Hi Amy!
Your vacation sounds practically perfect in every way! My family and I have done a split-stay on several of our
Walt Disney World Resort vacations! We love experiencing the decor, dining and amenities of each
Resort hotel!
Great news! You will receive two separate sets of
MagicBands (if you would like), and you do have the opportunity to customize both sets.
You are able to complete your online check-in as soon as you link your Resort reservation to your
My Disney Experience account. Your My Disney Experience account will easily walk you through the online check-in process. You will enter information including preferred mode of message delivery during your vacation, credit card information, Resort hotel arrival time, room location requests, account PIN (to be used for room charges), and your address. Once you have confirmed the information and agree to the terms and conditions, you will be checked in on-line.
When you arrive at your Resort hotel, if you have your MagicBand, you can skip the front desk and head straight to your room. Once your room is available, if you would like, you can unlock your door with your
My Disney Experience Mobile App and your mobile phone. With your reservation linked to your My Disney Experience account, simply view your Disney Resort hotel reservation and select "Unlock Door." Even though you can skip the front desk, I always like to stop by and pick up my Welcome Packet.
Thanks so much for sharing your question with the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Please let me know if you need any other information as you plan your Walt Disney World Resort vacation. I know you are going to have a wonderful vacation! Enjoy every magical moment!!!
