Hi Dawn! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel.
I love that you are trying to maximize your time in the Theme Parks. I try to squeeze out every last ounce of pixie dust before I have to go back to reality.
We always take full advantage of the complimentary
Resort Airline Check-In service. The last day of our vacation we wake up early, pack up all of our luggage and call for bell services to take it to the Airline Check-In desk. Here your boarding passes will be waiting for you and you can check your bags right here! That means no carrying your luggage around, and no waiting in long lines at your Airline to check bags. You must check in no later than three hours prior to your scheduled flight departure time.
If you still have carry-on luggage and other miscellaneous souvenirs (like your Mickey Ear Hats) that you are going to take on the plane with you, simply leave your bags at bell services where they will store them for you until the Magical Express picks you up to take you to the airport.
I hope that I have helped to answer your question! If you have more vacation planning questions. Please feel free to come back and see us real soon. We love helping guests just like you!
