Airline Check-In Service

[eporter66]

Wow - probably old news to a lot of you. We just got back (today) from BWV's, and had a great experience.

They now offer (for certain airlines - I know United & Delta participate) the option of having your bags checked and getting your boarding passes at the hotel.

We used this today and it made everything so much easier. All we had to do was go through security. We had an early flight out (9am), and got to the airport about 7:30, and got through security fairly quick.

I loved this feature - what a great way to continue to serve there guests

I agree, it is a great service. American is a participating airline as well. I think Continental is too.

My DH and I went went to WDW in April and I was so pleased to have this amenity added. I just loved it!!!! What a major convenience.

We used it to check out of the Beach Club Villas during 4th of July week. It worked flawlessly and reduced our stress flying home.

It's good to use if you can.

We love this service. It was a nice surprise for us back in May.

Let's hope it stays around.

We actually got back on Saturday, and the check-in service is wonderful! Besides the other airlines mentioned, you can also get the flight check-in thru NWA, TED, and Alaska airlines. The only thing is that you have to watch to see when they are open. My DD did not pay attention, and went at 4 pm to check in for an 8 pm flight, and they were closed! The hours were 5 am to 1 pm so she had to cart all her luggage onto the Magical Express bus, and lug it up to her ticketing counter.

We tried to use it last month when checking out of AKL, but it wouldn't check us in since the record showed as requesting an upgrade. We had for the outbound but not the return.

We used this at BCV in September. I was travelling with my 3 kids, but without DH. It was great!
