Checked in online.. Ready to go??

Quick question, just checked in online but I know rooms aren't usually ready until around 4ish. Got the magic bands in the mail, question is do I have to go to the Disney Resort to activate them?

Technically....no, you don't. Some have experienced problems getting into their rooms, though, and ended up at the front desk anyway.

Ah so I am ready to go to the parks without visiting the resort?

as long as your park tickets are linked to your band you are good to go right to the park.

This. Our room wasn't ready...CBR held our carry-on luggage and we went to Epcot. Got a text that our room was ready and room number. Bags were in the room when we got back.

Thnks for the replies! Sounds like Disney put a lot of effort in getting this system right! But don't you usually need a parking pass in your car when entering the parks?

Not any more. Just scan your Magic Band.

Remember to have your magic bands with you, and not packed in your luggage.

O didnt know they changed it! They now scan your magic band at the ticket gate?

Yup. And at the resorts too.
