Magical Express and Carryon Suitcase

[MyNameisStitch]

Hi everyone!
I've got another question about my upcoming trip. I'm taking the Magical Express to and from my resort and i'm wondering what to do about my carryon. I don't check bags because of the way that I check in for flights so I always travel with my carryon suitcase. Now what do I do with my suitcase on the day that i'm departing? I'm only staying for one night so i'm on the earliest flight to Orlando and the latest flight out. Of course I don't want to wheel my suitcase around with me all day and I assume I have to check out of the resort in the morning so where does my bag go?

I'm sure Disney has planned for this and this will end up being an easy answer but I do worry about these things. I look at it as...might as well worry about these things now instead of worrying during my short stay at the Happiest Place on Earth

Just like every half-way decent hotel in the USA, Disney resorts allow you to store your bags with Bell Services during your check-out day. So before you leave for a park on your check-out day, bring your bag to Bell Services (or Luggage Assistance, if you're staying at a Value resort) and have them store it for you.

Before your DME bus pick-up time, go back to Bell Services to retrieve your bag. If they are busy, this could take a little while, so please plan accordingly. The DME buses tend to run on time, and they won't wait for you if you are delayed in getting your bags from Bell Services.

Just a thought - on the way home, you could use Disney's airport check in (if you are on a participating airline) and just check your bag for the return trip - then you wouldn't have any worries about retrieving it.

Awesome! Thats what I figured might be the case but I just wanted to check to make sure that way I can pack accordingly. Thank you!!

I would but I am flying Southwest which I don't think is a participating carrier and I don't know how it would work for me since I travel Non-Revenue and I don't have a reservation. But thank you! :wave:
