Your missing that obvious point that you had to leave one day earlier to arrive at the same time. And the same on the return. It's at least 2 days of your life, perhaps more depending on where you live. That was the point, not that you get more vacation time, but that you lose less time for...

Um, that's exactly what you would have done...or something like that. You're simply putting on more miles that contributes to all the things that cost money on a car. Pay now, or pay later. If you drive, you pay earlier than if you didn't drive. It's simple math. Uh, yea, that's the...

Sure it does. If the rule is that you can't make a claim after leaving the airport because that means you didn't make an attempt to retrieve you bag before it could get stolen from a carousel, then the yellow tag factored in would means that it never reached the carousel anyway, it couldn't get...

Yep, a lot of people have that attitude. I know some people like that. Unless your car breaks down. Pay me now, or pay me later...either way, that repair is comin' just a bit earlier now. If you would like to eat at Subway for every meal, you've reduced your travel meal costs a bit, but it's...

It's not "again". You quoted an older post then added a comment for dramatic effect. Yes, we've established this several times now. DME takes your bags from MCO to Disney, and RAC takes your bags from Disney to MCO. Other than the fact that they do basically the same thing in opposite...

You've pointed out the one combination of weak spots that, when aligned, could lead in a bad result for someone not informing DME of their arrival. Worst case scenario here, your bag hits the carousel, and is stolen. (But, this could happen to DME users who DO ride the bus. You bag is missed...

Well, again I'm speculating here, I'm not an airline official (lest someone accuse me of giving bad advice or something :rolleyes:) but I would say that a bag that has been concluded by the airline as "missing" a plane to some destination will default to going to that destination on the tag at...

Well, since I started the statement with "I believe", that would indicate that it's my speculation and conclusion based on the situation, which was explained in the following sentence that you didn't include here. My question to you is...do you have any reason to think it's not a logical and...

Some people have different names on their ID than they may use in everyday life, such as hyphenated last names that are present on IDs but not commonly used, or vice versa. Others may go by their middle name often, but their ID shows a first name and middle initial. Othersmay have a name so...

I believe the reason for the requirement of filing a claim before leaving the airport is to prove you were really at the carousel looking for a bag that could have been stolen. But if your bag never makes it to a carousel because it's yellow tagged, then that rule may not apply, as DME is simply...

I've never had any flight changes with them. That's just my experience. I can tell that they have a large fleet of various types of aircraft, and depending on your airport you may be on a smaller plane that takes you to a hub like CLT or PHL first. PHI seems to have more tiny planes, at least...

I believe so. But you may have to pay more money to get on the other flight if it costs more, and they may give you the option to use the EBCI funds to go towards covering the difference....I'm not really sure about that. You certainly won't lose the money you paid for EBCI if you switch and...

Well, obviously the owner of the bag would figure this out when either receiving less that their total of bags, or simply not receiving their single bag and then calling to ask. At this point they probably get a response from Disney that you didn't check into DME at the airport so we didn't...

Which part was incorrect and why didn't you point that out to other readers if you were concerned about it? We seem to be in agreement that the OP does not need to worry, saying basically the same things....yet you say I'm posting incorrect info? I'm just saying you can always call the airline...

I've always paid for bags at RAC and have never been told differently. Most recent time was in February, but perhaps they've changed this since.

That wasn't being discussed. The question wasn't about arriving at MCO via a car, or bus, or donkey for that matter, while your luggage somehow arrived via a plane. (not even sure how that scenario could exist). The question was about what happens when you report to DME and tell them that you...

Except that isn't a part of how it works, that's a nuance of how Disney says it works. But as two others besides myself have clearly pointed out and explained.....it's simply not true. Thus, not part of my description.. I haven't encouraged anyone to do anything. Please show a single post...

:thumbsup2 :worship: Exactly.

Except they do essentially the same job in opposite directions. Other than that they are completely different operations....so similar in fact they share the same vehicles. Nothing to see here....move on....nothing to see here.... Key word, entities. They are different entities, performing...

Anyone bothering to carefully read my post won't think that, and if you had, you would not be quoting me then making this statement. They don't have the same name, so they can't be considered the same service, but they are both offered by Disney and do almost the same thing in opposite...
