Linking Flights to Travel Packages

[MagicallyMom]

How close to your trip can you link your flight info to your Disney vacation and still have your bags delivered to your room?

I was pricing flights and if we booked non refundable tickets for next week, we'd save HEAPS, but I wouldn't want to do that months early because things happen...But I do want luggage tags to show up with my magic bands. Please help?

I'm pretty sure that the luggage tags don't come with the magic bands, but at any rate, you can get the luggage tags if you book DME as little as 10 days in advance. You don't actually need to have tags to use the delivery service, though - you can just go to the DME counter and give them your claim ticket.

The tags you get with magic bands are decorative luggage tags. Yellow DME tags come in a packet from DME separately.

Oh! I didn't realize. I thought the decorative ones were helpful for the ME people. Thanks!

You can book DME anytime prior to your trip but if you want the luggage delivery tags I would allow at least 3 weeks so they can be shipped. I never have my flights when I book my resort so I always book DME online - its quick and easy!

I've always read that you can get the tags as little as 10 days out, but as I said in my previous post, they're not necessary for using the delivery service.
