So confused...ticket = magic mornings or staying on site = magic mornings?

[nlm74]

So we booked a room only deal at PPH, basically so we'd get magic mornings every day. We were planning to buy our tickets from LMT at the discounted rate, but I see that they are only valid for 1 magic morning per stay.

How does this all work? Since we're staying on site are we eligible for MM every day or does it go with the tickets you buy?

Thanks in advance.

If you're staying on site you don't need to worry about your ticket's MM. You can enter early every day to whichever park is offering the early hour that day (they sort of alternate). The MM on your ticket would only matter if you were planning to stay off site for part of your trip.

If I remember right, you will show them your room card along with your park pass at the turnstyle when using the MM/EE to show you are eligible for entry. It's an easy process. And you will love early entry into DCA. That's my favorite part if staying onsite. Well, one of my favorite parts.

Thanks so much all!

Yep. You just use your room key. You also get early entry on your day of arrival and departure.

3+ day Ticket=Magic Morning (1 day at Disneyland ONLY)

Disney Hotels stay=Early Entry (every day of your stay, including check in and out days)

How does this work for your arrival day? If we are coming from somewhere else buy staying at GCH that night, do we have to swing by the GCH before going to the turnstile?

You have to check into the Hotel and get your room key. They will text you the room number, later in the afternoon when your room is ready.

Yes, I have checked in at 6am to take advantage of a 7am EMH. Make sure that everyone in your party that needs admission tickets also gets a room key with their name on it. You need to show your room key along with your admission ticket for EMH.

Because the GCH entrance to DCA only has two turnstiles the line really backs up. It is faster to use the Main entrance to DCA during EMH.

Yes you have to do the checkin process.

Yep.

They actually put your name on the room key? Would small children also need a room key with their name on it?

I am pretty sure they do but maybe I am thinking of our KTTW cards from DW. But, on second thought, I am thinking no keys for our DDs. DH and I normally ask for just two keys. Hmmm, curious what others have to say who know for sure!

Yes , everyone registered for that room gets a room key with their name on it. Not sure how they handle small children, all our kids are teens. I could be wrong ,but I believe everyone old enough to be required to have an admission ticket can get a room key with their name on it.It may be at the discretion of the parents . Not sure how they would handle it at the turnstile when they ask for everyone to show room key and admission ticket.Best to ask at check in.

When I was there a couple of weeks ago they were only asking for one room key per family. However, I would get and carry keys for everyone just in case.
