How early can I arrive at Disney resort?

mrsbenny · 4 Jun 20, 01:02 PM

We have 11 nights at endless summer booked. I’m thinking of getting a two day Disney ticket and stopping one night at Disney. Plan would be to arrive early and leave an over night bag. Have breakfast in resort and head to a park. Stop over night and head to the second park before heading back to endless summer when we have had enough!

What time could we arrive for our first day. Is 7 am too early? Can we collect magic bands at that time ? Then will we just get an email with room number when it is ready? Thanks

7 am is no problem - even earlier than that if you want to (not sure when breakfast open though).

That’s great thanks. Will I get my magic bands at 7? I do have some from previous stays. Thanks

Yes you should get them when checking in

you will get your MBs at check in, even at 7am

as you're only staying one night, I assume room location is not a huge concern

so, do Online Check in. If they don't change procedures, during that process, you'll be given the option to tick a box to prioritize room readiness. (it will overide any room request) and indicate you'll be arriving super early (like 6am)
It will give you a higher chance that the room be ready even at 7am, and allow you to drop your night bag in the room, instead of having to drop it by luggage/bell services

there is no guarantee, but, sometimes, especially if it's not really a busy time, you get the room before "official" time. Basically, it doesn't hurt to do it

I've been given a room at POP as early as 7:30am a few years back.
