RFID Payment System Comes to the Contemporary

Radio Frequency ID, or RFID, payment terminals recently started being tested at Disney's Contemporary Resort.

Under this new system, guests staying at a resort will be issued a "Key to the World" resort card. The card will let the guest "pay" for an item, say, at the gift shop with the purchase being added to the guest resort bill. In addition to being a new means to pay for items throughout a resort, the RFID cards will also be equipped to open a guest's room.

Walt Disney World's Bay Lake

Across the Water Bridge from the Seven Seas Lagoon and behind Disney's Contemporary Resort is the beautiful Bay Lake. A natural body of water with two small islands Bay Lake is about one mile across and 35 feet deep.

Walt believed that it was an attractive feature that would add amenities and value to his guests.
