Direct-to-Room Arrival Option at Walt Disney World®

Over the next several weeks, the Walt Disney World® Resort is launching a new Direct-to-Room Arrival option for select guests staying at their on-property hotels! This new process will streamline the check-in process and will be great for our repeat clients that are familiar with their family’s favorite resort!

Guests who have completed a few steps before their arrival will be able to go directly to their room once they receive a text that it is ready without stopping at the resort’s front desk. While most reservations will be eligible for this direct-to-room arrival options, some packages/rooms booked under special discounts requiring additional verification as well as most “last minute” bookings will still need to stop at the front desk. This program is completely optional – anyone wishing to check-in with a Cast Member at their resort’s front desk may still do so!

This new process is being rolled out to all of the Walt Disney World® Resorts over the next several weeks. Please contact your Magic Maker® for additional details.
