Chase Lounge??

[Zippa D Doodah]

I got that email today too. I have very low expectations. I'm thinking a cup of soda and some sort of advertising. Eh, we'll check it out

We will be there Oct 17th/21th. Will be sure to stop by and check out the perk

My expectations are even lower! I'm guessing just a place to sit & rest. The benefits from the Disney card are insignificant so I don't expect them to offer anything free to drink. (But I hope I'm wrong).

Well, I was about to get jealous. Finally found our email in hubby's spam box.

 

[Lil'Mermaid75]

Can I assume that it'll be okay for kids to go in with us or is it something we shouldn't try?

 

[Kteacher]

I received the email as well. I'll check it out in a couple weeks when we are there. It is too far from the festival kiosks to carry food to eat there, but it will be interesting to see what the set up is.

The e-mail specifically mentions complimentary beverages.

I got the email, too. Can't wait to check it out.

You need a Disney Visa card to gain access. I would take the Festival food up there, since there is little seating at F&W.

Email:

As a Disney’s Visa® Cardmember, you’ll receive access to the Chase Lounge during the Epcot® International Food & Wine Festival presented by Chase. The Festival runs from September 28 to November 12, 2012.

It's quite the hike if you are planning on taking food from WS to the festival center.

Got the e-mail also. I don't remember Chase having a lounge there last F&W. We will be checking it out on Oct. 3

Based on past Passholder lounges, I am not expecting much. And by beverage I would expect water and maybe soda. Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised.

 

[Mad Hattered]

And you can take 9 guests in with your also. We too got the email yesterday.

Do you have to get the email to go? We have a Disney Visa and then I have another Chase card. I haven't gotten an email yet. I'll have to ask DH if he got one.

my email just says to show your disney visa card to gain entrance, so i doubt that you need the email.

Do you mean this is tied to the Disney Chase Visa? I have 2 accounts with them, but have not received an email about this.

since you don't need the email to gain entry, i wouldn't worry about it. just show up at the festival center with your disney visa.

For those who are wondering which credit card, we have just a plain ole' Chase and got the email, which said to show our Chase Visa Card for entry. It also said to call for more detail (figured I'd call before leaving). But have also been wondering whether it was worth the time.

i am surprised you got the offer without having a disney visa. i have several chase credit cards (freedom, southwest, and both disney cards), and my email specifically said i have to show my disney visa. i didn't get an email regarding this for my other chase credit cards.

 

[aznshents]

I'm a Disney Visa holder but I didn't get any email... maybe because I only have a Disney Debit :/

edit: nope, never mind, all debit and credit holders get to access the lounge.

 

[LittleMissMagic]

9 guests!?! That's a little ridic... I was worried about the two we'd have with us!

 

[LittleMissMagic]

Based on past Passholder lounges, I am not expecting much. And by beverage I would expect water and maybe soda. Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Yeah, at the AP Lounge in The Land, they offered soft drinks and water. Which is good or me! But maybe since it's F&W, they'll provide some cheap alcohol. Not expecting a lot, but definitely going to check it out!

 

[lucas]

I'm betting on water.

 

[DRDISNEYMD]

*sigh* ~I received the email and I wish I was going! But, I can't wait to hear all the details, that's a really nice unexpected touch by Chase. I think it's going to be fantastic!

Chase is a sponsor for F&W this year. I don't believe they were in prior years.
