What time does the bag check line start on a 7AM Magic Morning?

We plan to do MM on 12/5. When's the earliest we can arrive to have our bag check and stand in line? Thanks!

You can really show up at any time. The lines will start at the bag check, but after you get through the bag check you will still be waiting in line at the gates. We usually aim to hit the bag check area at around 6:40 on a 7:00 early entry day. There are always people who have been there before that. I think the earliest I have ever arrived was about 6:20 and there was already a couple dozen people waiting.

We did a staycation at PPH last weekend and got to the bag check line (DTD side) at about 6:10 and were the first ones there on both Sat and Sun. Both mornings they started bag check at 6:30. After bag check if you're at the front of your line at the gates (or worst case near the front), you can easily get to HSM and walk on without any wait. Everyday this week (since last Sat) both DL and DCA were open for EMH/MM. At DL, the majority of the crowd went to HSM so if your goal is to do PP first rather than HSM, the mad rush to PP hasn't been as bad as usual since HSM opened.

We are aiming to do PP first! Thanks BigCheese!
