Disney Suggests Guests with Upcoming Reservations use Online Check-In

Disney Suggests Guests with Upcoming Reservations use Online Check-In

Walt Disney World Resort hotels are reopening later this month and the theme parks are reopening next month. Disney is suggesting that guests with upcoming reservations use online check-in to help with social distancing efforts. Using online check-in will also allow guests to avoid delays.

Online check-in allows guests to go directly to their room once they arrive at the hotel. The process can be done in advance on the Disney World website or on the My Disney Experience app. Guests will need their MagicBand or the ‘Unlock Door’ feature on their phone in order to enter their room.

Using online check-in allows guests to take advantage of Direct-to-Room Service. If you are unfamiliar with this service here’s how it works:

Follow these simple steps to enjoy Direct-to-Room service at your Disney Resort hotel:

  1. Link your Disney Resort hotel reservation to your Disney Account
  2. Use the Online Check-In service prior to arrival
  3. On your arrival day, use the My Disney Experience app to get real-time Resort reservation updates, including a notification when your room is ready
  4. When you receive notice that your room is ready, simply use the My Disney Experience app to find your room and unlock your door with either your MagicBand or the Unlock Door feature on the app

If you arrive before your room is ready, make sure notifications are enabled for your My Disney Experience app. Disney will notify you as soon as your room is ready for you.

Check-in time for all Disney Resort hotels is 3:00 PM, except for Disney Deluxe Villa Resorts, which have a check-in time of 4:00 PM.

Major League Soccer teams to stay at Disney’s Swan & Dolphin Resort

Major League Soccer teams to stay at Disney’s Swan & Dolphin Resort Swan & Dolphin

We just shared the news that Major League Soccer is coming to Walt Disney World! All 26 Teams will be resuming their 2020 season at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex starting July 8th, but where will all of these players stay?

While this information wasn’t shared on the initial release we did some digging and found the information on the MLS website under their Health & Safety Protocols.

Here is the info:

In addition to the screenings and testing described above, an MLS task force has worked with leading experts to create guidelines and best practices to help reduce risk and prevent the spread of COVID-19.

These include:

  • Wearing face coverings/face masks;
  • Social distancing;
  • General hygiene (Ex. avoid touching face, washing hands frequently, avoid sharing food, bottles, towels or equipment);
  • Cleaning and sanitization (disinfecting surfaces).

The Walt Disney World Resort Swan and Dolphin Hotel will be providing enhanced cleaning of all venues and enforcing appropriate capacity-management and other social distancing guidelines.

So this sounds like to me that these MLS Players will be staying at Disney’s Swan & Dolphin Resort during their return.

Recently we shared the news that the Swan & Dolphin will be closed till the end of July but according to the tournament schedule, it can run up until the middle of August. So there is a good chance we might see the closure of the Swan & Dolphin even longer than July.

In case you missed the news NBA teams will be contained to three specific hotels at Walt Disney World with nightly COVID-19 testing.
