Last year Centives posted an article that looked at the Disneyland of the future. There were to be no more lines, and a wristband that acted as a credit card. We wrote then that the system could be put in place as soon as 2013. Well it’s 2013. And it’s here:

• The Disneyland experience is now driven by a website and app called MyMagic+ where visitors can book high priority seating at parades and shows.
• The app allows guests to reserve their spot in a line, and then be alerted when it’s their turn to board, meaning that visitors no longer have to wait in queues.
• Visitors can also register for an RFID bracelet that serves as a park ticket, hotel room key, FastPass, and, even, credit card.
• These bands can store personal information such as your name, so that the next time Princess Jasmine kneels to talk to a child, she can greet him by name, and, if appropriate, wish him a happy birthday.
