Well, there'll be a CC invite only meet shipboard, with a lavish buffet. You'll also get a pin and an inroom gift, which in past history has either been a carryon bag or a beach towel.

Here is a link to the current CC gift. But, you had to have noted on your ressie that you were indeed a repeat cruises. It does not always show up automatically on the ressie. The buffet is very nice with an assortment of appetizer foods, not entree's. They also serve complimentary alcoholic/non alcoholic drinks.

Did you tell your TA or Disney that you were a repeat cruiser when you made your ressies???

i took my cc club card with me just in case. There were two return cruiser pins in my room when i arrived along with the beautiful beach towel. The buffet was excellent, and of course drinks were free!

We just returned yesterday from our cruise. We received a beautiful beach towel, and two repeat guest pins. When we went to the reception, it was not buffet anymore. Because of the illnesses on other ships, all food is now handled only by the waitstaff. That includes the breakfast buffet.

Another CC perk is a separate check in line inside the terminal...we found this by accident as we were in an adjacent line that was long.......and noticed the "Castaway Cay" members line which was very, very short......

Scarlet...wow, the CC line was short...it usually is the other way around!!!

We always look to see what line is shorter, and never found the CC line to be short. Glad is does happen occasionally!
