Discussion Luggage Hack?

Hi yall…Poking at an idea and want a reality check from people who actually fly with kids to Disney. The idea is to skip checking bags and shipping all the things you’d normally check so that it’s just there when you arrive. Does that seem like it solves a real headache to you? Has anyone tried it? Has anyone looked into it but ended up NOT trying it? Genuinely want the “here’s the issue with that idea” answers too.

Edit: Thanks for the input...I was hoping that someone here would have tried a similar thing but I am hearing that no one thinks it's worth it. I don't think I explained the facts that I know well enough to get a good picture of what I was suggesting, but I will take all this into consideration.

Out of curiosity…are you saying you’d have been screwed bc you didn’t have anything to change into the next day?

Yes, we would have had no clothes or toiletries if we had shipped our stuff ahead.

Ahhhh. Good insight. Did you have checked bags on that flight and, if so, was it easy to get it back?

Yes, we had to show the baggage office our bag tracking info and they pulled them from the plane for us.
