our selection over the coming weeks and recommend Guests continue to check back to see if their preferred style is available.
If you are traveling to Walt Disney World Resort soon, we encourage you to use the My Disney Experience mobile app to access a digital room key and the Disney MagicMobile service once you arrive. Disney MagicMobile service is available on eligible smartphones and is a convenient way to access MagicBand features. With Disney MagicMobile service, you first link entitlements to your Disney account and then create a mobile pass to access select theme park and Disney Resort hotel features, such as entering theme parks with valid admission and a theme park reservation, charging food and merchandise purchases to the payment card on file at your Disney Resort hotel room during your stay, connecting Disney PhotoPass images and more—similar to how you use a MagicBand. Disney MagicMobile is available for Guests in the United States.
For Disney Resort guests, you can use the My Disney Experience mobile app to access a digital room key feature. With the feature, you can unlock your hotel resort room door and common area doors using your eligible smartphone.”
Disney is encouraging guests to use the My Disney Experience mobile app as a temporary replacement while a lot of MagicBands are out of stock online.
If your favorite MagicBand style is unavailable online, keep an eye out in stores when you arrive at Walt Disney World. Plenty of other styles are also available to purchase throughout the resort.

I thought you needed a magic band to capture ride photos at Walt Disney World. Does MagicMobile capture ride photos in place of MagicBands?
How convenient that these are out of stock, yet they have plenty of full price magic bands they will sell you. Why not offer up some of those as a replacement. Oh yeah, but the current Disney mindset is not about making customers happy, its how much can we nickel and dime them to get the max revenue out of them.
