DME?? 3 people, arriving on two different days...

[goofy4tink]

Okay, I thought I was pretty conversant on the ways of DME. However, I have called CRO three times now to make my DME reservations. I arrive on Monday, May 15. My dh and dd arrive on Tuesday, May 16. We are at POP. You wouldn't think it would take an act of Congress to get my dh and dd on that darn bus!!! Yesterday, the CM took about 10 minutes, says he called DME directly in order to get it right. But, I just had a feeling that it wasn't. (The first CM, who I originally booked my room with told me there was no way we could arrive on two different days and use DME!). So, I called back just now to see how it was listed. Yes indeed...all three of us were arriving on Monday. I can just see my dh at 10:30 at night, being told he had no seats on the bus. So, the CM called DME again because her system wouldn't let her do this. After being on hold for 8 minutes or so, she came back and told me it was all set. That they had to work it out between DME and CRO!!! You would think there are some people that have to arrive on different dates but are staying together. When I called DME directly, they told me this was most certainly doable.
So...my question to you guys....have any of you had a similar experience? Just wondering what those luggage tags are going to say when they do get here. Don't even care since I'll have all the luggage with me. DH will have only his carryon, dd will have hers. I just want things to go smoothly at that time of night.

We will have a similar situation in July, only ours is even more complicated! DD , DH, and I will arrive on a friday night and stay just that one night at POFQ. We will then take the DCL bus to port for our seven day cruise on the magic. Fast forward one week, we come off ship and DCL bus brings us back to resort. This is where it gets interesting. We wll then be staying at BCV and DD's DBF will be arriving at MCO that afternoon. Hopefully, he will be able to do ME to BCV (the lady at member services felt this would not be a problem-we couldn't book yet cause we are still waiting for SW to release our return date!!) Then a few days later, we all need ME to bring us back to MCO! Again, the nice lady at MS felt- no problem- but like you I am a little concerned that everything will go as planned!
