On-Line Check In/Text Message?

[ltl engine]

If I did on-line checkin and asked to be sent a text when the room is ready, do I have to stop by WL when we arrive or will they text us no matter what when it is ready? I am thinking to head right over to the parks but we can stop at WL on the way if it means they will text us when the room is ready.

You will need to be physically present at Wilderness Lodge before they will activate the text function for you. The physical check in will ensure that you are who you say you are with a presentation of a photo ID.

I have to show a photo ID at all major hotels in the US before I can receive my room keys.

I wish they would would change the name from on-line check in to pre-registration. All online checkin does is get your info into the system and lets the resort know when you will arrive. Otherwise, it's check in as usual at the resort. Too many people think they are all checked in and ready to go when they do online checkin.
