Anyone done the online check-in? I have never tried it, but I am thinking about doing it this time. Just wondering if anyone would care to share their experience with it. Pros? Cons?

I never did it because you can't put in room requests and I always have a couple. I like to approve the room I'm getting before hand but that's just me!Quote:

Plus, I know they are trying to get arriving guests in rooms ASAP, which is generally desirable, but I personally am willing to wait until later in the day if something more to our liking is coming open. By letting them know that I am not in a hurry and would rather not take the room they have open right then, I have been able to get my preferred area.Quote:

I am thinking that the main advantage to online check in would be that it could potentially save time upon arrival at the resort. They already have the credit card, etc info and the packets are more or less ready.
Exactly how I feel....I like looking at where they are putting me and also if they gave me my request! :DQuote:

I did the online check-in at Pop last Sept. but still went thru check-out because I wanted a different room. The CM gave me the exact room number I asked for.
That is wonderful that you were able to get the exact room you requested! Am assuming you requested it prior to arrival?Quote:

I showed the CM where I wanted to be (50's section, facing the lake, top floor and end of hall) and got room 3436, which was everything I wanted.Quote:
