DTD checkin - Virgin

[philwalker_wba]

I seen this metioned a few times, We fly out four weeks today from Manchester, for our return whats the benefits of checking in at DTD.

You can drop your luggage off early and get your tickets and then you will have more time to go round the park.

You get to dump your bags, check-in and enjoy your last day :thumbs: It's a great system and when you arrive at the airport you go straight through to departures.

[Vikki]

I don't think you can beat it!

[Melfuzz]

It can cost you though.

[PaulaK]

It's free if you're with Virgin Holidays. :)

So on my last day we get up, go to DTD and check in with Virgin, dumping the bags and then offf to the park. I sort of expected to have to meet the van we booked to take our paerty of ten to the airport at the hotel, should I just arrnage to meet at one of the parks.

How late wiould you then leave to get to Orlando Int for an 18.15 flight if youve already checked in.

Last thing. Does the check in get busy if so at what time.

[PaulaK]

We arrive at the airport about 2 hours before but we drop our car back in that time too. I'd say leave at least 90 minutes to get through security and to buy your duty free. Security sometimes has quite a long queue.

The earlier you get to DTD the better. We like to be there within half an hour of it opening.

I'm not sure about your transportation company, but most will accommodate special requests if you ask them.

[Vikki]

Yes, we got there early as well, I believe it opens at 8.30am.....could be wrong on that though.

And if you think about it, the earlier you do your checkin at DTD, the faster you can get to the parks :D
