DisneyWorld Resort online check-in

Has anyone done the online check in yet? I was wondering how it went. It
sounds like it would be a quicker way to check in if it really works how
they say it is suppose to.

I'm not getting the point of online checkin. You still have to go to
the resort desk to pick up your resort ids, at the very least. What
does this process of "online checkin" actually save you? What parts
of the checkin process can be done online?

I'm assuming they will have your charge card processed and Key to the
World cards already printed up for you and your party. Your entire
package will be in the folder and you can pick it up in 30 seconds
instead of 5 minutes - plus whatever time you would have spent in line
waiting. I don't consider this a big deal but, it might be a nice
touch.

So... it's January. How/Where can I checkin online? Does the fact
that I booked via a Travel Agent mean I have to contact them to do it
for me?

Much obliged, Joe. See, I wish *that* was the response my TA had
given. :-P

When are you going Steve? You aren't going to be there when I'm there
in early February are you?
