Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted April 5, 2017 Author #26 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I have gotten many positive responses about this service so we will take advantage of it and JetBlue is on the list this is wonderful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_G Posted April 5, 2017 #27 Share Posted April 5, 2017 If you're flying Southwest using luggage valet, because there are no seat assignments, I highly recommend the purchase of Southwest's Early Bird boarding for the return trip. There's no telling how late the ship will check you in and this way they're just printing your already checked-in boarding passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa8 Posted April 5, 2017 #28 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Southwest has two free bags per person. So put all four bags with those two people and then pay for two Luggage Valet. If you want to pay an extra $50 for two more boarding passes and spread the bags over four people you can, but it is cheaper to print them the way debitoo did. You can do the same thing for two people traveling with two bags - pay for one Luggage Valet and have ship generate one boarding pass. Other person gets their own another way. Most airlines you can just print a boarding pass at the airport. Southwest doesn't use seat reservations, so that is a whole different issue. Thanks. I get it now, so luggage valet charges per person. So if one person check in two pieces of luggage we just pay for 2 pieces through the airline but one fee for the luggage valet. I tried googling if luggage valet is provided for flights into Canada through Air Canada, getting conflicting answers. I guess we wont find out till we are on the ship.

Yup the link you provided didnt show Air Canada. We are going to be at Cape Liberty. Air Canada participates on some of the ships, but its not consistent :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artemus Posted April 5, 2017 #33 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I've thought about using it in the past but have not because of the unlikely possibility of my bags being lost. There have been some horror stories on here of people having their bags lost and not having a way to track their bags because of a third party being involved.

Well, back in the day when RC offered airfare (not today's choice air) we used it whenever they had a better rate than on your own.... like $150 round trip PHX-MIA ...can you imagine getting to your departure airport and giving your luggage to the porter, with cruise tags attached and then not seeing them until they arrived in your cabin 2 days later? So far we have used luggage valet twice, both times no problems, well that is until our airline lost one bag....it was found 4 hours later and delivered to our house the next morning. Luggage valet is a great service! *** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FunCruiser56 Posted April 10, 2017 #41 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Luggage Valet is the best thing ever! We didnt have to do the bag hunt after our cruise, just went to the Mobile Passport line and we were in our cab 15 min after leaving the ship. Right to secuity, no waiting around to check in our bags. The most stressfree end to our trip ever!. We did notice that the tracking numbers for our bags were listed with our boarding pass so you can track your luggage if it goes missing. We will always use this service anytime we can.

BigDaddyCVO Posted May 21, 2017 #47 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Anyone had trouble with Pre-Check not printing on the boarding passes RCI prints for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted May 21, 2017 #48 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Anyone had trouble with Pre-Check not printing on the boarding passes RCI prints for you? Once we had TSA PRE and I used a old printer to print the boarding pass. It would not scan at the security line, so they would not allow us to use the TSA PRE line. Since then I always re-print the boarding pass at the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted May 21, 2017 Author #49 Share Posted May 21, 2017 We had the TSA PRE on our cell phone and it worked perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted May 21, 2017 #50 Share Posted May 21, 2017 On our last Allure sailing we used the free luggage valet for suites......... (August 2016) Well kinda free, some where along the line from RCI picking up the luggage outside the room to our final destination (Cleveland) someone stole a pair of MK sandals, now why they only selected to steal those .............................. Now back to using the TSA locks. But I guess if someone wants in a bag bad enough they probably can get in anyway. Safe travels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
