Top of the World Lounge at Bay Lake Tower at Contemporary Resort - *2 New Parties Added! “Enchantment at the Top” & New “Bound to Be Bad” Dates Added

[DonMacGregor]

I'm hearing that now through Aug 11th it will be a $55 per person charge including an app and drink and will be every night. Anyone else see this?

That's only for White Card Plebs.

I really preferred the original classy rooftop experience and think I can live without the Villains theme … unless that buffet offers unlimited Villains lair cake !
I could be thrilled& chilled to the bones for all you can eat cake …

Im trying to get the link. Its called the "wicked wind down package" It was posted on Facebook by DVC. This was screenshotted and sent to me. I don't see the post. Then there were comments that MS confirmed it through chat and gave the dates and price. I don't see why someone would add this on when $55 is more than a drink and app. Unless for the "special" viewing area.

Edit* looks like the post was taken down...

Wow!!

 

[Ruttangel]

I’m definitely DVC N but Why does my white temp card say TOTW access?

 

[hilltopper152]

I hope your right. There just doesn't seem to be much value in it.

I think they are aiming for having so few people they can setup a few games of monopoly and really get to know a small group of members. We will see.

 

[DonMacGregor]

It's an add-on to regular, free, lounge access.

It hasn’t been updated yet. But it does say subject to change.

I do wonder if they will change their tune later if the room is half capacity. I can see them opening it up for a fee and have restrictions for us. Who knows.

Id be surprised to see that but as you say, who knows. And with the new paid option to enjoy the spot, no need to really do it if the goal is exclusive for the purpose of membership extras.

Well wish they would just create a quick service there and make it happen somehow but I know there is a lot of reasons why not.

Yeah, but that temporary card says access until 8/8

good luck but bet they dont care and say sorry. Unless you guilt them very hard or have puppy dog eyes.

I wonder, do the points you're using for your DVC villa have to be direct points themselves or do you just need to have the blue card?

 

[Sandisw]

Because you printed it today. They have a one month expiration. My guess is those will be removed at some point.

It doesn’t really matter though because the terms and conditions for TOTWL now require DVC Y as well as the digital membership card. The temporary cards are not the digital card.

But you know all this already.

What's the max capacity? I bet this sells out and locks people showing up out.

You have to show DVC Y to enter the lounge. It doesn’t matter how your reservation was booked as long as you are staying at WDW.

We don’t know if they will be capping based on seats or based on the observation deck.

But, there is always a chance that any of us who are eligible to go will not get in..that’s why I don’t think they will be changing the rules to allow those not eligible in. They won’t need to

Maybe I missed this, but when I log into my DVC and I have a blue card, the only card I see is the temp card that is good for a month. How do I see the digital card, where is that? Thanks

The lounge had seating for about 75 and the outdoor deck supposedly holds about 400. It has always been first-come, first-served, and some days the lounge would fill up before fireworks time. Most days, you weren't going to arrive 10 minutes before fireworks and get a seat on the window--or necessarily any seat. This is kinda like a FastPass for fireworks seating. If you're already planning to buy a beverage, appetizer and dessert, you're paying another ~$20 for the reserved seat.

I guess it's an appealing option for people who prefer not to invest the time. But I don't think it's going to send popularity of the lounge into the stratosphere.
