Walt Disney World Adds Southwest Arrival Bag Delivery in Orlando Pilot Starting Nov. 18

The limited test with BagCheck builds on this year’s departure program to create a near roundtrip service that Disney says it will evaluate for possible expansion.

Overview

  • Eligible guests flying domestically on Southwest into Orlando International Airport can skip baggage claim and have checked bags delivered to select Disney Resort hotels beginning November 18, 2025.
  • Bags are handed off at the Southwest bag drop or ticket counter after landing, with third‑party provider BagCheck targeting delivery to resorts in roughly four hours.
  • Disney is emailing invitations to qualifying travelers, and registration must be completed online between 30 and 5 days before departure.
  • Disney has not officially confirmed the resort list for arrivals; multiple outlets report the Value options, including the All‑Star hotels, Art of Animation, and Pop Century, but that remains unconfirmed.
  • The arrival service complements the existing outbound luggage transfer from resorts to MCO, moving the pilot toward a full roundtrip experience subject to guest feedback and operational results.
