Where at WDW Can I Check In With Our E-Tickets For Flight?

[Madi100]

We had e-tickets our last trip, and we loved getting to the airport and already being checked it. It was super easy. When we got to WDW we figured we'd just go to the front desk and be able to check in on a computer someone at our resort. WRONG. The only place we could go was to the Contemporary and Coronade Springs. I was so upset last time because we took over an hour and a half to go to the Contemporary on the advise of a CM just to find that the office was closed. It had been closed when the CM told us to go there. DH ended up taking a bus to Animal Kingdom and then to Coronado Springs the next day to take care of it. It was really a hassle and might have been easier just to wait until we go to the airport.

This year we are taking our laptop and were excited we'd have a computer to do the whole check in thing. Then it all of sudden dawned on me, we won't have a printer What is the easiest way to check-in with our e-tickets? Does it really take that long at the airport? Is there any place at our resort where I could do it?

I guess that is a problem without the printer. At first I was going to say, that the resorts now have a $$ computer near the phones, but then the printer issue came up. We always use the Kiosk at the airport and it usually takes about 5 minutes or less no matter what time we have used them. The airline rep. will weigh and tag your bags and you just roll them to the xray machines at MCO--the whole process is less than 10 minutes. We have been flying Delta/Song on our last 5 trips, so not sure of other airlines. We love using the kiosks and they are a really time saver. We hope we never have to stand in the long lines again to check in and get boarding passes.

I would recommend the kiosks also. Great way to speed through the airport.

Thanks. On the way home, at least, I think we will use the kiosks. Are they pretty easy to find?

n2mm Question about baggage check with Song/Delta. In NYC
LGA/JFK when you use curbside check-in the bags are tagged and you do not see them till you claim them at your destination.
In MCO can you curbside check and go to the gate or do you have to bring your bags to TSA for X-ray?

Thanks

dvc guy. I didn't use curbside on either direction. I just rolled them to the kiosk and printed my boarding pass (I've yet to ever have to wait for a terminal either at Dulles or Orlando for the last 5 trips). While printing my boarding pass the airline rep just zips over, tags my luggage and away it goes (at Dulles). In Orlando while printing, the rep tags my luggage and we have to roll it the few feet to the TSA xray machine. Not sure who tags and takes your luggage if you use curbside. sorry. But the whole process takes only a few minutes on either side.

I checked in through a web phone at the BWI, then got my paper tickets printed at the airport kiosk. That allowed me to get my seat assignments taken care of (they hadn't been done beforehand).

Another option is to set up your tickets to "print to fax" and use the front desk's fax number. Talk to the hotel.

The BW also has a business center - open limited hours, but if you are in the Epcot/MGM area, it would be close.

I love curbside service. Yes MCO has it.
