EMH on Arrival day?

[sdjess]

I've been to Disney many times, but this will be the first time staying on property. How do we get EMH on check in day?

When you arrive and do preliminary check in (the room might not be ready) you will get credentials for the extra magic hours, e.g. encoded on your magic bands. Actually I suggest going through the motions of asking, to be sure the check in CM does not overlook it.

Then you would not have to return to your resort early evening before EMH starts.

Not sure how many guests succeed in doing this, but the check in desk is open ca. 6 AM, in time to get to 8 AM morning EMHs (take out breakfast items).

We will be camping at Fort Wilderness. We are driving when the kids get out of school (It's a 24 hour drive with stops), so we will be arriving in Orlando the night before. Do not want to set up camp at night so we are staying at a hotel that first night. Really wanted to try and do EMH in the morning on the check in day and then go and set up in the afternoon. So we need to get to the campground before the EMH? Just for additional info: we have activated AP's.

You don't have to go to the front desk unless you want to. You can do on line check in and you are checked in. In theory, you can go to the park and you will get a text when your room is ready. I say in theory because we rarely do it, we actually do go to the front desk but only because I like them to know I'm physically there in case a room becomes ready early.

Thank you so much for your responses!

You can just do online check-in
