Where to store your luggage on your last day in Orlando
Late flight home? You don’t want to waste your last day in Orlando, burdened down by your bags, wondering what to do with them! Instead, make use of these handy luggage storage solutions and enjoy your time exploring Orlando without having to worry about your suitcases!
Although you might not want to think about your holiday ending, it’s best to plan ahead what to do with your luggage so that you can make the most of your last few hours in the Sunshine State, perhaps enjoying a family meal or doing a little last-minute shopping for souvenirs to take back home!
Standard check-out of our villas in Orlando is at 10am, though some of our properties have the option for a later check-out time. If you feel that you would benefit from a later departure, the best thing to do during the course of your stay, is to get in touch with the local management company who are responsible for your villa. They will be able to let you know whether a late check-out is possible; but be advised, there may be a charge for this service. Some of our customers end up paying for an extra night as an alternative option, so they know they’ve definitely got the villa all day, with more time to relax before heading directly to the airport later.
Do you have flights booked back home with Virgin Atlantic and plan on popping into Disney Springs on your last day, even if it’s just for a quick visit before going on elsewhere? If so, you might be interested in making use of the luggage and flight check-in service that they offer! Head to the car park near Cirque Du Soleil at the Westside area of Disney Springs between 8.15am and 1.00pm to visit the Virgin Atlantic check-in site.
You’ll need to have all members of your party present and bring your tickets, passport and all the luggage you want to check in. For a fee of $10 per person (it’s free if you have booked a Virgin holiday package, Upper Class seats or are a Gold-tier Flying Club customer) you will be checked in by Virgin Atlantic and given your boarding cards. They will even take your bags directly to the airport for you, so you don’t need to worry about them until they come off of the carousel back home! This gives you the rest of the day free to explore, shop, or even visit the parks before you need to head to the airport to catch your flight!
“Great service from Virgin, checking our cases in at Disney Springs meant we didn't have to carry them round all day and it made Orlando airport so easy.”
“We booked in at the Disney Springs location; it made our last few hours in Orlando so much easier.”
TIP: The multi-storey car park at Disney Springs is a bit of a trek away when you are carrying luggage, so avoid parking in it if you can! If you arrive early you are more likely to be able to park close to the check-in.
Another option you can take up if you want to avoid having to lug heavy bags around with you all day, is to make use of the luggage storage services offered by companies such as Orlando Baggage Storage, who are located at the Lake Buena Vista Factory Stores Outlet Mall, or Hold My Luggage, who have recently opened a desk at Orlando International.
