Disney announced that the popular MagicBand+ technology used at Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort will start to make its way to Disney Cruise Line, beginning with a preview opportunity on select Disney Wish sailings before it officially debuts. At Disney Cruise Line, we are calling it DisneyBand+.
UPDATE There will be a charge for these bands. Solid bands will be $34.99, and design bands $44.99. There is a $10 discount for pre-purchase vs onboard; I am unsure if the prices above include the discount. Pre-purchases must be placed between 45 and 11 days before the sailing.
Order before you embark to save $10 off the onboard price of each band—and harness the power of wearable technology as you make your way aboard the ship.
Pre-purchases are only available for US addresses. You can use your MagicBand+ from Walt Disney World Resort or the Disneyland Resort to unlock the power of DisneyBand+. And your DisneyBand+ for Disney cruises can be used at Walt Disney World Resort and the Disneyland Resort. International Guests may purchase at a merchandise shop on board.
While DisneyBand+ is not yet available for purchase, Guests on select Disney Wish sailings in Summer 2023 will be able to order a DisneyBand+ by visiting My Reservations between 11 and 45 days of their sail date, if their reservation is paid in full (while supplies last). Shipping is available to US addresses only (excluding PO Boxes, APO, FPO, DPO, or any cruise ports). There will also be a limited selection of bands available for purchase on board (while supplies last).
With DisneyBand+, you’ll be able to unlock the hands-free conveniences of wearable technology on the high seas for the first time on a Disney cruise. With three Disney Cruise Line-exclusive designs to choose from, DisneyBand+ will be the perfect accessory for your Disney cruise vacation. Plus, it is rechargeable — making it the perfect accessory for your future Disney vacation experiences,
DisneyBand+ will make unlocking your stateroom door, and charging a sweet treat or a souvenir to your payment card on your stateroom folio as easy as tapping your wrist. No matter where your vacation takes you, you can be assured that your DisneyBand+ is adventure-proof. Wear it while you cool off at the pool, go snorkelling at Disney Castaway Cay or take a thrilling plunge on AquaMouse!
Even the littlest explorers can experience the magic of DisneyBand+. Children age 3 and up can also use their bands in lieu of the Oceaneer Club Band to access kids’ clubs, including Disney’s Oceaneer Club while onboard and Scuttle’s Cove at Castaway Cay.
Whether you’re meeting a favourite Disney character or striking a pose in front of the iconic Disney Cruise Line red funnel, onboard photographers around the ship are ready to capture your favourite vacation memories. And with one simple tap, you can easily link your photos to your stateroom, making it easy to view and purchase photos during your cruise..
