How do i get a magic band travelling from UK

Afternoon

I will be arriving soon and on previous visits i always managed to pre-order my magic band which i always collected on arrival when checking in.
However i cant seem to be able to do that this time.

How do i get one now? Would ideally want to have it ready for me at check-in.

Thank you

You order via a VPN. They’re then there for you when you check in. There will be a limited selection, however.

I can't help with the VPN stuff but if you have old magic bands you can reuse them as room keys and to get into the parks. The battery might be too old for ride videos and pictures but should work for the basic things.

If you want to buy new ones you can buy them once you get there. There isn't a very big selection available online just now as a new version of magic band is due for release soon

The easiest way is to buy one when you arrive - they are available everywhere and lots of designs too.

You can purchase them at the hotel shop before check-in too.

Might sell them at the airport Disney shop as well.

Double boxed toys have a range in stock to order here in the UK. You will pay more though. I used a VPN and ordered on the site and they were there when we arrived. I used TunnelBear which had enough free MB for me to order the bands. Downloaded it onto my iPad easily. I’m not tech savvy at all but it was quite simple.

Before you spend too long sorting a VPN I thought I’d show you what is currently available for pre-order so you can decide if it’s worth bothering. Whilst it can change it’s been this selection for a couple of weeks now

Or you can pick up a ‘key to the world’ card for free at checkin. That’s what we are going to do. 👍
