This question may have been answered before but I can't seem to find the thread. How does one go about using ME without having any checked bags? I am assuming that upon arrival, just go directly to the ME area at the Orlando Airport. And at the resort on check-out day, just store the carry-ons at the valet until it's time for ME to depart for the airport? Do the buses allow carry-ons?
 
Yes. The buses don't have overhead bins or luggage shelves. The carryon bags that go in the overhead bins in your plane wind up going under the bus. The driver stows the bag. A tip of $1-$2 per bag is appropriate.
 
I do that frequently. Just head directly to DME upon arrival at the main terminal. For both trips (to and from the resort to MCO), you can store your carryon bag underneath the bus. But, if you do that, remember to tip your driver.
 
You can also use the resort bag check-in without riding the bus back to the airport. I always rent a car but it's great to check the luggage and not have to drag them from the rental car return.
