Here’s the thing the original post was asking if there was a weight limit, how many bags, and if a carry on would hinder their embarkation day. They did not ask if the number of bags they plan to bring was too many.
They never actually came back to say how many suitcases they were taking (just what was allowed), but people immediately jumped on them for taking too many. Based on their user name ( DVC related) I’m sure they travel enough to know what they need, and if they bring too much like all of us, they will deal with it, and if they don’t bring enough that can be difficult as well.
This, if you’re bringing X number of suitcases for two people it’s entirely too much is really arbitrary and it’s honestly no one‘s business. On some cruises, we travel very light, on others we don’t.
In fact, it was mentioned that Disney sends out tags for checked luggage, and that you can get more from the porters, but was was not mentioned as you can actually get more tags mailed out to you in advanced by calling
DCL. They don’t care about how much luggage you bring. Technically, they would like it under 50 pounds but they are not weighing it, but like with all things, be considerate of the people who have to move it, don’t give them anything too heavy.
This idea that if I travel with three people and we only use x number of suitcases, and our shoe size is whatever means you possibly couldn’t need more suitcases than us is ridiculous. People are allowed to make their own decisions about what they take or don’t take on vacation with them.
