Disney arrival delivery

[cgh]

I was thinking of having disney floral put something in the room for us and had some questions:

1. Is it usually in the room waiting for you when you arrive?
2. How are the bags? i was thinking of doing the canvas bag-or they worth it, or do you just ditch them? How big are they?

No idea on the bags but Disney will not deliver items to your room before check in because until you have your key your room can change.

In my experience, the resorts aren't great at having things delivered to your room, even after you check-in. In December, DH ordered flowers for DM and I but they were never delivered. He had to tell me about them so I could call the front desk and ask for them. In March, he ordered both flowers and chocolate covered strawberries (on two different days). Both times, we had to go or call and ask about them. I think they just get so busy it gets overlooked. YMMV of course.

#1. I was told that after you check in, they will deliver to your room, if you go with the bag, (the Mickey treat one is the one I'm looking at)... then you can schedule delivery for the day before you check in, that will get it there earlier in the day after check in... I gave up on it being in the room, but thought that we would go explore the resort, go eat, go to DTD, either way by the time we get back after dinner I'm sure it will be there...

#2. I want the bag too...with our last name on it that way it can be used again... I would hope it's pretty nice because that would stink to pay what they are asking and it's junk!

I have had two Disney room celebrations that came with flowers and other surprises (rose petals, champagne, gifts, etc). One of mine was delivered on probably the most busiest day - Valentine's Day. The first time was for my anniversary in November. Apparently, they gave DH a two hour window that they would deliver it during. He conveniently got me out of the room during that time. Came back to an amazing celebration!

The second one was on Valentine's Day, and arrived just as we were finished getting settled into the room. Both were on time, as per DH. Neither time was it forgotten.

I also had a flowers delivered to POR right before a horse and carriage ride. They arrived on time, the only thing that was forgotten was a balloon. DH called the florist after our trip, and informed them of the missing piece, and they refunded him right away.

They cannot deliver before you check in, as your room could change.

If you've done early check in does that change this at all?

In years past at DL, I've run up to the room before my son and dropped some items off that I picked up at the Disney store (PJs, and maybe a couple other things). Well, we are leaving in less then a week and I have a 4 month old, and I don't think I'll be able to get to the Disney store.

I can share my experience with Disney Floral. We've had flowers delivered 3 times and each time the flowers were placed in the room after we had our room assignment.

Re: the bags---can't help there since I've never seen them

No, it doesn't matter if you check in online or not. Things can still be changed prior to your arrival so they won't deliver until you are there and checked in.
