On May 25th we're sailing on the Magic, leaving from Port Canaveral. We're taking Disney transport from the Polynesian Resort to the port. What port arrival time do we select when we do on-line check in? Thanks.
 
If you are taking Disney transportation from a Disney resort, you should be automatically assigned a Port Arrival time and allowed to enter the port when your bus arrives. If you don’t have a PAT preassigned, just pick any one.
 
Pick the easiest that is available. It doesn't matter as far as when you get to the port since you'll be on the Disney bus, but it will matter for your boarding group.
 
If you're taking DCL transport, you won't be able to select at PAT. Both that, and your boarding group, will automatically be assigned. It will say this when you get to the end of check in.

Your PAT won't really matter, as they'll let you into the terminal as soon as your bus arrives. Your boarding group will matter, as you'll still have to wait for that to be called. DCL transport usually gets pretty high BGs, so depending on when your bus arrives you probably won't have a long wait in the terminal until your group is called.
