Resort Thread Disney's Club Level (CL) Thread

qzxc
Is this the standard now for club level guests? Can anyone else comment their experience? I know in the past we were greeted as we walked off the magical express, but I wasn’t sure how that would work now that it’s going away!
I have never been greeted in the lobby or from DME when staying CL. Ironically, we were greeted off the ME at WL when we weren't staying CL. They checked us in while sitting on those comfy chairs in the lobby.

In my experience it really varies by resort (and can vary even at resorts that do it well). WL has historically been one that does it well. AKL pretty good. CR & Poly, not a chance. I have seen greeters waiting for specific people at YC - but never for me it seems (over multiple stays). 😂

In my opinion... definitely a your mileage may vary situation that I wouldn't expect/count on... but if they are there waiting, then bonus and a great way to start your stay.

I've only had it happen once, and that was pre-pandemic at GF. Out of multiple CL stays there I was only met once, and that time the girl was asking many people if they were me (people dressed nice, because me in my running shorts and park t-shirt was definitely not staying CL *eye roll*). I just stood there and waited for her to finish asking all the other people on the bus if they were me, and when she finally realized it was me just told me she had been waiting for me to greet me and show me upstairs. I've stayed CL many times and aside from managers meeting me because stuff has gone wrong previously that's the one and only time, so I would say to not expect it.
 
The sandwiches are Uncrustables. This is our first time away from home for Christmas, so it’s so weird - but nice and relaxing lol Have a great time!
We were at WDW for Christmas week last week and I think my husband would have described it the same way lol. I think he's decided he doesn't like the feeling of being away from home on Christmas, but I loved how relaxing it was, even better if we had CL last year! Enjoy!
 
Totally agree with this. It didn't want to read our MBs. It isn't an easy set-up either once it actually worked. I would run over and push it with my back, and then try to grab my mom's wheelchair. Seems like there should be an easier way to do it.

I felt the same back in ‘19. Kinda bummed they didn’t find a better solution for this (or at least a better reader) during the remodel.

I hope you enjoy your stay. My extended family canceled weeks ago and my one cousin that was still coming canceled this week. So it was my family, my sister and her husband and my dad. My brother will be joining us tomorrow. So depressing to me. It's usually a 35 person celebration. I asked my kids if they wanted to go to Disney instead but they didn't want to be away from home for Christmas 😔
 
@mrsap thanks for the pics! Everything looks pretty much the same except we didn’t have the individual cereals. Those packages of cookies look like the same as the ones they brought to our table one night at dessert when my DH asked if they had cookies.
Thank goodness for the pasta! 😂
Merry Christmas! 🎄

Amen. I would have been ok with a liquid dinner, though! lol My kids didn’t even like the pasta! They asked for it plain 😐
