Everyone goes through bagcheck?

[Malcon10t]

ROFL! Yep, everyone goes through --- bags or not. I am laughing because I have a friend who never has a bag when he goes to Disneyland. And it drives him crazy that there is no "no bag" line. I used to hear about it a LOT from him.



This is EXACTLY what happened! I was going to write a very similar reply, but Malcon10t did it so well, there is no need.

Yes, at DLR, everyone goes through the bag check.

Same reason we don't have an AP only line.. (Besides the fact that half of everyone is an AP anyway...) "Well, I have an AP, and they are with me..." "I am going to upgrade to APs, so can we use this line anyway?" "I am bringing my nephew/niece/grandchild/neighbors kid, but I have an AP..."

When they've done the no-bags line in the past, it usually ends up with a longer line because they're constantly having to stop people and put them through to the other lines.

Honestly, it takes like two minutes. If it were a 30 minute line, I could see two lines. A shorter line to encourage people to come bagless. For a two minute wait, though, yeah, I'll wait.

Huh. 2 minutes? I've never had to wait more than 30 seconds. I guess we really do go in low season.

We were entertained while we waited in the bag check line when they opened a "No Bags Line" last Christmas. First, one lady with a loaded down stroller didn't think she and her munchkins needed to go through the bag check despite having a stroller full of bags because "it's a stroller." Then there was the couple who felt they should go through the no bags line because he didn't have a bag, and she was with him, so her back pack shouldn't count. And the lady who thought she she be able to go through no bags because she just had a "little purse". (It was a clutch.) All that in the space of maybe 4-5 mins. Yep, people can't follow rules so we don't have a "No Bags" line.

We saw this last Christmas too. I swear, it's a few bad apples (or entitled people) who ruin it for everyone else.

The only time we've ever waited more than a minute was when we were behind a gentleman who was arguing with security - saying that it's against his right to privacy to show the inside of his bag.

It takes all kinds...

We just got back from 3 days at DL and DCA and went through bag check several times. We never waited more than about 40 seconds. What's the big deal? So you don't have a bag, good then you get through faster.
