Southwest/ME Questions

[Mich Mouse]

I really do not feel the love with Southwest, but they have 59.00 flights right now! If we do fly with them will ME claim our luggage and transport it or do we have to?

That could be the clincher....Jet bLue has flights for 89.00...The difference is worth it if we do not have to handle the luggage.

Yes, on your way TO Disney World, ALL airlines "participate" in Magical Express and luggage delivery. Just attach the yellow tags in your DME packet as instructed on the tag (and watch to make sure nobody removes them when you check your luggage in at your home airport).

yes, they will take your bags to WDW, but for the return flight home you can not check your luggage in at the resort like you can with other participating airlines (not sure if JB is one of those that participate in RAC)

Thanks...I thought only certain airlines participated in the handling of the luggage.

ME always picks up the bags when I fly Southwest.

As for the return flight, I check-in on the Blackberry at the 24 hour mark. I bring the bags to luggage storage the last morning. When I hit the kiosk to print out the physical boarding pass, I check the bags at the same time. Plus I feel safer not hauling a boarding pass with me through the parks on my last day.

If I can't haul my own luggage to check-in. Well I have too much luggage then.

ME will pick up your luggage as long as you put your yellow tags on you bags.
