Disney MagicBand 101: Everything You Need to Know Before Your Vacation

by Gwen Leron

This past summer during our Walt Disney World Resort vacation, we were introduced to the wonderful world of MagicBands. We’ve been to Disney several times, but this last visit was the first time MagicBands were available to us. Having used the old “key to the world” cards in the past, I have to say my preference …
