Can you post recent expereince with ME and luggage times?

Please only share from past 2 weeks since new travel restrictions. Interested in how long of a wait until ME bus leaves MCO? Were the lines to get ME bus voucher at counter very long?

Most importantly, how long is it taking to get your luggage after you arrive at the resort?

Thanks!
 
You can try a search. A few posters said the lines at the RAC were a lot longer. Guests can't carryon 100% of their bags so the might as well check them at the resort and avoid long lines at MCO.

The travel restrictions shouldn't have an effect on the number of guests who use DME. It might slightly increase the amount of checked bags but my guess is that might just mean the luggage trucks get dispatched quicker.

I'd be afraid any recent information you get might reflect the influx of free dining guests more than any airport releated issues.
 
Arrived 3:30pm on a Tuesday, went right down to Level 1A, short line at counter, took maybe 5 minutes total, wait for the bus to leave was about 15 minutes, we were checking into our hotel at 4:35-4:40pm. Check in at the All Stars took about 20 minutes total, we were into our room at 5:05pm and I'm not sure what time the bags came. At 10:30pm when we returned to our room they were there.

Return they put us on a 12:30noon bus for our 3:30 flight. So it was still 3 hours ahead of flight time, no change from before. We were all checked in and sitting/waiting at the gate for our flight at about 2:20pm so we had an hour to spare.
