Online Check-In question

[xceebeex]

I have a quick question regarding online check in. We arrive in Disney this coming Saturday May 5th and I was wondering if I should do the online check in or not? I am staying at Animal Kingdom Kidani Village in a Savannah view room that I rented through a DVC member.

Is there a downside to doing online check in for this case? The only "downsides" that I have read about before are that your chances for an "upgrade" are almost zero if you do online check in, but I don't think that matters in my case.

Thoughts?

You are on DVC points so the chances of an upgrade are zero any way. The do not upgrade with points unless the room had a maintance problem and the had no others in that category to give you.

No real down side to on line check in.

That is what I was thinking, but just wanted to verify. Now if I do online check in, does that transfer the reservation to me at that point (i.e. DVC member can no longer make changes, cancel, etc)?
