Breaking: Disney World Free Luggage Transfer Just Expanded
Just like that, Walt Disney World made a big change affecting the free Airport Luggage Service. See what changed with this free perk.
Disney Airport Luggage Transfer
Disney is taking action after coming under scrutiny for many Disney resort perks missing over the years. In 2025, we shared that Pop Century was being used to try this new airline check-in for guests flying Southwest.
The Airport Luggage Transfer Program soon expanded to all five Walt Disney World Value Resorts. This includes All-Star Movies, All-Star Sports, All-Star Music, Pop Century, and Art of Animation.
You can review Kate's experience using this perk HERE. Full details for this luggage service is available HERE.
Airlines Added for Disney's Airport Luggage Transfer
Last April, we shared that this perk is expanding to include additional airlines, including American and United Airlines. Walt Disney World added Delta Airlines to the list of airlines offering Airport Luggage Transfer. However, a few hours later, this was removed.
Disney shares that additional airlines may be added soon. It will be interesting to see if this was a similar error and if Delta Airlines will be added in the coming month. At this time, the only airlines offering Airport Luggage Transfer are American Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and United Airlines.
After a year of this service only being available for Guests staying at All-Star Movies, All-Star Sports, All-Star Music, Pop Century, and Art of Animation this is now expanding.
Airport Luggage Transfer Moderate Resorts
Starting today, August 18, 2026, Disney's Airport Luggage Transfer program is now offered at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort. This marks the first moderate resort to be added to the list.

We are hoping that additional moderate resorts will be added to this free perk.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Donna loved Disney from an early age. As a child, her family would joke that she lived in "Donna Land." As an adult, she enjoys planning and creating magical vacations for her family. She always brings a little faith, trust, and a little bit of Pixie Dust!
Would love to see the luggage transfer come back to the Deluxe Resorts.
Seems to me you pay a deluxe price you should have this perk.
Also loved the DME. As stated it made your vacation start at the airport! Loved that!
This is good. Keep the expansion going. Continue it to every resort and bring back Disney's Magical Express (DME). DME was a wonderful service and allowed us to begin our vacation at MCO. It was also a sure-fire way to reduce auto traffic throughout WDW.
100% agree! Magical Express is greatly missed!
