BelleCiavo's Report from 9/7/08
8/25/08
The Walt Disney World resort has internally announced that it will be discontinuing its wristband policy for Evening Extra Magic Hours effective September 7, 2008.
In lieu of showing wristbands at each operating attraction, eligible resort Guests will now be required to show their Key to the World Card or eligible Resort ID/Key.
This procedure was previously tested for several days in February 2008 at the Magic Kingdom park.
Leary of getting rid of wristbands and using "Key" cards
To me I worry that using key cards may cause more aggrevation than good... i.e., now most have park passes (some for more than one day) with other things like, room, dining, etc.
Chances are increased significantly of "losing" room keys if need to keep pulling in and out of safe keeping to be scanned, etc.
Think of the aggrevation for the guests as well as Disney staff when cards lost?!
