Disney's Magical Express -- Luggage Tag Info

[ahecht]

They asked me for names of everyone on the reservation, the reservation number, dates of arrival, arrival airlines and flight numbers, dates of departure, departure airlines and flight numbers.

I just called 1-866-599-0951 and I got through to DME.

[Mufasa&Simba]

We got our tags and instructions in the mail today! It looks pretty simple so I think we'll do alright. Everything is official now and all booked- hard to believe!

Read all 38 pages, and didn't see this question...

DW, DS and I leave Tuesday. Can the two of them ride the DME while I rent a car and make a grocery stop? I was afraid Disney could require all persons listed to be present before getting on the bus.

Yes, you can do it that way. You'll have no problems from Disney on that one.

Wow, that was fast!

DW wants to ride in comfort while her beast of burden does all the work. She likes to stroll to a destination, I like to move like running back headed for the endzone. This plan works for both of us.

While I do have my voucher and tags, my sister did not receive hers; we leave Friday and we have people wathcing the mail at all three addresses (hers, mine, and our cousins) that the hotel has, as we're unsure of which one they will show up at (mine went to my cousins, for some reason).

Opinions Wanted: If she doesn't get the mail, should she go tag-less, or should I put one of the two tags I recieved on her luggage?
I tend to be slightly paranoid, convinced that what can go wrong, will go wrong, and so I just wanted the trusty opinions of my fellow DISers to put me at east!

Thanks all!

There will be one packet for the primary name on the reservation. So....if you made the reservation for all of you, there will be one info packet, which should go to you, with all the vouchers/tags in it. If each person made their own resort reservation, then each room will get their own packet....if you follow me.
So....if your sister does not have tags, you most certainly can put one of your extra tags on her bags. As long as you are all going to the same resort that will work. Then, you will have to distribute the bags upon arrival. Now...if your sister doesn't have her voucher as well, that's not a problem. When she gets to the DME counter, they can print her up a new one.
I would just doublecheck to make sure that everyone who should be on the DME reservation, is on the reservation. Give DME a call just to make sure.

When are we supposed to get our tags??? I called and told the CM when our flight was (in early December) about a month and a half ago (at least!), and I haven't received tags yet....

Thanks! Yes, we booked seperately- however we are at the same resort, and requested adjoining rooms.
I will most definately call DME to make sure that she is on the reservation.

Thank-You very much for your response!

You won't get your DME packet until about 45 days before you leave. No need to start worrying now. You can start looking for your packet around the beginning of November.

If you booked seperately you should each get a packet for those on each reservation. For instance....the Smith family and the Jones family are heading to WDW together. They are each booking a room, but want to be as close to each other (either connecting or adjoining). Mrs. Smith makes her reservation at the resort for her group of 3. Mrs. Jones books her resort for her group of 4. Each one of them should get a DME packet for their group....Mrs. Smith will get a packet with vouchers for her group, while Mrs. Jones gets her packet for her group. Each packet will have a voucher and 2 luggage tags for each person booked in that particular room.
I would have your sister call and make sure her reservation includes DME.

I just recieved my ME tags and vouchers. The tags are correct

My question is related to the vouchers. I have called Disney with ALL of my flight information multiple times (it's changed). However, the voucher booklet does not list the flight information and says I should call DME to update it. What's the deal? Do I REALLY need to call? I know that they have my info, I've seen it on my Online Reservation and had CMs confirm it with me.
