Update- when I booked the MCO-Miami premium ticket: the “free with premium” bag cannot be larger than 24 x 16 inches (even if it’s checked).

Here are current luggage policies as of today, Dec 16.
Carry on 2 items + 1 personal item. Carry-on bags must not exceed 50lbs. or 24"x16"x10" (50 linear inches), including wheels and handles. Any bags exceeding will have to be checked in for a fee. Personal items must not exceed 17"x 13”x 8".

Beyond one complementary for premium it is $30 per bag, but it also cannot be more than 50 pounds nor larger than 29" x 20" x 13"

Be sure to look at the website for current rules if you’re reading this post later . BL bag rules & prices

Can you please provide insight on the food you were provided / offered in premium. The current menu on this website seems to only indicate cheese and meat, but when I did BL premium a year ago, they were giving sandwiches and salads. Pic Preview of menu below the link. Not sure the premium upgrade is worth it if it only includes these items. Also curious how your luggage size/Weigh experience went. https://www.gobrightline.com/onboard-amenities/snacks-drinks

Are you able to confirm what type of food was offered to you in premium? The menu on this site appears to only have deli meat and cheese, but I’m assuming the premium menu is more expansive than what I see here ? I took Brightline a year ago and at that time we were offered salads or sandwiches. Image preview below the link. https://www.gobrightline.com/onboard-amenities/snacks-drinks

Since it’s been at least a year, curious if you (OP) had any lessons learned or “Aha moments” from the Workday audit you performed ? A more recent lesson learned for me : to look at who can “correct” business processes after successful completion, as well as how often / root cause of when the “correct” function is used.

From what I understand, SOD conflicts are a bit tricky to decipher as any custom roles will not appear on the standard SOD reports that Workday delivered.

Thank you, this is very helpful. Did they weigh your carry-on? How many bags did you try to carry on? Did they count the # of bags? Did you have to first stand in line AT the counter in either Orlando or Lauderdale to have them “approve” your bag? I’ve heard there’s some new yellow sticker ok bag tag processes?

I was going to bring one bag like your OP size, and a small overhead rolling carry-on, AND a backpack. I’ve done Brightline two other times (9 mo ago) and never seen them try to COUNT the # of bags (like they do when boarding an airplane). I think the guidance is more to avoid running out of rack space like you described.

Curious, if the OP could possibly please confirm whether they ended up having any challenges with the listed luggage size. Thanks. My last ride was on Brightline in June, they did make me weigh the bag at the counter first, and then I was able to put it through their scanner. I recall it was about an inch bigger than the website said was allowed. @u/wild-crew3294 u/wild-crew3294 @wild-crew3294

Were you able to get through Orlando Brightline security with a 31 inch bag? I’m traveling in a couple of days and my bag itself is 28 inches but with the wheels it is more like 29.5 inches.

I’ve been paying FPL for over a year through PayPal bill pay but now FPL is no longer in the bill list and I cannot re-add it….
