1 Extra night - Luggage and Magical Express the day before flying

[Average Joes]

We are staying for 9 nights AKL (5) and Poly (4) in Sept (kids 7+10). I am debating booking a deal at SW that just got released that would save us enough to add a day at a Value. Can Magic Express take our luggage from the Poly the day before our flight or do we have to ship the luggage to the Value and give our luggage at the Value for Magical Express? This is one factor for us in deciding if leaving around 3:30 p.m. from the Poly is better than enjoying the Poly and leaving at 6:00ish a.m. the next day at a value. Not having time to use my boat when we return that weekend is another Cost difference is negligible.

They can only take it the day you’re leaving. So you won’t be able to use RAC because 6am is too early to send it by RAC.

I took a 7:20am flight recently and found the luggage lines to be negligible for my airline, especially since I was there soooo early since there was no traffic.

Thank you.

Flight is at 9:10 a.m. so I think we are good with RAC which starts at 5 a.m. It requires that you check in at least 3 hours pre-flight. You cannot check in more than 12 hours in advance. If we do this we'll just live out of the carry-ons and leave the luggage at Bell Service at the Value where it will be after being shipped from the Poly the day before.

That is what we do as well. Works out well and we can take full advantage of the prior day! Have a great trip!

That might not work. Luggage Assistance at the Value resorts is open 7 A.M. to 11 PM, I think. You need to be ready and waiting for the DME bus gotten minutes prior to your assigned time, which is the time the bus leaves. There's also a +/- 15 minute range from the three hours. Your pickup could be at 6:10, but it could range from 5:55 to 6:25.

I wouldn't add the day on, I would just leave from Poly as scheduled. I wouldn't want to move everything to the Value for one night.
