Happily, our DME tags just arrived! :banana: :banana: Info was correcct :banana: :banana: The surprise is that we're not leaving until October 17th! Don't get me wrong; I'm not complaining (it makes the trip seem even closer :yay: ). I'm just surprised. In all the times we've used DME, the tags didn't arrive until about 3 weeks before departure. Does anyone know if this is a new DME policy, or is it just a fluke. :confused3
 
If I recall correctly, they now mail both ME docs and package docs out at 45 days. :)
 
We're arriving at MCO on 10/4/06 and received our ME booklet and tags over a week ago.

Funny part is we got two envelopes on the same day, both with a booklet and tags. Both sets of tags had our room only confirmation number on it,and they each had another number above that. The second number was different on one set of tags. Other than that, the names and dates, and resort were all correct.
 

We arrive 10/18! I am so excited to go home a check the mail.... I bet my packet doesn't come for weeks now! LOL

Nothing like getting that packet in the mail, is there? Looks like I'll be getting mine in the next week or so....leave on the 21st!!!
 
We are leaving on October 13th. All we got was a little envelope with the DME luggage tags, not a big packet of stuff like I was expecting . We should be fine to check in at the airport and the hotel as long as we have our ID's and reservation information. I thought we were supposed to get a free meal voucher at Planet Hollywood at least...Should I be expecting more stuff?

That is all I got as well. I am expecting the other stuff to come soon, too!

Are you sure these are the DME luggage tags and not just WDTC luggage tags? DME luggage tags are sticky yellow paper, and are bound as pages within a DME booklet. The tags have barcodes and a bunch of pre-printed information such as your name, reservation number, etc. Is this what you got?
 
The ones I got are the sticky yellow kind, they say AK on them.
