When you put it like that, now I'm starting to consider not using the yellow tags. Our flight is supposed to arrive at 4:10pm. I thought that was decently early, but I don't want to wait for my luggage to arrive at 10 either! Especially since we'll have our 5 year old with us, and it will be past our bedtimes. And not to mention if there is a delay of any kind with my flight.
So if we decide to collect our own luggage at baggage claim, we should NOT put the yellow tags on our luggage right? Then we would just head to baggage claim like we would for any other trip? And then we take our luggage to the DME desk? Hmm, I might just do that. I'm one of those people who can't settle in a hotel room until I am unpacked. And please remind me, we don't use the yellow tags when we are leaving Disney do we? We just leave our luggage with the hotel, and they ensure it gets to the airport?
Sorry for the questions; it's been 7 years since we've gone. Thanks!
Our flight landed at 4:45PM and we had to call because our luggage was not in our room at 10:50 when we came back from Disney Springs. It came within 15 minutes of calling so I'm assuming they were delivering luggage at our resort and they prioritized getting ours to us since we requested it, otherwise I'm sure it could have been another hour (or more).
Just proceed as usual if you do not use the yellow tags (like any non-Disney trip, check in and drop them off at the airport where they will put on regular white bag tags) and pick them up from the baggage claim. You can then bring them on the DME with you! When you leave, if your airline is part of the airline check in, you bring them to the desk (not sure how it is at POP but at AKL it was next to bell services) and they will print your boarding pass and take care of tagging the bags and getting them to the airport. It was very seamless for us last week!
