My Disney Experience, Magic Bands and ADR?
What are they and how can we help you with it?
If you didn't read our 1st planning steps to Walt Disney World Vacation Planning, don't worry, you can go back to our other post and read that.
Okay, so you have booked your Walt Disney World Resorts Vacation and you got your welcome information. What is next!
If you haven't created your own account on mydisneyexperience.com, then please and go there to register with your confirmation that we have sent you. This will help you maintain and start putting items on your wish list. You can also download the app from your app store for your cell phone and use it while you are traveling. It will list your reservations, your Walt Disney World Resort you are staying at, your dining reservations, events, tours, and so much more!
After you register, please register for everyone in your party for a Magic Band. Magic Bands come in different colors, and you can also put your name on them, which are engraved on the inside of the band. You can also once you get them. Personalize them like we are celebrating our 25th Wedding Anniversary, and I ordered a special design to put over them, when I receive our. The bands should arrive at least 40 days prior to your travel. You must make sure you have paid off your trip first. See photos below.
The place where we got the personalized covering for our 25th Wedding Anniversary to put on our bands, came from www.magicyourband.com but when you book with Echevarria Travel. You get to pick your own design and get that free as a thank you for using us to book your trip.

Okay, so designed your magic band. What does it do? It is a Disney Magical Band (you can tell the kids or grown ups who are Disney Fanatics like us) with special powers. It first helps you when you check in at the first desk at your resort. Then it magically opens the door to your resort. It also with the swipe or a touch or a Tinker Bell touch with a wand, gets your into all of the parks and on the Fastpass rides. It also has your credit card information, so if you are wanting to purchase that special item at any of the parks, resorts and Disney Springs, you have it. It also has your dining reservations on it. So much more it does. It will not work anywhere else but at Walt Disney World! They are get to have it as a souvenir as well.
Now this is where we come in to help you. When you book your vacation whether it is a Walt Disney World Resort or any other vacation. We can customize it for you. Since you need to make your ADRs. Okay wait you are saying, what are ADRs already. ADR is Advanced Dining Reservations - These need to be arranged 180 days prior to arrival. Wait, you are saying that is 6 months prior to you even stepping foot there. Yes, that is right. Because many of the dining options are so popular you need to make that reservations. One of the hardest dining reservations is at the Cinderella's Castle at the Magic Kingdom. That is right the Cinderella's Castle has a restaurant. I am trying to get us dinner there for our Anniversary and it is sold out. So we made a reservation for the Spirit of Aloha at the Walt Disney World's Polynesian Resort. We love eating here as well, but we had to make a reservation. Any character dining, a signature restaurant (EPCOT Dining) especially during the holidays, and when they have the free dining options, it is crazy. You do not have to do this for everything but mostly for the special options. These dining options are including when you purchase along with your resort, you can add the many different dining plans to your vacation. I have said, some many times, Disney Planning is like a Chinese Menu, you can pick and choose from Column A, B, or C. This is also when a Disney Specialist comes into play.
What Nelson and I can do for you is. We can speak with you way ahead of time, after you look through all the amazing things you can do, is set your reservations up for you. Because you need to get up at 6:00 AM the 180th day prior to your trip, and make your reservations so you can get them. I get up early, I can do this for you. We can also make your fastpass rides and events for you, etc.
This is an extra service and fee, but it all depends on how many people in your party. This may take us hours to do and to get on the phone with Disney themselves to make sure you are happy.
I have posted a few pictures below with my daughter, Dina, when we went in 2011 for the 40th Anniversary of Walt Disney World after Thanksgiving, it was our first Mother-Daughter Vacation.
