Hi there, Margaret!
I get excited just hearing about another family planning to visit the most Magical Place on Earth! Your trip to
Walt Disney World will be here before you know it.
Although an early check-in can not be guaranteed, there are a couple of things you can do. First, make sure to do
Online Check-In. You will be asked at what time you will be arriving to the resort. If you indicate that you are arriving early, the room assigners will see that. Second, when you arrive at your Disney Resort you should head straight to the front desk. As always, Disney will do its best to accommodate your request. Even if you aren't able to get an early check-in, don't fear! Simply have Bell Services store your bags and you are free to enjoy all your hotel (and all of Walt Disney World) has to offer. When your room is ready, you can opt to receive a text so that you can head to your room when it's most convenient.
I wish you a fabulous vacation!
Magically yours in 2018,
Jacqui
