Hi Talisa,
A few months away until your magical vacation to Walt Disney World Resort. Wonderful!
The
Disney Dining Plans are an awesome way to include the cost of your meals within your Magic Your Way Vacation Package, and you won't have to worry about budgeting or figuring out how much money you would need. There are different options to choose from. My family finds the Disney Dining Plan as the most convenient of them.
Regular check-in time for the Disney Resort hotels is 3:00 p.m., except for The Campsites at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort which is 1:00 p.m., and Disney Deluxe Villas at 4:00 p.m. But this means that your room is promised to be ready by that time. You are welcomed to arrive to the resort hotel early in the morning, and as soon as you pick up and activate your MagicBands, you can start enjoying all the resort amenities, use your theme park tickets, and your dining plan credits. All you have to do is stop by the front desk. By the way, your dining plan credits are good until midnight of the day of check-out.
One suggestion I recommend, is to take advantage of
Online Check-In. It's quick and takes care of most things you would typically do in person. Then, once you get to the resort, you can simply go to the Online Check-In Desk, where you will get your Welcome Folder and
MagicBands (unless you received them in the mail prior.) Complete the quick process, and be on your merry way. It's that simple!
I’m sure you have more questions for us. Simply come back to the
Disney Parks Moms Panel and we'll help you out.
Ricardo.
