DME and Independence Air...Am I correct?

[Sirius]

It looks like DME will take me to the hotel but will not check my luggage on the return flight on Independence Air. Is that correct?

Flying I.A. will save me at least $110 which would pay for a Towncar or Mears.
(2 adults: TYS to MCO)
Independence $370 (non-stop)
Delta $530 (non-stop)
USAir $480 (1 stop)

Please see my answer in the thread Flying Southwest, Can we use ME??

The same answer applies to Independence Air.

Thanks Horace. So basically, I am correct. As of right now, I will not be able to check my luggage for the return flight with DME at my resort.

You are correct. You will not be able use Resort Airline Check-in to get your boarding passes and to check your luggage for your return flight at your resort. Instead, you'll have to bring your luggage with you on the Magical Express motorcoach when returning to the airport for your flight home. You can check your bags and get your boarding pass at the airport.

Other than that, you can enjoy all benefits of Magical Express.
