..I just read about online check-in and that it may help you get your room request or that your room maybe ready earlier.

My question is how do I know what room to ask for? We are a dedicated 2 bedroom LV at BLT. I know their was a post with all the rooms and views. But with out going through all them. Does anyone have a suggestion on floor or location. Family is DH and me, plus 3 DSs 17,13 and 11.

Thanks for everyone help and advice inadvance.

For a BLT Lake View, there is a chance to get a view of the Magic Kingdom if you request an Even Numbered Room on the North End of the building. Requests have to noted on the reservation by MS.

I don't believe that on-line checkin offers any benefit to getting your requests or being in the room quicker than if you check in at the front desk.

The higher the better. Plus the bridge to the Contemporary is on the fifth floor, if this is important to you. Normally, we just show up and take what is available. We did online check-in on our last trip, and the room was ready on arrival.

The best feature; there is a special line for online check-in, and at the Contemporary, this is gold (especially if a Magical Express bus arrives at the same time as you do
