We will be staying a couple of days at Old Key West "after" our cruise. What is the process when taking Disney's buses? We put our luggage outside our room the night before and then I assume we pick it up the next morning to take through customs. What do we do with it afterwards, carry it with us to the bus? And if that is the case, then what? Is the luggage off-loaded when we are or do they deliver it later to the room?

Also, do we have to board the bus at a set time or can we board any available bus between "x" and "z" times?

Any information/tips are much appreciated.

You bring your luggage and they will give it to you right away as you get off the bus at your resort.

Thanks! Do you know if we have to reserve a time to catch the bus or just walk off the ship and take the next available bus?

As you disembark, they will assigned you to a certain bus and when it's full, you'll leave.

You probably already know but you have to book your shuttle in advance (by phone) and it's 36$/pp (unless the price has changed since I took it in 2017).

Yes, you will take your luggage through customs, and it will be loaded onto the bus that's going to OKW. Upon arriving at the resort, your luggage will be offloaded. If your room is not ready, but you want to go to the parks, you can leave your luggage with Bell services and it'll be delivered to your room later.

Over the past year or so, the buses to the resorts start running at 9 AM. You would want to verify this upon boarding your cruise.
 
You put your bags out, don't bother carrying them off. Take your time in the morning, get breakfast. Buses don't leave for WDW until 9am (they run continuously to the airport). You collect your bags in the terminal and then take them through customs to the bus. At WDW you can leave them with bell services so you can go to the park or whatever. Once your room is ready, call them to deliver your bags. Pretty easy. The worst part is waiting until 9am for the bus to leave.
