Guests utilizing FastPass+Since the opening of Disneyland® Park back in 1955, there has been a constant focus by Walt Disney Parks and Resorts to use innovation and creativity to improve their guest’s visit. Because of this, Disney Parks continues to deliver their guests legendary customer service and creates countless unforgettable memories each and every day of the year.

Walt Disney World® Resort has announced a new initiative that not only reinforces the destination’s constant goal of improvement, but will change “how” you experience Disney Parks. MyMagic+ will use today’s technology to allow you to make the most of your future Walt Disney World® Resort vacations. While MyMagic+ has several different components, the two most notable pieces of it are Disney Fastpass+® Service and the MagicBand.

Disney Fastpass+® Service will allow you to choose certain Fastpass+® attractions and entertainment you would like to experience and secure a time to do so before you leave for your trip. Think of it as an “enhanced” Fastpass® – same concept and service as what is used today but done in advance instead of while you are at the park. Some of the entertainment options that may be included in the Fastpass+® Service include special firework and parade viewing areas, shows, and Disney Character Greetings.

Worn on your wrist, the MagicBand gives you access to your vacation package components and your Fastpass+® selections. Replacing the current Key to the World card, the MagicBand will unlock your Walt Disney World® Resort hotel room door, allow you to charge food and merchandise to your account, and will be your ticket to enter the Walt Disney World® Resort Theme Parks and Water Parks. The MagicBand also allows the Fastpass+® Service to be paperless!

Portions of MyMagic+ have been in testing over the past several months and will begin to roll out slowly over the next couple months. Like any new project of this size, it will continue to evolve over time based on guest and cast feedback.

Here’s the best part – there is no additional charge for MyMagic+ to guests!

Our Magic Makers® will soon receive training from Disney Parks about MyMagic+ and will be able to provide you more details about these enhancements before your upcoming trip. We are excited about these new changes and how they will compliment our already existing fee-free planning services!
