Okay... we have access to DME. However, I reserved a limo for our transportation to and from AKL. My question is this... do we go to baggage claim and take our luggage with us or do we let it arrive DME? If we go with DME, how long does it take for our luggage to arrive. We have never been to WDW so I'm not exactly sure how DME works.

Thanks, Kristy

If you're not taking the bus your bags can't go opn the bus either. Your limo driver will meet you by baggage claim and help you with your bags

If you take DME your luggage will arrive in your room approximately 3 hours after your arrival in MCO.

Another DME option if you want your bags with you, is not to put DME tags on your luggage, claim them yourself at baggage claim, then bring them with you on the DME bus. This way you and your luggage arrive together!

If you take the limo, you and the driver will go to baggage claim to get your luggage. If you take DME, you will put the yellow luggage tags they send you on you bags prior to leaving home. Then about 3 hours after your flight arrives, you bags will be brought to your room. I have received them quicker, and I have had them take a little longer. But, I have never had a problem. You do not have to be in your room to get your luggage.
Either way you go, enjoy!
BTW, can you tell me about how much the limo is? I am staying at AKL in Feb. and was debating upon getting one.

Sue, is this how you handle your luggage? I'm so glad to hear that this is an option since we're arriving late in the day. Is there a chane that I'll miss the bus bc I waited for my own luggage? Do many people bring their luggage on the the bus? Sorry for all the questions it's my first trip to Disney.

You would just pick up your own luggage, and bring it to the DME bus and have it loaded on. Yes, some bring their luggage on the DME. But remember not to put on the DME tags. You would still have to have DME reservations.

Thanks for the information! We'll plan on meeting the limo driver at baggage claim.

NJSmama,

The limo is $240 roundtrip [no hidden fees]. This is our first trip and most likely our last trip, so I'm really wanting to make it super special for the girls, and I think they will be so excited when we walk out and they see the limo waiting for us!

We used DME last year and I thought is was great. We checked into our hotel within an hour of landing at the airport and when we got back to our room after dinner our luggage was in our room already. HTH
