Final trip documents?

[jrasmom]

Do they arrive exactly 30 days out, or approx. 30 days out.

How long would you wait before calling Disney to see where they are?

WHO do you call to check on them IF you call?

I'm a little antsy!! We're 30 days out today!!!

Our first trip and I am excited to receive some sort of "proof"

Hi..I reveived my docs yesterday and I am arriving at Pop 9/16. I called CRO to inquire about them 5 days before I received them and the CM told me she would send a note to the doc dept. she must of because I received them. I would call CRO and find out.

 

[jrasmom]

Okay, so I called.

According to the person I spoke with we shouldn't receive any documents, luggage tags or anything ahead, because we booked online.

I thought #1, the docs were your receipt/proof that final payment was made (which was done May 30th)and credited to your account, #2 EVERYTHING I read has Travel Documents on it and explains how they will mail 40 days out OR after receipt of final document...NO WHERE does it say that those rules don't apply to internet bookings.

I'm disappointed, I was looking forward to getting them in the mail as proof that we're really going, and that it's quickly approaching!

Booked online or not, you do need the travel documents...they have your Magical Express tickets for the bus, both arrival and departure, and the special yellow paper luggage tags you need to have them pick up your luggage...we booked online last year's trip and we got ours about three weeks out. You also should get Happiest Celebration on Earth blue plastic luggage tags, one per person.

Call them again, and talk to another CM. I think you were misinformed!

I booked at disneyworld.com...where online did you book?

Hey jrasmom! We're 30 days out today as well! I haven't received anything yet either. I think I'll call tomorrow. I booked by phone. What number did you call?

 

[bnf2]

We're 30 days out as well!!! Wooohooo!! We have received our DME info and luggage tags, but nothing else. I've heard you get them anywhere from 2-4 weeks out; guess I'll give it another week... maybe.

 

[Adam1217]

I dont get anything until im at least 14 days out!!!!!!

 

[jlatina32]

I received my DME document and yellow tags just this past weekend. I have yet to recieve the Happiest Celebration on earth plastic luggage tags with vouchers. If I remember correctly from my trip last year, I received each within a week or 2 of each other.....well....I know they are coming or else I'll be calling Disney people.

 

[jrasmom]

I forgot to say we are driving down, so we won't be using ME from the airport or anything...does that matter?

I booked thru disneyworld.com and called

407-939-7675

Is there a different number I should be calling to get the RIGHT facts?

 

[jrasmom]

I also forgot to tell you that after I called them, a few hours later they called me.................to make sure we have all of our dining book because things are booked up due to the free dining plan!! EEEEKKKK!

 

[Adam1217]

I dont think youll be getting anything if your driving down there, because your tickets to the parks and the dining package is all on your hotel key to your room, thats if you are staying on-site. If you are staying off-site then I dont know how that works but if your driving I wouldnt think you get anything.

You still get final documents ahead of time, regardless of whether you drive or not! It comes in a plastic envelope with happiest celebration on earth luggage tags, vouchers and confirmation! Then you present your vouchers at check in and receive your key to the world card

 

[Mrsduck101]

Wow so many people are 30 days out today - like me

No documents yet here. I will call if I don't get them by the end of next week I think. I do have the ME tags, though.

Last year we drove and yes we did get documents with vouchers and I believe we booked online. So it shouldn't matter you should be getting travel documents soon.

My kids are so excited to go they can't stand it (OK maybe I am too)

Yeah, me too! Only my kids don't know we are going in 30 days... they still think we're planning for our "some-day trip" when they are 7 or 8!! It's been great having them 'plan' our trip with us w/o them even realizing it (they're just 6!) We plan to tell them September 9.... hopefully we'll have our final document by then!

Have a great trip everyone!

I would definently call back because that doesn't sound right at all. Besides you should get your pretty holographic luggage tags, I still have mine from last year but that doesn't stop me from wanting more

Come to think about it, not this year and not the year before (we booked trhough a travel agent last year) but in 2004 I booked online and I still received final docs in the mail

We're going 9/23-10/2 we've recieved our magical express paperwork and tags but nothing else yet.

 

[sleepingbeautymama]

We're driving and when I lasted called them to confirm that my trip was paid in full I asked if we would be receiving any more paperwork and I was told that we would not. However I thought that we would get the Planet Hollywood vouchers in the mail and it would be nice to get a receipt showing that we are paid in full. I'm wondering, was the CM wrong, should we be receiving something else before we leave? We are down to 31 days!

 

[sconnell]

I called and talked to someone yesterday evening. He said that I should be getting the final mailing 3 weeks out. So, I've got a week or so!
I booked by phone. We're driving. We check in on Sept. 24th.
On past trips with same (phone, driving) we recieved our final papers about that time. It had luggage tags (though not the pretty ones I've heard about) and vouchers for everything. Instructions, etc.
I'm so excited!
