luggage ME, I take taxi?

[williamson_ja]

I am wondering if I can check my luggage into ME for the home trip at our hotel, have it go to the airport, etc. that way, but have me and my family take a taxi to the airport. I don't want to leave the parks, etc. as early as ME takes you there. Our flight isn't until 5:00 p.m. and I'm thinking I can get at least 1/2 a park day in if I don't have to ride the bus home.
Also, how much does it cost to take a taxi to the airport??

As long as you are on a participating airline, you check your baggage early in the morning at the RAC at your resort. Your luggage will be taken right away from the resort to the airport far ahead of you.

Then you can opt to take a taxi or ME. My flight leaves at 6:00 pm, so we don't have to be back at the resort until 3:00 pm, which means we leave the parks around 2:00 or so. I think by then I will have had enough.

If not on a participating airline, then you still have to deal with your luggage. You can take it to baggage services and come back for it. It really wouldn't save you that much time????

You didn't say if you were on a participating airline or not.

I think the current taxi fare is $3.35 or $3.85 for the first mile, and $2.20 for each additional mile. The airport is about 25 miles from Walt Disney World; estimated fare would not include 'wait' time at traffic lights or traffic jams. I don't know if it includes tolls or not.
