Early Entry?

[jltwdw]

Going to be going into DCA on morning of Fri. 3/31 and wondering if we can go in on the early entry hour without having 'checked in' yet for our reservation at PP for 3/31-4/7? Do we have to show proof only of our reservation or will we not be allowed the early entry because we aren't truly checked in yet?

Have to be checked in. You can check in, even if before check-in time, just may not have room ready.

Is on-line check-in available or check in only at the hotel?

Only at the hotel.
Arrive at PPH an hour before Extra Magic Hour, to allow time to check-in and walk to the parks.
Bell Services will store your luggage. You will receive room keys (cards) that are needed for EMH. PPH will text or phone your room number when available.

Nonsuch has your answer above.
One thing you might need to know for EE to either park as a hotel guest, is each person will need to show their room key card along with park ticket.

Checking in to take advantage of EE on your first day is easy!

Have fun
