Well, it finally happened. Starting today, guests not staying at a Walt Disney World Resort hotel or in possession of an annual pass can make FastPass+ reservations up to 30 days in advance, and they can buy a MagicBand to boot. Disney resort guests get up to 60 days to make the very same FastPass+ reservations.
The MyDisneyExperience app is now equipped to make the reservations for all guests with park tickets, not just those using MagicBands while staying on Disney property.
If the plastic park ticket these guests are being issued isn’t good enough and they’re feeling left out, select Walt Disney World merchandise locations are now selling MagicBands in the seven original colors for $12.95 each. We expect some “vanity” or upscale character bands to join the merchandise fray in the not-too-distant future.
These buyable bands feature all of the capabilities of the resort guest’s bands except for one thing: they can not be linked to a credit card and used for charging.
This is all subject to change at any point as Disney has stated they are still in the testing phases for MyMagic+.
Are regular park guests allowed to use their Magicbands to make ADR in My Disney Experience?
Yes, but you could already do that regardless of MagicBands
And the non resort guests magicbands won’t be accepted on extra magical hours :)
On some of the hotels, yes they will :(
Are the wristbands able to be used for more than just one visit to Walt Disney World?
Yes
Thanks!
Can the military use the bands?
Yes as long as you link your tickets, etc. in your My Disney Experience account. It should work for your room key if you are staying on property.
