for what it’s worth, you have the option of only ordering one ahead of time. You can decline your husbands band.
This question gets asked often as not everyone wants a MB+. I know I’m waiting for Disney to make improvements before purchasing.Hi all! I am a big fan of MagicBands but not a huge fan of the plus. I don’t need another thing to remember to charge. We have the ability to buy MagicBands at a discount since we are staying on property, but I’m not loving the bands I see and since we just went last year I don’t NEED to buy my husband a new one (he got a 2 last year, I got a plus) so it wouldn’t really be a great savings since I would be buying two and only needing one.
The point to all this is - are there more Magicband 2 designs in the parks? Would it be unreasonable for me to assume I could go to Disney Springs or our first park and get a Magicband 2 there (obviously would bring my Plus so I could have something until I get the new one). Or are the pickings in person as slim as online because of the Plus?
Thank you!This question gets asked often as not everyone wants a MB+. I know I’m waiting for Disney to make improvements before purchasing.
Unfortunately Disney has stopped making the MB2 so there are less and less available. You may find some in the parks or at Disney Springs but each day there are less. Some guests have found them and others have not. You may wish to go to a store at Disney once you arrive and ask if they can look up stock on property. I’ve done this for other items then gone to the location that had the item I wanted.
Call (407) 939-4357. Its support for My Disney Experience, MagicBand and MagicBand+. Tell them what you want to do, and have email addresses for each family member that you wish to use for their accounts. They will split the person off from your account onto their own under the email address you provide. It will migrate all of their Magicbands, cards, tickets, reservations, etc. with them to the new account. It should take about 15-20 minutes per person you want to split off.I've been managing our MDE for years and now that sharing the account login has become a hassle with the updated security and other measures in place, I want to have my wife and two sons create their own accounts. My question here is, if they create their own accounts will their magic bands transfer to those accounts somehow? I don't see any info about this anywhere and I don't want them to lose access to all their old magic bands since we like to take some of them on our trips and reuse them for old times sake.
There is a decent selection of plus at the parks. I’m going to try to head to Epcot tonight to try that pickle shake. If I get there, I’ll take photos of what’s available at one of the stores.Hi all!

I just ordered mine Saturday. Underneath that part there was a button that said "Complete" purchase or something like that.Ok, so we want to buy a MP+ for our son only and not us. We selected one for him, but can't seem to figure out how to pay for that band. Any suggestions?View attachment 781893
Can’t telll…are those regulars MB2? That seems to be what people are having trouble finding.At Epcot
There are very few mb2. Most are plus.Can’t telll…are those regulars MB2? That seems to be what people are having trouble finding.
There should be a spot to mark that you are refusing the other two people.Ok, so we want to buy a MP+ for our son only and not us. We selected one for him, but can't seem to figure out how to pay for that band. Any suggestions?View attachment 781893
Thanks. That’s what I thought too but wanted to know for sure as this question is being asked a couple of times a week. Appreciate you updating with what you’re actually seeing (or, not seeing) when it comes to MB2.There are very few mb2. Most are plus.
Looks like in the AK and EP pictures you posted they are all MB+ with the only MB2 being the purple in the bottom right corner. Is that correct?There are very few mb2. Most are plus.
I did not take the time to look at the magic bands. I took the photos and moved along because I didn’t want to hold up my family.Looks like in the AK and EP pictures you posted they are all MB+ with the only MB2 being the purple in the bottom right corner. Is that correct?
Yes, each time you renew your pass the option for a new mb shows up in MDE.We are DVC members and Annual Passholders. I have been looking at the Magic Band + selection on My Disney Experience for our upcoming trip in September. Do they ever offer the DVC or Passholder bands on MDE?
If you mean bands with "Passholder" or "DVC" printed/marked on them... for example:We are DVC members and Annual Passholders. I have been looking at the Magic Band + selection on My Disney Experience for our upcoming trip in September. Do they ever offer the DVC or Passholder bands on MDE?
Do you/they plan on doing the Fab50 Quest (all parks), or Batuu Bounty Hunter (DHS only)?I have a question about pairing magic bands. I received 5 magic bands and was able to set them up and assign them to people. I paired my MB+ to my phone. Do the other members of my party need to install the disney app to pair their bands? Do I pair all 5 to my phone? If they all need the app, can they use my login or do they need their own? If they make their own how do I make sure they have our accounts connected correctly?
Thanks!
