May 27th Disney Pack Watch

Meg: Nope you'll get another copy of that to sign and such on one of your first days there (you spend a few hours filling out paperwork... EXCITING!)

 

I didn't get an email about a desk to go to, but when I sent in my flight info. they said they were going to send out another email about what to do when we get to the airport. I never got it though..
Where is the desk supposed to be? Just in case there's no one at the baggage claim, we can go look for the desk...

 

Here's what the email said...

What documents do I need to bring with me?

Prior to boarding your flight or arriving by car to the United States, you MUST have the following documentation. Please pack these items in your carry on luggage as you will need this information upon arrival.

* Passport with visa stamp*
* Original DS2019 Form (J-1 visa holder only, Q visa holders do NOT need this form) - VERY IMPORTANT (a photocopy is not acceptable)
* One photocopy of the following passport information:
o Visa stamp*, information page(s) to include: passport number, expiry date, photo, and your signature

Where do I go when I arrive in Orlando?
