If your plane lands later, what would be the "latest" magical express would deliver luggage by?

They advertise to expect your luggage by 3 hours after you arrive at your resort. So probably by 10:00PM at the latest.
Thank you!
It could be because they say 3 hrs from the time you get to your resort, not the time you land. I know I hadn’t caught that nuance, and once we landed at 5:30 and got our luggage at 10:00 or 10:30 and was kind of annoyed until someone pointed that out to me. It was probably a little over 3 hrs from our arrival at the resort, so I didn’t have anything to be annoyed about except just the trade off of convenience of not getting my luggage myself vs the time frame without luggage.This week our plane landed at 4 and it took 5 hours for luggage to be delivered. Resort acted like that was normal. I was frustrated bc I had been counting on the 3 hr as the outer limit
We land at 7:20, which is new for us. I've read somewhere on here that you can ask bell services to hold it when it arrives until the next morning, and then call to have it brought up. I don't really want to have to sit around until midnight or 1am waiting for our luggage to arrive.
Or maybe we should just pick it up from baggage claim? How much time would that add at the airport? We really love the convenience of our luggage being delivered for us.
DME is located in terminal B at MCO. We fly SW which is in terminal A, I estimate picking up our own luggage adds about 30 minutes. If you're flying into terminal B it's probably 20 minutes. We pick up our luggage, I like seeing my stuff along the trip.

I don't understand your comment. DME pulls tagged luggage until 10PM. Not a few minutes before, not a few minutes after. If you reach your gate after 10 PM they are clear that it is your responsibility to get your own luggage. If you don't pick it up it sits, unattended, in the airport all night and is picked up by DME in the morning and then delivered.I believe the last time DME will even take your luggage for the night is 10:00 p.m. I'm not sure if a plane arrives to the gate a few minutes before if they wait or what happens to your luggage if you miss the 10:00 p.m. cutoff. We land at 8:30 so I'm curious as to this as well.
