Does DME have a limit to # of bags?

[Princess Steph]

I booked a vacation with southwest airlines vacations which is Mark Travel agency. I received my documents today and there were only 4 DME yellow tags, one for each person in our party. Now one reason for booking with Southwest is they allow up to 2 bags each. Since we need strollers and they count as checked baggage, I will probably have more then one bag each. I'm going to call Mark Travel, but want to have the correct info when I need to argue. How many DME tags does each person get, usually? Thanks

You can call and request more tags from DME. No problem getting more tags.

Don't set yourself up for a fight just yet...

ME only sends 1 tag per person. You can call and request more. It isn't a problem. There isn't a limit.

No, no limit but since most airlines are now charging for more than one bag per person DME started sending only one luggage tag per person to cut down on waste.

You can call the DME number in the booklet and request additional luggage tags.

OT but FYI on the stroller, if you want it at the airport at Orlando either gate check it (my preference) or check it through as luggage without the DME tag and pick it up yourself on the carosel. Otherwise you won't see the stroller until the bags are brought to your room. DME info says this can take up to 3 hours after check in and you may need/want the stroller prior to that.
