Hey there, Jim!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
Early check-in is never a guarantee. However, as you are completing your
online check-in, you can choose to request to have your room available to you as early as possible. Check-in time is typically at 3:00pm, but on some occasions, resorts rooms are ready a little early.
You can also call 407-939-1936 and let a Cast Member know of your request for and early check-in.
Once you arrive and your resort room is ready, you are more than welcome to have Bell Service to store your luggage if you are ready to head to the theme parks. When traveling with my toddlers, very little time is spent in the resort, even on check-in day! So Bell Service is always our first stop if the room isn't quite ready for us!
Enjoy the magic and make lots of memories while journeying through the decades at
Disney's Pop Century Resort!
Happy planning!
