Can we do online check in more than 10 days out now?

I'm reading about people checking in 30 or 60 days out. When did that change? I thought it was 10 days.I was never notified about a change. I think I'm missing something?

I called to add magical express and they informed me of this new policy. It was the first I had heard of it. 60 days out although I'm not sure what the benefit would be to checking in that early. Any ideas?

I just tried to check in online for a trip in 12 days and it wouldn't work. I'll try again.

From what I can see it has to do with the impending FastPass+ system. Apparently once it's up and running you'll be able to book your advance Fastpasses in that 60 day window.

You can't use the link on the member website, it will redirect you to a room booking webpage. If you log off all Disney website, you should be able to manually complete the process here: MyDisneyReservation.com

Your other option is to link your DVC Room Reservation to your disneyworld.com account and complete on-line check-in there. This is using the My Disney Experience portion of the disneyworld.com website. The MDE enhancements are currently only available to US residents.
