Good morning all! 31 days to go until my Halloween trip to Disney! I am counting down the minutes until I can start making my FastPass+ selections tomorrow.
I have a couple of questions about MagicBands, for those who have the experience.
1. Are they worth it? I have had only one trip to Disney since this system was created and was at the parks for a day. I must admit, that having to dig out my ticket each time I wanted to use my FastPass was a bit of a pain. We will be there for 3 days this go round so I am thinking that purchasing one seems inevitable. We will only be using it for park entrance, and FastPasses however. I do not feel comfortable syncing up any payment information on it just because I am somewhat of a Paranoid Peter Pan.![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
2. If we do decide to purchase Magic Bands, should we purchase ours before hand from the Disney site or should we wait and pick them out at the park? I wasn't sure if they have unique options at each park that you cannot buy elsewhere that we should hold out for. We will be going to MNSSHP on Halloween Night and I do know that they had a limited number of bands available for purchase at the party, but wasn't sure how difficult it would be to get my paws on one.
Thanks in advance for your help!
