You’re ready to go. Good planner that you are, you made your advanced dining reservations at 180-days out, bought your tickets, know how to get a fastpass–you’ve even asked the neighbor kid to pick up your mail. So what’s left? Here’s a short checklist for those who are 24-hours from travel.
1. Verify that the pet sitter is still coming. I use a great pet sitter who I trust absolutely, but I always double check.
2. If you’re flying, print out your boarding pass.
3. Put your Magical Express paperwork in your carry-on bag or handbag. Do not pack it in your luggage! Add your Magical Express tags to your checked bags–less fussing when you check in.
4. Return books to the library and movies to the store.
5. If you haven’t already, make sure you have copies of your park tickets in case you lose them If you bought your tickets directly through Disney, lost tickets can be verified by the credit card you used, so take that with you even if you’re not going to use it.
6. If you’re staying at a Disney resort and you haven’t already, do your online check-in. It really speeds things up.
7. If you’ll be driving, get a roll of quarters. Central Florida has tons of toll roads, some of them with unmanned toll booths. Even if you’re planning on going directly to Disney and not leaving property, it’s easy to take a wrong turn and end up on a toll road. Better safe than sorry.
8. If your luggage will be going to your room via Magical Express and you won’t have access to it for a few hours, make sure you bring sunblock in your carry-on bag. Most brands come in 3 ounce sizes that you can take through airport security.
Chip recommends Bull Frog Sunblock!
9. Throw out or give away all the perishables from your refrigerator.
10. Make sure you have all your perscriptions filled and your insurance cards packed.
