    On day of checkin..arriving early can we have a snack at the hotel. Perhaps using early checkin online?

    Hello again, M A! Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I am so glad you brought us another great question. Guests are welcome to pick up a snack in their resort at any time, as long as their dining locations or gift shops are open. These will open as early as 6:00 a.m., but some do open an hour later. Cast Members at your Walt Disney World Resort hotel will be able to give you more information upon your arrival.

    The last time we spoke, you were asking how best to use your Disney Dining Plan credits. I am glad I know you are using the Disney Dining Plan so we can discuss how to best purchase your items. When you arrive, you will want to stop by the front desk to check-in if you are there earlier than the standard 11:00 a.m. check-in time. Doing so will ensure that your dining entitlements are activated. You will notice a special line designated for Guests who completed Online Check-In. It should only take a few moments to complete this and the Cast Member will have you on your way to search out a practically perfect snack faster than you can say, "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!"

    I hope you have a magical day! Please stop by anytime you have a question while planning your vacation.
