Could be wrong but we are DVC and didnt see any special check in on my last two. There are a few different entrances based on Castaway Club status and Concierge. There is a new Concierge waiting area though.
It's nor more special than any other ship. In the terminal, it's the same place and on board it's just in a different area of the ship. Nothing glamorous or or over the top.
I don't think I've ever seen a DVC check-in at the port and you now check in before entering the terminal. Once inside the building there is a separate line for Platinum; I'm not sure if they further subdivide into first-time cruisers and Gold/Silver or if they're all in one line. I definitely didn't see a DVC line in January when we last cruised.
