Hey Chris! Seems as though I agree with Ricky too since Lisa and I just paid for Club MoBay yesterday, lol.
In my post I was referring to Larry and Marie, who told me they doubted they'd pay for Club Mobay this year because the Couples shuttle waited so long last April.
Either way, I'd rather be in a lounge than in a customs or immigration line!
We just booked our flights for Mid-December. Now my thoughts are turning to Club Mobay and if it'd be worth it. We'll be arriving around 11:30 AM on a Friday. My current feeling is that I should be early enough as to NOT need the arrival service. Would someone like to talk me into Mobay?

The Empress and I will be sure to save some rays and rum for you and Lisa... don't keep us waiting though... my largesse is only so great, and a man can develop a powerful thirst under that sun. See you in a couple of weeks!
Landing Friday April 18th @ 1:30 pm.........................Club Mo Bay????? It's afternoon...bad...it's April...good...what to do??

:cool
Used it several times as I have a lot of vouchers from my west jet business travels, I would definitely pay for this when leaving Mobay especially - but also quite good for arrivals to speed through the lines. Last used April 6th, 2015
Jim and Donna.... Friday is April 17th. Are you arriving Friday , or Saturday the 18th. Friday, I don't know, Saturday, I would say definitely.
Check airport flight stats to see how many flights arrive around the same time.

Personally I will always book Club Mobay. Peace of mind is worth a lot to me.
Here's this Friday's arrivals..... Should be the same for next Friday

Winter of 2014, we arrived at the airport to find our flight was delayed 4-5 hours due numerous uber storms in the U.S. and Canada that messed up the planes. We were in the departure lounge with people who had been there for more than 24 hours. We headed to Club Mobay but they politely and apologetically told us they were booked solid and could take no more guests. We were disappointed.
We were also quite impressed that they respected their capacity and ability and didn't try to stretch their resources to make a few extra bucks. Good move.
Winter 2015, we booked for departure - same time of year, and bad weather happens. It was great! I was sort of disappointed we left on time! LOL .. and couldn't further enjoy the atmosphere.
No, it isn't a 5 star restaurant. Didn't expect it. But I did like the fact that all the food was in small portions, so you could eat as little or as much as you wanted/needed, as you wanted and needed. There were 3 lounges - a quiet quiet one; a family one with a nice relax area for Parents, and a great kids play area where the kids could run/play off steam (oh, where were you when my kids were young and we were delayed ..) and a nice "regular" lounge. All had the same food and beverage service. The food was good, nice selection; varied. The staff great!
We would do it again, for sure, for departure.
Have never tried arrival, but, once we've landed, we're there, there's no snowstorm looming, so just wait in line, and enjoy the anticipation! Might do it one day, though.
Certainly recommend it for departure, particularly in winter when who knows what can be happening at home!

I personally have never spent more than 1 hour in line at arrival in the six visits last year. Always meet interesting people in line. Arrived at 11:30am on January 31st looking at 6 people in front of me and had to wait for bags. 2:30 pm is another story. For the reasons mentioned by M&G we always book return in case of delays. Nice way to end a holiday. Some hotels ( like Treehouse) sell return with 5$ off if paying cash.
