That version, which anyone can buy online before their trip, has a three-day waiting period. The military Memory Maker is a completely different offer and does not use that advance-purchase system.<\/p>\n<p>That means you can enjoy your first morning instead of standing in line at Guest Relations.<\/p>\n<p>For example, you could:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rope drop Magic Kingdom<\/li>\n<li>Take your family photo in front of Cinderella Castle<\/li>\n<li>Ride attractions with PhotoPass photos or videos<\/li>\n<li>Meet Mickey Mouse<\/li>\n<li>Purchase the military Memory Maker later that afternoon\u2014or even another day during your vacation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As long as those photos are linked to your My Disney Experience account and have not expired, they&#8217;ll be available for download after your military Memory Maker is purchased.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eef7ff; border-left: 6px solid #1f5d8b; padding: 15px; margin: 20px 0;\"><strong>STEVE RECOMMENDS:<\/strong> Don&#8217;t waste your first hour at Walt Disney World standing in a Guest Relations line just to buy Memory Maker. Rope drop is one of the best times to experience the parks with the shortest waits and some of the best PhotoPass opportunities. Buy your military Memory Maker later that day\u2014or better yet, on your arrival evening at a convenient park entrance or Guest Relations location\u2014and start your vacation enjoying the parks instead of running errands.<\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Best_Time_to_Purchase_Military_Memory_Maker\"><\/span>The Best Time to Purchase Military Memory Maker<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The easiest strategy is to purchase it on your <strong>arrival evening<\/strong> or during a convenient break instead of adding another task to your first park morning.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"For_EPCOT_and_Skyliner-Area_Resorts\"><\/span>For EPCOT and Skyliner-Area Resorts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Guests staying near EPCOT or along the Disney Skyliner route can visit the <strong>International Gateway ticket window or Guest Relations area<\/strong> near the entrance between EPCOT and the Crescent Lake resorts.<\/p>\n<p>This can be especially convenient for guests staying at:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Disney\u2019s BoardWalk Inn and Villas<\/li>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Beach Club Resort and Villas<\/li>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Yacht Club Resort<\/li>\n<li>Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin<\/li>\n<li>Walt Disney World Swan Reserve<\/li>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Riviera Resort<\/li>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Caribbean Beach Resort<\/li>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Pop Century Resort<\/li>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Art of Animation Resort<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can combine the purchase with an arrival-evening walk around Crescent Lake, an EPCOT visit, or dinner in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/blog\/walt-disney-worlds-boardwalk-dining-and-entertainment-area\/\">BoardWalk area<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"For_Magic_Kingdom_and_Monorail-Area_Resorts\"><\/span>For Magic Kingdom and Monorail-Area Resorts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Guests staying at a Magic Kingdom-area resort can stop at the <strong>Magic Kingdom entrance ticket windows or Guest Relations<\/strong> without visiting the park, or before or after visiting the park.<\/p>\n<p>This is convenient for guests staying at:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Contemporary Resort and Bay Lake Tower<\/li>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Polynesian Village Resort and Villas<\/li>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Grand Floridian Resort &amp; Spa and Villas<\/li>\n<li>Disney\u2019s Wilderness Lodge and Villas<\/li>\n<li>Shades of Green<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Guests staying at Shades of Green can take the resort bus to the Transportation and Ticket Center and continue to Magic Kingdom, or make the purchase during their first visit to another theme park.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"During_a_Midday_or_Evening_Break\"><\/span>During a Midday or Evening Break<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You can also take your first morning\u2019s photos and purchase Memory Maker later when ticket-window lines are shorter or when you are already passing the park entrance.<\/p>\n<p>The best location is not necessarily the first park you visit.
