And look at the airline meals!!! I remember those! You barely got seated and the stewardesses (there were no "flight attendants then!) Brought you an entire meal.
You will need to go to baggage claim and pick up your luggage, then bring it to the Magical Express. This link has the info:We have always stayed at POP and we know every in and out there is about how to handle our luggage, but this girls trip we are staying at CBRand I want to understand how it works at CBR.
My mom is 82 so I want to make sure I understand all this luggage stuff.
When we use MDE and if our flight lands before midnight, I understand they will deliver our luggage to our room a couple of hours later. BUT, if we end up with a flight that lands at midnight, getting to the resort after 1am, how would our luggage be handled? Would we need to get our luggage to our room? Will there be no one to help us?
Also, when we leave, just making sure I understand. The day we are leaving, we call bell service, we load our luggage on a shuttle and either walk or ride to the customs house, they will hold our luggage until our MDE pick up time? We have a CRT reservation at 8am on our last day, so we will have to leave the resort by 7-7:15am, how early can we get bell service for the luggage service and check in at custom house?
in advance!
The rooms themselves will be exactly the same, the only difference is location. So it really just depends on how important it is to you to be close to the main pool and food court. Personally, I would take the preferred room with FD, but my kids LOVE to swim and we have 2 pool days planned. If you plan to spend little time at the resort, the standard room is probably fine. There is a quiet pool and bus stop in every village, so you'll never be far from those. Good luck!
Thank you for your reply
I actually understand what we need to do at the airport. We have had to do this a couple of times and we are definitly trying to avoid it this time. 
Thank you for your reply
It is once we get to CBR how the luggage will be handled if we arrive so late. We are definitly looking for earlier flights, especially with my 82-year-old mama. At pop you just take your luggage with you and go straight to the room. At CBR, it is so spread out so I am wondering once we get to CBR with our luggage on the MDE so how do we get to our room with her luggage? Do the internal buses and Bell service still work that late to help us or will we have to walk with to our room at 1:30am toting our luggage? If that's the case, I may need to move my reservation. Lol. I can't imagine being assigned a room far from the custom house and having to push a wheelchair with my mama and toting luggage.
As I type this, I can't imagine Disney not providing bell service and assistance with luggage to our room just because we have a late arrival.
We had 5 peeps to a room with the Murphy bed, it worked out fine. (Adult DD slept on MB, and was quite comfy) if you really want to save the money, I would book CBR, and put the smaller of your DDs in the MB.Our ressie has all the fee's already figured in and the total cost at CBR is $3932. The total cost at POP with 2 rooms is $4715. Both includes the upcharge fee for adults. $783 total difference. That also includes the upgrade fee to the full service dining plan staying at POP. The single bathroom isn't a big deal for us. We have a cabin on some property that we have, 1 bathroom and it sleeps 10. We have been there many times for several days with 5+ people. We just take our turnWe are more worried about the murphy bed. Thank you for your response.
Can I ask why?? I've never stayed at CBR and I'm curious which one we would like better?
Martinique is one of the "preferred" buildings being closest to OPR, where the pool, food court, restaurant, shopping and pool bar is...
We have never asked for preferred. We have been given "Preferred" twice at no extra cost. We love Jamaica and Trinidad North.
