Parking at HS without going to hotel

[Beamerball]

We are staying at Animal Kingdom Lodge with check in on a Monday. On that same Monday can we go to HS for rope drop and park for free since we are staying on property that night? Or do we have to go to the hotel first, we have done online check in.

As long as you've done the online check in and put 6:30am, you're good to go

Thanks! The 6:30am tip was very helpful. The earliest choice was "before 7am" so I clicked on that. Thanks for the info!

I have a follow up question on this...do they now scan magic bands for park parking? No paper pass?
