Magical Express Luggage Tags???

[jarvo9]

We are traveling May 6 - 13 and we have not received our luggage tags for Magical Express yet. I know the last I had seen on this wonderful website was that they were misprinted and going to be FEDEX out. Any word on when or if that has been done? Getting a little anxious about this since our trip is 9 days away.

Thanks!

Nanc,

I did finally get my travel documents. US Postal Service mix up. Probably went around the world before it was delivered correctly. Thanks for asking. Glad to hear I'm not the only one who hasn't received my tags. I'm such a worry wart.

Thanks again for your info.

I'm leaving May 12 and I haven't received my tags from Magic Express. I won't panic until May 7.

Well, we're leaving on the 7th, preparing to do the single-digit dance. Except: we haven't received our tags yet, either. Spoke with CRO Monday, who swore by all things holy, they were Fedex'd on Friday. Today, again, nada.

We were also told that they were FEDEX'd on Friday and could expect delivery no later than Mon/Tues. Today (Wed), nothing. [img]graemlins/shakehead.gif[/img]

Still hoping they come.........In this area home delivery is until 6pm.

Can I kill someone yet?!!!!!1

This was my most recent email rec'd from Disney. Copied and pasted in it's entirety:


Nanc, we are re-printing all transfer vouchers for arrivals May 5-24 beginning tomorrow, and FEDEX them out to the agents, so look for them. A D-Mail extra is going out tonight concerning this issue and a story on www.disneytravelagents.com as well, so I hope it all works out fine for you and your clients.

I do not mean to sound critical, but I honestly do not know why everyone is worrying. Disney is a huge company and will do what it takes to get everything squared away. My parents leave May 18th and we're not worried a bit.

If I were doing the single digit dance and didn't have the tags, I'd certainly be worried as well. Disney has promoted this extensively, but unfortunately doesn't seem to have their ducks in a row yet. Between this and the Disney Dining Experience problems, I'm a little disappointed in their customer service at the start of the Happiest Celebration on Earth.

I'm using Magical Express in October, and am glad there is the time for all the kinks to be worked out before then.

Hang in there, Nanci!!! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

I got an e-mail from Magical Journeys and they aren't going to have any luggage tags sent for my May 12th trip. The e-mail says if I want to take advantage of the transportation I need to take my luggage to the Magical Express Welcome Center at the airport and have the bags tagged for the resort there.

Is anyone else planning to do this? Hope my bags end up in the right place since I will only be at WDW for 2 days.

If you're only going to be there for 2 days, will you even have any checked baggage?

I just want to voice my frustration as well....we are traveling May 7....NO TAGS.
I specifically booked this trip at this time FOR THIS SERVICE!!!!!
I am extremely upset that this has happened and I'm having a hard time staying optimistic.

First...what is the "single digit dance"?

Second....no, I would not be worried if I were leaving on May 18....but I'm not...I'm leaving on May 7. That's a different story.

Yes...Disney is a big company...but they should have had this under control a LONG time ago. I, too am very disappointed and am already drafting the letter for when I return.

Sorry....that is just a saying we often use around here meaning that someone is under 10 days before they leave for WDW.

I hope you get your tags soon, Julie. It has got to be frustrating!

I just wanted to pop in and say GOOD LUCK! I can understand your frustrations, I too would be freaking out by now.

A little pixie dust coming everyones way for a smooth magical express experience.

Nancy, I hope your eyeballs are feeling better!

[mouseaddict]

it is moments like this that I am soooooooooooo happy to live only 2 hours from Disney! I am so sorry that you are all having so much trouble getting your tags. Just remember to pack lots of underwear in your carry on!

I have sent an email to WDW about this service. I have requested that they compensate my family for making other arrangements with another transportation company. I am very disappointed about this news.I refuse to go to the WDW Welcome Centre at the airport and tag luggage along with who knows another 100 guests awaiting transportation to our resorts!!!!

Since I started this post I thought I would let everyone know some Good News FINALLY!

I received my luggage tags last night for my trip on the 6th. [img]graemlins/muscles.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/clappy.gif[/img]

They didn't include my return flight information but was told it is because I'm not flying a "participating airline" and I just need to show the enclosed vouchers to board the bus at my resort.

Hang in there, hopefully the rest are on their way.

Nanc, seems everyone is getting a different story on this. Hope it all goes smoothly for those of us traveling at the very beginning of this service.
