water in checked luggage

[nettii]

Last year I put a case of water in our checked luggage. Do you think that I can still do that with the liquid ban?

It's my understanding that you can check whatever liquids you want. You just can't carry them onboard. You might want to check with the airline just to be sure.

When we came back home on Dec 3rd I had half a case of bottled waters in my luggage. We were on three different flights and had no problems.

The ban is only on liquids in carry-ons.

You can check water in your bags. But why on earth would you? Seems like your luggage would be so much lighter if you bought the water at your destination. Although I suppose it would reserve lots of room in your luggage...

Why not just order the water from Staples and have them deliver it to your resort. That way it's there when you arrive and you don't have to worry about checking it in at the airport.

We are big water drinkers and I always pack about 20 bottles in my checked lugguge with no problems.

It only cost 5 bucks for a case of water, I never touch my luggage once its checked untill I open it it my room. And we have no plans of going off Disney after we arrive. So it will actualy save me time and money to check it.

The water ban is for carry on, not checked luggage.
But, isn't your luggage heavy enough without all that added weight.
I can vouch for an easy transaction with Staples, I ordered the water and they sent it to the resort. It was there waiting for us upon check in. We left the few bottles we didn't use behind. Hopefully mousekeeping took them (or just tossed them out?).
You don't pay for shipping if you join Staples online first. Be sure to add your Staples number to your order. I actually called the toll free number to be sure all was okay with my order. The rep then changed up the deliver too address to show it was a vacation visit and not our home.
As a matter of fact, I have actually gotten into the habit of ordering water for our home now about once a month. It is easier on me having to lug it from the truck into the house, shipping is still free and the bottle price is comparable to the stores.
Good Luck!

Thank you for the info how much is it for a case of water thru stapels?

 

[a1tinkfans]

The price depends on the brand and bottle size, also whether you want sports top or not. I usually pay about 5.95 or so, a case of 24. Actually just got 3 cases last week!
Good Luck!
