This is the information that was e-mailed to me. We're staying in March.
Let me just take a moment to touch base with you about our check in procedure. If you arrive before 5 p.m look for the cast member at the Kilimanjaro Club check in podium just to the left of the front entrance.If you arrive after 5 p.m but before 10 p.m. you will need to enter the lobby and turn left to the Bell Services desk and they will assist you. Should your room be prepared at this time, a cast member will take you directly up to your room and you can come by the concierge lounge at your leisure to check in. However if the room has not been prepared yet, the bellman will put your luggage in storage and a cast member willtake you directly up to our concierge lounge. Either way, there will beno need for you to wait in line at the Front Desk. If you are arriving after 10:00 p.m.you will have to check in briefly with the Front Desk. Please be sure to stop by the Kilimanjaro Club desk in the morning before you head out so we can make sure we have your reservation in order regarding charging privileges and tickets.
