Hi all, we leave in 3 days and I failed to look at my ME documents closely enough to realize most of the info was wrong, my flights werent even on there, it just said no flight information provided (which was untrue, I called them myself). So I called in and they supposedly fixed it all. Does it matter if my docs don't have the right info when getting to MCO?
 
It shouldn't matter. My brother didn't have his flight info on his either when he went and they let him on the ME with no problem. The only thing I would tell you is when you arrive, make sure that you give a castmember your flight information for your return trip. My brother didn't have that either and it was just a headache the night before he left. So I am sure if you tell them when you arrive, or verify they have it, you will have no problems. Have a great vacation!!
 
All that is needed is the correct date (check in date; some family members can arrive later with later date Magical Express reservations).

It is okay to be hours early or tardy; you will simply be put on the next bus that is not full.

Going back home, if your DME confirmation, normally delivered to your room morning before checkout, is wrong or missing or needs amending, then you must get a correct confirmation that morning before checkout before heading to the parks.

The correct time to be on the bus back to the airport is about 3 hours before your plane departure (4 hours for charter or international). If this lead time is much less then that is a goof on your confirmation sheet that needs fixing, not bonus park time for you.
 

I've had that happen before and everything worked out fine. I just make sure when I get there to double check that my return flight is correct in their system so I don't have an issue with pick-up time. The only mistake we ever had that necessitated new docs was when they left my dd off completely.

Agreed - just wanted to add that if there is a long line at the DME desk you can wait and correct your return information later at the resort!
