Me Tickets Incorrect

[firsttimedisn]

We just received our tickets for Magical Express in the mail today. There are two things incorrect on them. Our last name is spelled incorrectly, and we changed resorts prior to the 45 day mark, but the ME tickets have the old resort name on them. I'm guessing that if it were one or the other that were incorrect, it wouldn't be so bad, but I'm afraid they won't be able to track the luggage to the right place, or it might end up taking a long time, since two things are wrong. Can anyone offer suggestions on what we should do?

Thanks!

I would call DME yourself (the number should be in your info packet) and let them know which resort you will be staying at. Depending on when you are departing for WDW, they may still be able to get new tags out to you. If not, they can tell you exactly what the best plan would be. But you are best off calling them directly.

If you don't get correct yellow tags in time, use the ones you have but write in the correct resort name and (smaller print OK) your last name spelled correctly to better guide the human baggage handlers. Bring the other printed materials, vouchers, stubs, etc. as everyone should normally.

If you do get the corrected yellow tags, be sure to bring the matching printed materials, vouchers, etc.

Many thanks to both of you for the reply. They should have plenty of time to get the new luggage tags out (44 days and counting) and it sounded as if they were running new tags as we speak. Thanks again!

This happened to me last year. I called the 800 number in the packet and they printed new ME tags, it was about a week before the flight and on day before the flight my new ME tags arrived via FED-EX.

However the ME rep/ told me, in case my new tags didn't arrive, put the correct info on the old tags and make sure you cross out the bar-code with black marker to force a "person" to double check the reservation.

I wouldn't do this until you are told to do so by ME.
