Airport Luggage Transfer Now Offered At All Disney Value Resorts

Disney has now rolled out the service to all Value Resorts

All-Star Movies Resort -Disney

Starting today, April 3rd, guests staying at any of the 5 Disney Value Resorts and flying Southwest can take advantage of the Airport Luggage Transfer service. Guests will be able to drop their checked baggage off with Luggage Assistance and it will be delivered to your flight. This service is only offered for guests flying out of Orlando International Airport (MCO).  

As we’ve experienced, MCO can get extremely busy during peak travel times, so being able to check your bags before getting to the airport will save you some valuable time.

Participating resorts include:

All-Star Movies

All-Star Music

All-Star Sports

Art of Animation

Pop Century

Disney’s website has been updated with the steps guests will need to take to utilize this service.

1.        At the beginning of your stay, check in at your Disney Value Resort hotel and call or visit Luggage Assistance to take advantage of this service. For a smoother experience, leave your inbound Southwest Airlines tags on your bags.

2.        The day before your departure, check in for your Southwest Airlines flight online.

3.        Drop off your bags at Luggage Assistance in the Resort hotel lobby area by the required drop off time. Please be aware that you will need to provide a valid form of photo identification in order to drop off your bags. You can also call Luggage Assistance from your in-room telephone to ask for help with your bags.

4.        Head to the airport, skip the check-in line, enjoy your flight and pick up your bags at baggage claim when you arrive at your destination.

Guests flying before 1:00pm EST will need to drop bags off to Luggage Assistance before 1:00AM. And if you’re flying after 1:00pm you’ll need to drop your bags off at least 4 hours before your flight departure time or no later than 1:00pm.  The Luggage Assistance is available to check your bags any time from 5:00am to 1:00am.

After checking your bags you’ll be able to track them using the Southwest Airlines app.

For more information head over to Disney’s website here. We’re excited that this service is returning and hope that it will be expanded to other airlines!

Will you be taking advantage of this returning service?
