Disney Room Key & Park Hopper Pass

One thing we really liked when staying in a Disney resort is the room key. Your room key can be programmed to also act as your park hopper pass AND a room charge card. So you get into the parks and also charge food or merchandise anywhere around the parks or resorts. This is very useful for those who would rather not carry around credit cards and cash.

Of course you'll need a credit card on file with the hotel, and you can also sometimes exceed the daily charge limit if you pick up the lunch or dinner tab for your large party.

Just keep that card AWAY from your cell phone. Or else it will demagnetize and you won't be charging or gaining access to your room or the parks. And this can happen at the worst times.

Other than that, it's a huge convenience.
