Hiya, Kerry, and welcome to planDisney!
Can you believe that you're just one sleep away from a Walt Disney World Resort vacation? That sounds like
a great big beautiful tomorrow to me! You'll be walking down Main Street before you know it, Kerry, so we'll get right to your question.
You'll be happy to hear that you're considered a Guest of your Disney Resort hotel all day long on the day you check-in, so you'll have access to all of the
perks and benefits for Guests hanging their mouse ears at a Disney Resort hotel as soon as you arrive, even if you haven't yet been assigned a room! This includes Early Theme Park Entry, use of the hotel's public facilities, and yes,
complimentary parking at both your Disney Resort hotel and Walt Disney World theme parks. You'll simply present your MagicBand or reservation on the My Disney Experience app at the entrance to the hotel. Once you've parked, you're more than welcome to hit the pool, grab a snack, or board a bus to Disney's Typhoon Lagoon or Blizzard Beach to take advantage of your
complimentary entry to a Walt Disney World water park on check-in day.
However you choose to spend your day, I encourage you to utilize the
Direct-to-Room Service available at Disney Resort hotels by completing the Online Check-In process through the My Disney Experience app or Walt Disney World website. Once your room is ready, you'll receive a text message or alert in the app and will be able to head straight to your room without stopping by the Front Desk. Just like magic!
I hope this was helpful, Kerry, and that your magical vacation is practically perfect! If any additional questions arise during your visit, feel free to stop back by
planDisney. We're always happy to help!
Thinking Happy Thoughts,
Lizzie
