Charging to Room Key???

[mlg32]

Hi, This is our first family vacation to WDW and with 6 days to go(happy dance!!!) I am just trying to figure out the easiest way to handle our expenses when we are at WDW, cash, credit card etc. I thought I read somewhere that you can use your room key to charge almost anything in the resort and parks. Is this correct?? Do they then bill your credit card right away or do you pay at the end of your stay? Any info would be appreciated. We are staying at the AKL in a standard room. Thanks for all the fab info I have gotten from this site, my husband thinks I am psycho but he will be so thanking me......

Hi,

When you check in they will ask you if you would like to set up charging to your room. Just give them a credit card and at the deluxes I beleive the limit is $1,500. They will charge the card either at the end of your stay or when you hit $1,500 whichever comes first.

Let me add that you can get a print out whenever you want of all the charges to your room. The front desk at your Disney resort will do this for you if you want to keep track.
If you don't need this during your stay you will get a print out the day of your check out. If you choose express check out it will be on your door the morning you will be leaving.
Enjoy your trip!!!!!
