If you can leave the baggie open, and put some ammo-lock in there, they should be okay for quite a while. If the tank is still setup and heated, clip the bags to the side of the tank, and swap out half the water every 30 minutes until they go out the door. This should help prevent temp fluctuations and ammonia build up.

I agree, I think if you leave the bag open with fresh water in it and some ammolock or conditioner of some (decent) kind, things should be fine. :)

to add, if you do have to close the bags for some reason make sure you have more air than water, but make sure the fish can be fully submerged at all times. and use fresh air, do not blow air into the bag.
