What is Resort Airline Check-In Service?


A benefit offered to Guests of select Walt Disney World Resort hotels who are departing on participating airlines from Orlando International Airport. You can check your luggage and receive your airline boarding pass right at your Resort hotel. The service is available only if you are flying within the U.S. on:

AirTran
Alaska Airlines
American Airlines
Continental
Delta Air Lines
JetBlue
Northwest
United
US Airways

I believe Southwest has been added but not from all resorts.

Thanks! Rats!!! I got spoiled last trip with being able to use it. Oh well! It would have been too smooth to not have to deal with bags seeing how I scored a non-stop for less than the bus-routes-in-the-sky were offering! Maybe I'll get lucky and they include Virgin before Feb...it seems they are only just starting flights into MCO from some locations....

That's very unlikely. They only deal with the major airlines, they only recently brought Southwest on board and they are very large. You can still use the yellow tags for your trip to MCO.

(Sarcasm mode on.) Virgin America is certainly more "major" than Northwest Airlines - which ceased all operations on January 31, 2010 due to its merger with Delta, but is still listed as a RAC participant by Disney.
