Split Stay & DME

[Bowler Hat Girl]

Has anyone ever done a split stay and used DME? I got my Mickey mail today, and it's fine for the first leg of the trip but not the return. There's no departing flight info, and the vouchers only have my first resort on them. Will I get a second set of vouchers w/ my departing info, or is this a mistake? Should I call? Thanks!

No need for the vouchers for the return trip. Since they don't have the time on them, they will leave you a return trip letter on your door anyways. Just hand the letter to the bus driver and you will be all set.

I love the way Disney makes it so easy!

It might be worth calling to confirm DME has the return flight and your second reservation on their system. 1-866-599-0951

You can wait until you're actually there, as long as you call a day or two before departure you'll be fine. The front desk can print off a new DME letter if you've called too late for them to get one delivered [if that's the case, DME will give you a confirmation number the Resort front desk can use to call up the letter].

As long as your second reservation is also at an on-site Disney Resort you'll be fine.

Quick update, in case this helps anyone else. I did get a separate DME booklet, tags, and vouchers for the second resort/departure of the trip. I did call, and they alerted me to the fact that my flight number was no longer valid. (My flight numbers, times, and seats have all changed without them telling me--thanks a lot, United!) It was great that DME at least gave me a heads-up that something wasn't right.

But the takeaway here is that if you're doing a split stay and are using DME to get to one hotel and to leave from a different one, you'll probably get two separate bits of Mickey mail!

Split stays are great--I just usually do it when driving, not flying. I'm sure this won't be the last time though!

they will also transfer evrything from one resort to the next...even contents in the frig...if you're staying at a one bedroom villa..

I can confirm this. Just received DME mail for our arrival at POR, and a second DME mail for our departure from the Poly.
