What should I wear when I arrive?

You will be required to meet Disney look guidelines when you arrive, including the Disney Look guidelines for hairstyles. Additional questions you may have regarding grooming guidelines are covered in "The Disney Look" section of this site.

When do I check in?

You should check in between 9 a.m. and 12 p.m.

Can I check in early?

Unfortunately, we can't check you in before your arrival date. However, you can call the Disney Reservation Center at 407-W-DISNEY (407-934-7639) for accommodations at any Walt Disney World® resort hotel. If you do not wish to stay in a Disney resort, you may want to locate a hotel that is on or near State Road 535 or Highway 192.

My plane does not arrive until after 12 p.m. on my arrival date. Is that OK?
