Will Bell Services Hold Luggage without a Stay?

[chiburple]

ChatGPT is sort of shockingly good at summarizing this thread to date, for those just joining... (with apologies to OP @chiburple for taking this thread in a comedic direction...)

The Situation​

OP: “Hey, I’m not staying at BoardWalk, but can Bell Services babysit my luggage while I grab some Cake Bake Shop calories before the airport?”

---

The Peanut Gallery Replies​

• Rule Sticklers: “No room number, no service. Bell Services isn’t your personal coat check.”
• Realists: “LOL, they literally tag bags all the time before rooms are even assigned. Nobody’s scanning your MagicBand like it’s TSA.”
• Frequent Fliers: “I’ve left bags with them without staying there, after checkout, before check-in, at meetings — heck, probably could’ve left my dog if I asked nicely.”
• Corporate Policy Theorists: “It’s for guests only… except for all the times it’s not.”

---

The Consensus (or lack thereof)​

• Half the posters: “Of course they’ll hold it, they don’t want you dragging a Samsonite through the lobby.”
• The other half: “Prepare to be denied, rules are rules.”
• Reality: It totally depends on the cast member’s mood, the weather, and possibly the phase of the moon.

Final Take​

Disney Bell Services = Schrödinger’s Luggage.
Your bag is both accepted and rejected until you actually roll it up to the podium.

No need for apologies. This has become quite riveting entertainment. I'm quite curious to see where this latest turn will take us: Am I going to have to get a retina scan to leave my bags with bell services if I'm eating at CBS?

Just roll in with your luggage and tell them you brought your own doggie bags

Hmm an odd tangent. How would Disney know that DVC owner (members), and/or AP ticket holder are in a room? Maybe a Retina scanner on the resort room door?

What do you think Hey Disney is for?
