Check In Wait Times

[disneytopdog]

I should be arriving to the All-Star Sports on Sunday Sept 24 at 11:00AM. I am sure the place will be packed with people checking out from the weekend. Do they have seperate CHECK IN & CHECK OUT lines? Or do I just get in line with the masses that are checking out?

You get in line with the masses. Most people though are already "checked out" unless they have charges that need to be paid and they didn't leave a credit card number. You should be okay

To further 'splain....

When you check in, you are given the option (which many people use) of placing a credit card on your room for "express checkout." That means that at 6AM on the day you check-out, they'll hang an envelope from your room's door handle. That envelope contains your "bill" (really more of an invoice, since all the charges have been applied to your card already). As long as everything's in order (they don'ty accidentally show that you bought a blimp and charged it to your room), you just skate out the door and head for the house.

So... not as many folks fighting to check out at the front desk as you might think. Having said that, it's still all in the timing. If you get there right as a Magical Express bus comes in, it may take a while. The longest I've ever had to wait was about 20 minutes, but that was at Pop Century when all the locals were trying to get a place to ride out Hurricane Ivan (which missed, by the way).

Thanks my flight gets in at 10:15a...from what I read ME should take about an hour.....Check in hopefully 30 minutes. Store my carry on with the front desk and be in line at Mission Space by NOON...sound dooable????

I have never actually gone to the desk to check out. I always use the express check out. It saves the times of standing in line. You just need to be out of your room by 11am, but you can leave your bags with bell service if your not leaving until later in the day.

That's probably reasonable -- sometime betwween 12 and 1p
