So, do they open online checkin in 5 1/2 hours, or keep us hanging? Stay tuned…

 

[CamColt]

Im waking up to find out.

 

[mcd2745]

My money is on keeping us hanging...

 

[stitch'sgirl]

Online check available.....cautiously optimistic...

 

[CamColt]

Is it working for any of you? We can't upload the pics.

Yes it took about 2 hours and many tries to upload the pics.

What pics do we need to upload? Passport pics, or something else?

Passport and an identification photo for security - headshot, no glasses, nothing on your head

so far, no luck. typical Disney IT.

 

[CamColt]

This is awful! I wish they gave us notice about the pics, and it would be nice if their system would accept them.

I agree. Letting you know about the pictures would be exactly the sort of communication they SHOULD have mentioned!!!!

YES! Let's wake up at midnight, dig out the passports, take photos of them, and and grab a nice head shot with bed head while Im at it. GEESH! But it didnt matter anyway since the website wouldnt accept the photos. And without the photos you couldnt go on to the PAT which is what I really wanted to get to.

Hope everyone finally got their check-in complete. Only took us about 16 hours from when we started. We did have to give up for a while.

Is everyone noticing that the PATs seem to all be pushed back?

 

[JoeFromSeoul]

So, did everyone survive the lovely new online check-in process? The one plus for me was being able to start at 1pm on Saturday rather than midnight. What a nightmare…it took almost four and a half hours to complete.

Geesh, we did good then...only about 12 hours from start to finish.
Yep, and very sad about it. I know, I do expect changes and inconveniences, but this one hurts when you are used to sitting at Cabanas, waiting for it to open at 11:45.

That was just insane. At the very least DCL should have told us we needed pictures...and maybe had a website that worked. I said that to DH too, thank God it was on a Saturday and he was home or I never would have gotten through it myself. You really lucked out with the time difference.

Now I am concerned about their plans for the "Security Photograph" we had to upload...seems to me that they may put those hastily prepared photos on the KttW cards...The Boss Lady and our daughter may be mad at me.

Pics shouldn’t be on the cards, but like I said in our other group, expect the unexpected.

 

[JoeFromSeoul]

Yeah. I guess I got wrapped up in wearing a badge with photo ID for work every day and got it in my mind that they were on the KttW card. I actually had to dig up old cards from past cruises to convince myself. Don’t grow old, it isn’t always worth it!

 

[bobbiwoz]

I guess the photo you send is instead of them taking the picture as you board. Less interaction with CM.

 

[CamColt]

For anyone who may not have seen it yet, they changed our itinerary. Good news, it makes me think they are planning to go. Bad news is the sea day is now day 1. But I will take the good over the bad any day!
