    We are staying on property but my husband and son are arriving first thing in the morning and my daughter and I will be getting there later in the day. Can the guys use the early entry on the day we check in even if check in isn't until the afternoon?

    Hi there, Jennifer, and welcome to planDisney! You'll be arriving at the Most Magical Place on Earth tomorrow, and you must be thrilled! From one Jennifer to another, I'm so happy you've stopped by with this great question. It sounds like you're looking forward to a fun-filled vacation with your family!

    Jennifer, you'll be happy to know that your Disney Resorts Collection hotel Guest benefits begin on the day you check in! That means you can take advantage of Early Theme Park Entry, the 2025 Water Park Benefit, complimentary Walt Disney World Resort transportation, and the amenities at your Resort, like parking, the pool, and gym. You're even welcome to drop your luggage with Bell Services at your Resort before your room is ready, so that it doesn't have to sit in your car all day.

    Fall is a fantastic time to visit Walt Disney World Resort! Not only is it spooky season, but it's also when you can experience the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival. It's fun for the whole family, with beautiful seasonal decorations, awesome entertainment, and food and drinks that everyone can enjoy. The Global Marketplaces you'll find throughout the park offer unique snacks, which is a great way to try new flavors and even get your kids involved in the taste testing! 

    Jennifer, I hope this is helpful to you as you finish packing your suitcases. Please stop by planDisney with any other questions you have!

    See ya real soon!
