You need a credit card sized card. Decorate it as you wish. Or not. We just just my old library card in the slot. Others use an old key card from a past hotel stay. Or use your KTTW card on the ship. Just remember to remove it when you leave the room.Can anyone tell me how to make a personalized DCL light card to turn on the lights in the cabin? I've been looking, searching and coming up empty handed. Appreciate information from the crafty Disney fanatics!!!! Thank you
No.I was on the Dream last and used an old Hotel Key Card . Are they needed on the Magic?
You can also just put it directly above the card slotAlso, if you glue a magnet to the back of the card, then you can attach it to the back of your door and you can always find it. We are gutted. We got an awesome light card in our FE last cruise, decorated with the dates, Halloween theme, etc. It's been on our fridge ever since, but in the last few months we've gone and lost it, just as our next cruise is coming up! So, so annoyed!
This is what the room stewards will do after they service your room too.Fwiw you don't have to remove the card to shut off TV etc. Just lift it up a 1/2 inch and leave it there.
Enter, push down, all power back.
That sounds like something that your particular room host does. Probably makes it easier for him. That way you can just leave it in the card slot and he doesn't have to provide one (and remember to take it out each time) when he's doing your room.Last year on the Fantasy our room steward left us a card for that purpose---in fact he left a couple different ones over the week. Basically plain cards that said DCL and had a character on them. Do they not still do this?
Yes! We do this using an old KTTW card. DH took an old KTTW card & used thinner to remove the printing. We then just used a sharpie and wrote our last name on the front of the card - slapped a magnet on the back and stick it on the wall above the card slot when we leave the room - it works super!Also, if you glue a magnet to the back of the card, then you can attach it to the back of your door and you can always find it.

No. Only requirement, size of a credit card.Do they have to have a magnetic strip to work?
