Will Bell Services Hold Luggage without a Stay?

For our upcoming trip, we're staying at a Universal hotel, but I was thinking about stopping by the Cake bake shop for breakfast before we head to the airport on our departure day. Would bell services at the Boardwalk be willing to hold our luggage even though we're not staying at a Disney resort? We would go straight from there to the airport.

They need your room number in order to confirm your stay. So no they won't.

I have never have been asked for my room number and it’s a good thing too because I would not know it since I arrive and then check in.

They have always given me a tag and I call bell services once I’m in the room and tell them the number on the tag.

Are you driving? If so can you not just leave your items in your car? We generally stop at Disney Springs on our way to the airport for lunch and our car is packed to the gills. We have never had an issue and BW parking lot is going to have a lot less people passing by your car.

On another note I’m sure you are aware that you are going the wrong direction to the airport :)

Yes they will. They don't want you dragging your luggage through the BW property. It presents a safety issue, and then an eyesore if you just leave it sitting around in the lobby or at the Cake Bake Shop (CBS).

I am not sure a breakfast at CBS is worth a detour. You will want to make a reservation on Open Table to make it easy to get into the BWI without any questions from the gate security CM.

No. You are not staying there so they will not
We will have to agree to disagree in this topic. @chiburple is a guest of the BW resort, and a guest at CBS.

Sorry but no they don't, and if the guest's room has not been assigned yet a guest will not know it either.

The OP isn’t staying at the Boardwalk, staying at a Universal Hotel. The Universal hotel will hold your luggage since you are staying there. Also Universal is way closer to MCO than WDW is so you are basically going west on I4 to get to WDW and then back east again to get to MCO.

@chiburple is wanting to stop at the BW resort on the morning of their departure for breakfast at CBS, and then head directly to the airport. That makes them a guest of the BW but just a morning guest, not an overnight guest.

I would think a Rideshare from the Universal Hotel to the BW, and then a Rideshare from the BW to the airport after a couple of hours at the BW, and at CBS then a Rideshare directly to the airport.
