Welcome to planDisney, Thea! Vacationing with friends is always a good idea, but sailing with friends on a Disney Cruise is a great idea.
Luggage tags are usually mailed to each household. Since you want them to arrive at one location, your friend will need to
contact Disney Cruise Line to provide the alternate address for her luggage tags. If you need more luggage tags, the porters will have some available at the cruise terminal on embarkation day.
When it's time to head to the port, make sure to keep your
travel documentation and other essential items in your checked bag. Once you hand your luggage over to the porters, you will not see it again until later in the day in front of your stateroom. I keep my medication, portable phone charger, and water bottle with me, along with my passport.
Thea, if you or your friend have any questions, sail back to
planDisney. You have a friend in us!
