Have fun! We loved Chronos!We check in GDT CL on Friday!! I was kind of bummed that we didn't receive a phone call but they called yesterday. It came up as a no caller ID so I almost didn't answer it. Glad I did
Thank you!Have fun! We loved Chronos!
That is cheapWhat's the average daily rate for CL these days? I just got back from an 8 night cruise that included everything except shore excursions for $1,400 (2 people in balcony, tips included) and it felt so cheap!
I paid a bit less for one night in CR CL during the 50th anniversary date. It's about the same cost as one AP! My head is still exploding.
You can hardly find a basic hotel room with nothing included except for a bottle of water for the price you paid per night! That's impressive! Rates everywhere are insane now unfortunately. I think the biggest problem with Disney prices right now is the lack of discounts. We only got 15% AP for our November trip, but we were happy to get that considering some people I know didn't get a discount at all for their trip! I miss those 40% discounts!What's the average daily rate for CL these days?

That is why I am so thankful for my cast member rates! i have been getting 40% off lately, used to get 50%…. have that for my December trip, but I will take my 40% anytime! Being retired let’s me travel during the holidays now too and can travel with my kids and grandchildren!You can hardly find a basic hotel room with nothing included except for a bottle of water for the price you paid per night!

I’m paying rack rate for both Nov trips. I finally made the wrenching decision to do non-CL for my 2-day Xmas party trip. I keep stalking for CR CL, but I definitely can’t justify GF RPC at rack rates until the rooms are overhauled.You can hardly find a basic hotel room with nothing included except for a bottle of water for the price you paid per night!

I’ve had many a Tito’s and cranberry in Chrono’s Club. It was actually suggested to me by a CM. Guess being there four to five times a year helps.They’ll make you a mimosa, but that’s as cocktail-y as you can get. There is no hard liquor in any CL.
Just curious, you are retired and still get CM rates? I may have to work at Disney for a few years!That is why I am so thankful for my cast member rates! i have been getting 40% off lately, used to get 50%…. have that for my December trip, but I will take my 40% anytime!

I booked last minute, 3 weeks prior. I just looked for something that fit DH's vacation week.You can hardly find a basic hotel room with nothing included except for a bottle of water for the price you paid per night! That's impressive!

Yes. I worked at the Disney store for 18 years. With Disney you can retire after 15 years as long as you are 55 or older and keep all your benefits. I have my Main Gate, my husband has one and I have 3 guest passes. I keep all my discounts on dining, merchandise and rooms. I loved my part time job so much. I was a teacher full time and worked until my store closed.Just curious, you are retired and still get CM rates? I may have to work at Disney for a few years!
ps I will take 40% off anytime, too!
I just did the math in my head and that puts me at 67 if I start tomorrow not really feasible.Yes. I worked at the Disney store for 18 years.

I never knew Disney store employees got the discounts! There was a Disney store by me until it recently closed. Too late now!I just did the math in my head and that puts me at 67 if I start tomorrow not really feasible.
I got CR CL! But ack, even THOSE weekend rack rates are cringey. Coddled eggs have been on the downswing, right? Ick.I’m paying rack rate for both Nov trips.

I honestly don’t know… the big balcony on the 3rd floor was being refurbed in August, but that seems like it would be a very sideways view. Very.Also... Is there a good spot to view MK fireworks from the RPC at GF? During out GDT CL stay we loved having deserts and viewing the fireworks from the club.
Great picture…..lucky opportunity!Have always wanted to see something launched while at WDW. Lucked into it recently strolling from GF to MK (took a bit to even process what we were seeing). Pretty cool.

By any chance, do you see what type of white wine was available? What were the evening apps? Happy you enjoyed it! Thank you!Hey all, we are wrapping up a wonderful AKL CL stay. Everything was great, nothing has changed since our trip last year. I know there was some chatter of a 2 drink limit, we did not encounter this AT ALL. I'm not a big drinker but I ordered 3 mimosas this morning, at different times and had no issues at all. My DH got several beers while we were watching football last night and once again no issues. I did have a brief heart attack when this sign appeared yesterday.

Turns out it's a false alarm. Just 1 side is down. You can still make all 3 levels of nespresso as well as froth milk. Oddly enough they took it down after breakfast but I noticed it was back this morning but I once again had no issues getting my nespresso. If anyone has any questions please feel free to ask.
