Luggage Question(s)...

Howdy all!

For the first time in forever (joke intended)... we are using an airline other than Southwest - and not by choice I might add. My sister and mother are panicked that they won't be able to carry on their normal sized carry on (not the excessive size carry on you always see people insist will fit - you know who you are lol) as they read on the United website the dimensions for carry-ons. I keep telling them the overhead bins on a United 737-800/900 are the same size as on a Southwest 737-800/900... and we have never had any problems in the past... but... what can you do lol.

That has sparked a second conversation involving checking a second bag. But, our final vacation package trip documents from AAA only has one bar coded luggage tag (the yellow one MCO and DME use for routing to your resort) per person. How do you get an additional tag? Surely Disney doesn't restrict the amount of bags you can have delivered from the airport do they?

Next question - if they opt to ship a package or box of bulky clothes to the resort (my sister is part lizard as she gets cold any time the temp dips below 80...), how did you guys do that? How do you label the box you ship to the resort? What is the most economical way to ship those?

If you need additional ME tags, just call and ask them to send more. They used to send 2 PP, but nowadays few people check that many bags.

If your trip is imminent, you can still check that extra bag. When you get to the ME desk at MCO, just give them to your airline luggage tag info, and they'll have someone retrieve your bag and get it to your resort for you.

Or you could go to the baggage carousel at MCO and bring the bag to the bus yourself.

we also get a lot of extra luggage tags. SImply call Disney and they don't think twice about sending them out. Get a few more than you think you will use just in case. SOmetimes trying to stay in that weight limit for luggage requires and extra bag or two! If you don't use them you just toss them out...no issue at all
