You always need to carry your identification and money with you to the Disney Parks. The convenience of the Magic Band is great, but if the system that supports the band goes down, you could find yourself in a pickle.
This happened a few months ago and guests were unable to pay for souvenirs or meals with the Magic Band. They were instructed to pay out of pocket for their meals and get reimbursed at their resort’s front desk if they were on the dining plan. But those that didn’t take an alternative payment with them to the parks weren’t able to purchase anything.
You should always carry your identification with you even if you aren’t driving. If something happens to you in the parks, first responders need to be able to identify you quickly. They don’t have the ability to scan your Magic Band to see who you are. And if you lose your Magic Band, you need your identification to get another one. If you have issues with your payment, your tickets or anything else, you are going to need your identification.
