Why only One Tag for Luggage?!

[Scrappy_Tink]

Argh!! Did my packing last night, and I'm going to have to use another suitcase....which means we're going to have to pick up luggage at the airport. Disney has us soooooo spoiled delivering our luggage after the flight. I wish they'd give you more than one tag per person for luggage delivery!!

They stopped sending two tags when the airlines started charging more for checked bags and passengers stopped checking as many.

You can call for more but it may be too close to your trip.

You can also give DME your baggage claim checks and they will retreive your bags even without the yellow tags.

As a precaution, I ask for an extra one when I first call to arrange DME. They send it soon after (a nice bit of "pixie dust" to whet my vacation magic early). That way, if I do need it, I don't have to stress out by a last-minute request.

Thanks, nice to know for future trips...not sure if I'd trust them with my baggage claim though, we'll probably just get it ourselves.

Definitely going to do this in the future!! We are flying SW, so we have two pieces of free checked luggage.

People do it all the time. I wouldn't worry about it.

For this last trip, and one a few years ago, I just made a copy of one of the luggage tags on my color printer, so it was yellow.
I just attached that to my 2nd suitcase, it worked fine, all my luggage got to our room.

It is cheaper for DME to send out the one tag per person that probably comprises 90% of passengers using the service (maybe more), then just sending a second tag to the other 10%.

What is the number to call for an additional tag? I know I will need one more for our upcoming trip. Thanks!

Thousands of guests in the seven-plus years tha Magical Express has been in existence have successfully and conveniently had their luggage deliver to their WDW rooms using just claim check numbers.
