Yes, I'm a looser dooffus. Gail already explained this once but I didn't take notes.

I don't know why I can't get this into my thick skull, but would someone please explain to me again how to go about getting a luggage cart or someone to help with luggage when we arrive at MCO? We're staying at the Hampton Inn our first night and need to catch the HI shuttle. We'll need to get our luggage (6 bags ) out to the curb. Thanks.

They have automated racks with luggage carts right next to the baggage claim. I think it was $2, you could put in money or just swipe your credit card. I'm sure there are also skycaps, but that's why I bring DH

LOL! So that what they're for! I'm traveling with my DD28 & DGD7........got shed of my DH in 1977! I guess they do come in quite handy for carrying luggage though....

ROTFLMAO,
Ok, here is the deal. You can rent one of those cute little luggage thingies, for about 2.00 (as stated). You can then roll them out to the shuttle area, OR......for about a dollar a bag you can get one of those really nice skycaps, who will not only roll them out to the shuttle area, they will even get it off the luggage carousel (sp?) for you. My S/O and I love the skycaps for departure, love the luggage thingies for arrival. For the life of me I cannot remember where the shuttle area is, but, if memory serves (I get these senior moments more and more lately) I think it is right outside luggage pickup.
Hope this helps.

By the way you were pretty young when you got "shed" of you DH.

Thanks, Gail. Would one of those luggage thingies hold 6 bags?

 

[GAIL HAYDEN]

Depends on the size of the bags. But, I can tell you we fit 3 huge duffles with wheels, Dee's HUGE tennis bag (about the size of one med. bodybag) , my carry on and our computer back pack on it with no problems. Hey, worst case, rent two. The kids can always carry one each, if the bags are small enough, itis not a long walk. The cart will take money, credit cards or atm's with the visa/mc logo, btw.

Oh, Gosh, I just noticed your countdown!!!!! HAVE A WONDERFUL TIME!!!!!! My first visit ever was over Halloween there and I loved it.
