Magical Express luggage tag question...

OK, so we're flying Southwest in October (yay for frequent flyer miles!) and, as most people know, Southwest allows two checked bags per passenger, free of charge. So, a few weeks ago, while I was on the phone with WDW adding La Nouba tickets to our package, I asked about having extra DME luggage tags sent for all of us in our party. The lady told me that I could just take a single luggage tag, which is "really long" and "cut it in half".

Having never used DME before, I'm wondering...should I trust this person who seemed like she just wanted to gett of the phone with me, or should I call again and request extra luggage tags? Are the tags actually "really long"? I figured it would be best to ask the experts, so here I am. biggrin

That doesn't sound right to me. The tags are long but they are meant to be folded in half around the handle of your suitcase and stuck together.

Plus it contains your resort and reservation information so it gets delivered to the right place. I'm just not sure if that information is printed on both halves.

I'll have to see if I saved mine from last year

I have done exactly what you were advised in the past. The resort and bar code are located at the ends. Cut it in half, and each half will have the required resort name and bar code.

We have requested more tags every year and they always have sent us more no problem

I'm also going in October but I have not called to request them yet. Should I call now? I have to call 866-599-0951 right??

You can get extra DME tags or you can cut them in half. As long as the barcode is on each half. They'll get to your resort. I have called and asked for more without any problems.

If you feel safer to have more... just ask for more. Im surprised they gave you that answer. We have never had issues receiving more.
