We used magic bands on both trips. It made rides, photopass, access to ur hotel room on resort, shopping, dining just so much easier.
Pros:
Simple to attach ur information to each band, u can make sure everyone in ur party is attached to memory maker, resort room, dining plan and even the credit card infoCons:
Needs to be a better way for smaller kids to have a band (just cause I know our toddler wanted to wear her band!) That wont come off. Some kind of way to lock it on to smaller children where it isnt too tight but wont come off.Reviewed by Ashull Review Date: 04/25/2019

Genious invention!
Pros:
Ease of getting onto Magical Express, into your room, into the parks, using photopass, paying for meals with or without the dining plan.Cons:
Maybe a little hard to keep it on little ones.Reviewed by San Review Date: 04/24/2019

Magic bands and small children
Pros:
Hopefully Disney will come up with a solution for this because it is a waste of everyone's time.Cons:
I come to Disney world once a month with a different subset of Grandchildren. All the smaller children have a problem every time with the fingerprint scanner. I cannot put my fingerprint on their band, since their parents bring them also. I wish there was a better way to do this with the small children.Reviewed by KimH134 Review Date: 04/21/2019

convenience on your wrist
Pros:
Not having to worry about taking a bunch of money into the parks. Convenient to have everything tied to band.Cons:
You can spend to much if you are not careful. Also I had a wrist band that didn't want to stay closed, so I lost it temporarily. Had to get a pinable fob for it to go it. (Nobody else in my family had this problem.)Reviewed by MassMike Review Date: 04/18/2019

Up until this last trip, I would have rated the MagicBand much higher. For me, it worked about 99% on the first try when entering the parks. Unfortunately for my husband, it worked once on the first try when entering the parks. We spent 9 days having his band reset, his picture taken, changing the finger he used, and cast members telling him he was pressing to firmly, not firmly enough, move his finger back a little, move his finger forward a little, etc. It was totally frustrating and a little comical by day 9.
Pros:
Great for opening resort doors, paying for food and merchandise.Cons:
When it doesn't work and there is no solution to fix the issue.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 10/01/2018
