GCH & Conceirge Level... About This Page:

[Renee1970]

I've posted this on a couple sites as we're hoping to make a decision tomorrow...

We are looking for comments and/or opinions on the GCH and the conceirge level...
- what exactly are you paying "extra" for?
- do you always get a room a great view?
- are kids made to feel really special during the evening story?
- are there large crowds to watch fireworks from the lounge?
We are seriously considering this option but wowza! is it expensive!!
I need to book it within the next day or two as we're coming towards the end of March. Actually, have a question about that as well. Do I use a vacation planner for this (someone to talk to directly) or should I just do it online?
Just so many questions!
