Does Disney still send luggage tags with magic bands?

Previously, they were mailed out to Guests prior to arrival. Now, you can head to Guest Services at your resort to request your souvenir luggage tags. I hope you have the most amazing time at the Walt Disney World Resort.



As of 2026, the tradition of receiving complimentary luggage tags with a MagicBand order has largely shifted. Following the transition to "MagicBand+" and the emphasis on the "Disney MagicMobile" service, Walt Disney World no longer automatically mails out the iconic plastic luggage tags as part of a standard vacation package. Instead, these have become a premium or "opt-in" item for guests staying at Disney Resort hotels who purchase their bands in advance through the My Disney Experience app. Furthermore, with the discontinuation of the "Magical Express" airport shuttle service a few years ago, the yellow "luggage delivery" tags that allowed Disney to pull bags from the airport carousel are entirely a thing of the past. In 2026, if you want a Disney-themed luggage tag, you typically need to purchase one at a merchandise location or through the Shop Disney portal, as the company continues to push for a more digital-first, waste-reduction approach to guest arrivals.

Many travelers take time to add a luggage tag to the suitcases they plan to check-in. However, it's just as important to add a luggage tag to carry-on bags. In the event an airline overbooks a flight, there's a chance a carry-on will have to be checked at the gate and already having a tag in place helps with tracking.
