Welcome to planDisney, Jeanne!
Thank you for visiting us with your very first question! It is a pleasure to assist you as you plan a magical visit to the Walt Disney World Resort!
If you have already made a reservation for a stay at a
Disney Resorts Collection hotel, all you need to do is
link the confirmation number to your Disney account and be sure to take advantage of
Online Check-in ahead of your visit. You can do so anytime online or via the
My Disney Experience mobile app. Once your reservation is linked to My Disney Experience, you will be able to purchase
MagicBands at pre-arrival prices and
make dining reservations up to 60 days in advance plus the length of your stay (up to 10 days). If you booked a vacation package including theme park tickets, you will also be able to start making
Disney Park Pass reservations.
planDisney tip: Have you heard about
Disney MagicMobile? This service is available for iPhone and Apple Watch users, and eligible Google Pay-enabled Android smartphones, and allows Guests to enter the theme parks by holding their device near an access point. After linking theme park tickets to your Disney account, use the My Disney Experience app to create a MagicMobile pass, add it to your digital wallet and head straight to the parks!
I hope this information is helpful, Jeanne! Stop by real soon if you have additional questions and be sure to check our
Panel Extras for more tips and advice!
Best magical wishes,
Thiana
