Will we be able to stop by BWV early in the a.m. and pick up our dining plan card prior to heading to AK on our first day? Our room will obviously not be ready, and that's okay, but we'll want out cards to use the dining plan.

Should I check-in online prior to getting to BWV so these will be ready for us?
 
yes, you can check in early, get your cards & the dining plan (and park tickets) will be activated when you check in. We have done this just about every single time we check in-- as early as 8:00 a.m...sometimes we've been lucky and room was actually ready (during very slow times of the year) but most of the time we had to call a number at 3:00 to find out our room number.

We have done the online check-in-can't hurt to do it...may save you time if there is a line when you get there (like if the Magic Express just arrived with a bus load from the airport.)
 
You can check in to your resort even if your room isn't ready and they will give you your tickets and activate the dining plan so that is no problem.

Don't be surprised if a room is ready though. Out of my last 10 or so visits when we have arrived early in the morning, they have had a room available and one one I even got upgraded. It just depends who you get at the counter. I always ask if one is ready.:thumbsup2
 
Great...Thanks! Will they give us one card for the dining plan for our entire group or how does that work?

Plan on using GAD vouchers and upgrading to multi-day park hopper passes once we are at AK.

Thanks so much!
 

I believe you can check in as early as 7 AM. You will not have access to the room until they tell you its ready, but you'll have your park tickets, dining plan credits, access to EMH and resort activities, etc., available immediately.

All dining plan credits for the room are accessible from each KTTW card. The credits are pooled, so you only need to present one card for the entire party.
