Hello everyone,

I posted something about this a couple of weeks back but forgot to ask one question. We are bringing our friends along on our October trip to AKV but we only had enough points for them to stay Sunday to Friday (10/4-10/9). At first they wanted to go back home on Friday but then I think they've been hearing advice from everyone that 5 days is definitely not enough at Disney so they decided to stay another 2 days, leaving Sunday the 11th. Their last 2 days (10/9-10/11), they will transfer over to POP via a cash ressie.

I know that when they check out on Friday from AKV, they call Bell Services to get their luggage and have it sent to POP. They then check out of AKV and go over to POP and check in there and later on in the day, they contact Bell Services at POP to get their luggage.

My question is about ME though. Will I, as the DVC member who can contact MS, be able to link the AKV points reservation to my friends' POP cash reservation so that their departure flight information is recorded? It should not be hard to put in the arrival flight information, but I am stumped about the departure, because they will not be picked up from AKV to go back to the airport, but from POP. How do we go about it? When we did a split stay before, it was solely DVC and solely points reservations. Haven't done it at all mixing points stay and a cash stay.

Thanks so much in advance for anyone that can provide input!
 
My guess would be that MS would handle ME for the arrival, and CRO would handle ME for the departure.
 
I mixed a hotel with DVC and DME. The only part that was a little confusing for me was that I got two separate DME packets-one for arrival only, and one for return only. The bad part (for a few days) was that my return info came first, and it had no arrival info. I think there's a way to hook it all up, but I just want to let you know that even with 2 separate reservations, everything worked out OK.
 

Let your friends make their own arrangements to return back to the airport on ME. That part is their reservation.
