What will my trip look like?

[Mukta]

It has been a very long time since I didn't know what to expect from a trip to WDW.

3 adults all with premier passes. Do we HAVE to get the RFID chip on our pass when we arrive? Can we do that at the International Gateway?

Are people having trouble entering the park with premier passes with the chip?

Can we decline the magic band if a test is offered to us?

Any help is appreciated.

I will give you my best answer others can help out
1. I beleive you do not have to get the RFID pass unless your current one has expired. There are still traditional turnstiles.
2. You can upgrade at any guest relations booth.
3. Yes mine has not worked or did not recognize my biometric ID. Last visit this occurred was on June 16. I visited on 7/5-7/7 and no issues.
4. Yes you do not have to take the band you may have a RFID card in it's place. Im sure they would not force you to participate if you do not wish.

I wanted to ask a follow up question.

If we get the RFID chip on our Premier passes, we just tap them to enter the park. No more turnstile, right? Is this true at all 4 parks now?
