Club Level Lounge Question

[L&Lfan]

On one's departure day, how long does one have access to the club level lounge? If room checkout is at 11am and one's DME pickup isn't until say, 3pm or later, would one be able to use the lounge until the DME bus comes? Just curious as we'd rather wait in the lounge where we'd have access to drinks and snacks, a restroom and air conditioning, rather than kill time in the lobby or elsewhere on the resort grounds until our bus pickup. We really would not have enough time to go to one of the parks or Disney Springs. Can anyone help me with any info? Thanks!

All day. I checked out on a Sunday morning from the Polynesian with an 8pm flight, checked the luggage with the bell desk but kept my swimsuit and went swimming all afternoon and then changed clothes in the lounge bathroom and kicked back in the lounge for the remaining time having a few drinks before catching the magical express.

Thanks, Skywise, I was hoping for that. I was told that lounge privileges ended upon checkout but I'm glad to know that isn't true!

You're also allowed to make use of the lounge on arrival day before officially checking into your room. (You'll still need to check-in at the frontdesk/club desk)

I'm not sure who told you this, but as the pp said, you have access to the lounge all day. You can use any of the resort's amenities (including the lounge for CL guests) until midnight of the day you check out .

You are able to use the lounge the entire day on both arrival and departure day. If you are planning to stay there the entire time though be aware that the lounge closes at times for setup and breakdown during the day. I don't think it's for very long but we noticed this periodically when we stayed at BC.

It was explained to me by IPO that you have access to CL and your free refills for your mug until midnight of your departure date.
