Hello, Wendy!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
It sounds like you will be arriving to your Disney Resort before the 3:00 pm check-in time. That is COMPLETELY OK! When you arrive, you will still head directly to the front desk and check-in. For even faster service, you can always
check-in online as well! The Cast Member will then activate your
Magic Your Way Theme Park Tickets,
Disney Dining Plan,
Memory Maker and all charging privileges.
NOTE: You are only allowed to activate everything at your Disney Resort. You can then check your bags where they will stay safe and sound until your room is ready. After you check your bags, your family is free to go directly to any of the Disney Theme Parks! Once your room is ready, a Cast Member will then take your bags to your room. So, when you arrive back to your resort, your bags will already be there waiting for you! How MAGICAL is that?!
If you have other questions, please let us know! We are here to help in any way!
See you REAL soon!
Wes
