I love the Magic Bands ,I don’t have a IPhone so the Magic Bands are better for those that don’t want to drag out there phones all the time. I don’t buy lighting lanes. I will wait for a ride. I will not pay extra for a ride when I already payed a lot of money to get into Disney in the first place.
I love my Magic Band. If I should step out of my room I need not worry about being locked out if I don’t grab my phone. If for no other reason this alone is why I still use one.
I would love to be able to put the phone away and just relax and enjoy the day at Disney. People walking around staring at it is annoying. Bad enough they are relied on for everything else in life, give us a day without. The magic bands work great and you can enjoy the visit instead of staring at a box all day.
I love the fun magical experience of using the magic band. I like putting my phone away while in the parks. I only pull it out to take pictures or check wait times occasionally. I will be sad when they stop the use of them 😔
I LOVE THE MAGIC BANDS. When I go to the pool at a Disney resort I do not always bring my phone. You can go swimming with the Magic band and do everything you need to at the pool and at the park. Also I sometimes go to the parks with friends that DO NOT HAVE SMART PHONES. My sister-in-law only has a land line NO SMARTPHONE, INTERNET or E-Mail (she is in 80 years of age, and does not want to learn that technology at her age), but she is still active and loves to travel. What would she do if no Magic band and she came to Disney with me?
I am all in for new innovative ways but having to use my phone for one more thing while in Disney is definitely not an improvement. Magic Bands are so convenient to wear and stops the constant holding or retrieving of phones. Also battery life will be a major issue if you stay in the parks all day. I hope Disney rethinks this one.
I agree with everyone, some people can’t afford to have an I phone, what do they do?
Ridiculous to do away with the magic bands, just let those who want to use their phone use it & when battery dies I’d like to know what Disney plans to do to let people in & ride .
Like everyone else, I like the convenience and security of the Magic Band. If Disney is truly going to phase them out, it is time for them to realize that there is another world known as Android.
I am not happy about this at all. I use my Disney time as phone free. I do not want to have to take out my phone over and over again. I do not want my kids to need a smart phone. Now I also have to worry about them dropping and breaking phones. This is a bad idea and I will continue to use my magic band.
