Have kind of a weird situation, hoping our transportation gurus might be able to provide some insight.
I made a scheduling snafu and need to attend a work conference immediately before a trip to WDW. Because of times, flights, etc I will be leaving the conference late one night, flying to an intermediate city on the last flight of the night, then leaving again on the first flight of the morning.
I'll be flying Southwest, and will be checking luggage (1-2 bags.) Flights are on different PRNs. Flight arrives 12:40A and next flight leaves 6:00A. Connecting airport is Pittsburgh, if that matters.
Is it possible for me to check my luggage in Denver and have it checked through to MCO? It looks like PIT is open 24hrs so I am hoping I can catch a few hours of sleep airside. If not, I'll have to collect my luggage, keep it for several hours until the ticketing desk opens, then recheck it and reclear security, all of which I'm hoping to avoid.
(I'm also considering a hotel - but having trouble justifying the price for 2-3 hours of sleep. In any event, I won't need access to my checked luggage for the overnight.)
Any experiences would be appreciated! Thanks!
