    We arrive on April 13th about 9:10 am, check-in is at 3 at our resort. Can we still go to parks and use magic bands before check in?

    Hi there, Kim!

    Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question!  The answer is absolutely YES.  One of the things I love most about my Disney vacation is being able to get to my Disney Resort hotel as early as I'd like on my day of arrival.  Why?  Because my Disney adventure begins the moment I step foot on Walt Disney World property.  I know that I can check-in and store my luggage with Bell Services and be on my way to the parks, pool...you name it.  If, however, you do not want to stop at your resort first, you can absolutely head straight to the parks with your MagicBands and enjoy.  If you choose this option, be sure to do online check-in prior to your trip.  This way you can sign up for a text message that will alert you when your room is ready.  The text message will provide you with your room location, so there will be no reason to stop at the front desk.  Enjoy your exciting vacation!

    Magically yours in 2018,

    Jacqui C.
