Will hotel hold bags after check-out time?

Will the hotel hold our bags until we are scheduled to be picked up by ME?
We are staying at POFQ in Dec and check out time is 11:00 am. Our SW flight departs at 3:30 pm--I am guessing ME will pick us up at about 12:30 pm.

Absolutely - once you check-in for your return trip to the airport on ME the bellhops will take your bags for you, you won't see them again until you arrive at your home airport. If you want your carry-ons held for you, just tell them which ones they are, they go in a separate back room.

They sure will. We were just there in June and our flight didn't depart until 6:30pm. ME didn't pick us up until 3:30. They tag your bags and give you a stub and you claim them when you need them.

Another thing you can do is call Housekeeping on your departure morning to ask for a later check-out - we did this at POFQ and were able to have the room until noon. Older DD was able to sleep in while younger DD and I ate at Poly and did 1 last ride and Photopass shopping in MK.

With SW, you'll have to physically take your bags to the bag-check. ME doesn't handle them for you in the same way they do with other airlines. We had no problems with it tho - just made sure we arrived back at the bag check (which, at POFQ is in the front, to the right of the center glass entrance, under the covered patio looking thing) in time for them to retrieve our bags and the ME bus to arrive.
