but they have nothing in common.
I dont think the company that handles the bags at MCO or other airports is TSA.
their job is security, not bag handling.

I tend to agree, strongly. TSA it all depends on the team. Some are great, Chicago-Midway fantastic. Chicago-Ohare not so much. Orlando a toss up depending on the team. Disney is the same thing. Depending on who the heck you are dealing with. I've had enough issues at WDW and our initial MDE Magic Bands linking park tickets was worse than any TSA experience we've ever had.

Me<------I'm not trusting Disney Magical Express CMs to truck over to baggage claim and find my bags. I'd go get them and take them with me to the bus and have them in hand when I arrive at the hotel, the plus of having to fetch them. Them not sending the yellow tags kinda shows me Disney is off their game at times.

I also agree with the the apple and oranges thing. Governmental Employees vs Private Sector especially when dealing with National Security hard to compare. As much as I wonder about TSA Security I really cannot rave about the Security Bag Check entering the Parks. Sure they might find a weapon in your back pack but what if you have a weapon on your person, I'd give that to TSA over Disney.

Ready for a big surprise?! Here it comes: I'm going to WDW on an early morning flight tomorrow!! :joyfull: I'll be back Thursday night.

I didn't say anything sooner, because it was touch and go (for weeks) as to whether I could travel at this time. Seemed like everything wrong kept piling up recently: extra busy at work, battling with insurance companies over car repairs (another driver backed into our car), and just trying to manage the budget.

And then when I was sure I could finally pull this off, two days ago, I had a minor injury to my eye! Literally, up to this morning, I was debating whether to postpone the whole thing (my airline tickets are good for a year, but I'd probably lose one night's fee for the hotel). But by mid-morning today, my eye was a lot better. So, WDW, here I come! :happy:

Just pulled my suitcase out of the closet, so I suppose I should probably start packing soon. That might be a good idea.

Oh, to @seahawk7 , and @Andrew C , I hope you both have a great trip with your families. To everyone else, I don't have a smartphone or anything that will keep me "connected" while I'm down there, so I'll say so long for now, until Friday. Note: I did try to find a disposable digital camera at Walgreens today, but they didn't have any. I wanted to take some pictures for you. Maybe I'll try to find one in a gift shop at my hotel, or even a film camera, because maybe the film pictures might be able to get scanned after they're developed, when I get back. I'll see what I can find down there. (Hubby said I could take his digital, but it's an expensive one, and I didn't want anything to happen to it--I'd much prefer just a cheap disposable). As usual, he hates flying, and WDW is not his "thing". So every year I go, he stays home with the dog. He said they're both happy though, because the two of them can make a big mess, and not have to clean up anything until just before I come back! :D ) Anyway, twice a day, I call home and give him the full update of the day's activities.

CHOW PUPPIES!

This is why skipping pages of posts in effort to catch up is a bad thing!

Hope you are having a wonderful time! :D

That one makes me tighten up pretty badly. I have to hold my breath and run through that pavilion. :(

I wish they would consolidate their perfume shops to one or two locations. Maybe to the world traders shop at World Showcase's entrance. I cannot be the only person who is bothered by the fragrances. And it's in so many countries. Italy, Norway, UK, France...some of them are okay, but I pretty much skip Italy and Norway now because of it.

I don't have any allergy/breathing problems but I avoid the perfume areas of Norway and Italy. :hungover:
