How are they handling the platinum breakfast amenity? (Coupon for cafe or restaurant if open)
Are the friendship boats still running on same schedule? (Not running at all)
Are pools open? (Most pools are open)
Any recent travel reports from Swan/Dolphin are appreciated.

Suite Night Upgrades - Swan
Was booked for Dolphin for September just received email being moved to Swan. I had submitted for Suite Night Upgrades for our stay. Reservation states still pending. Any one have luck getting these to go through? None of my stays this summer have they been accepted. I have 10 expiring end of year that now seem worthless.
What other benefits exist for Titanium at this property?

as for the SNA, don’t count on anything above a Governor’s Suite at the Swan (I got one once. Nice, but way too huge for one person).

I believe they still give out a small silver “Mickey” logo pin that you can wear so staff can identify you for special treatment. I have a ton of them

I’ve gotten them on every stay for at least the last 4 years. Not sure if longer. A few other properties do something similar. The JW in Palm Springs gives Titaniums a little pin. Frankly, I never bother eating them.

Staying at the swan now:
no pin (gone)
Dolphin is open
restaurants are open at reduced capacity
NO housekeeping! They claim you can request it on demand and they will clean your room. I requested, they did not. I pointed this out. $75 credit and promise to call housekeeping manager. Still no housekeeping. I think they’re trying to match the Disney hotels which aren’t doing housekeeping (as I understand it, they’re matching DVC)
Face mask compliance among guests is very good
no friendship boats. They do have busses as a substitute.
no suite upgrades (not SNAs, just suite upgrades) for LTT). I was “upgraded” to a larger king balcony room. I’m familiar with the rooms in the hotel. It’s a standard king balcony room. View of the dolphin and nothing else.
Swan reserve construction is going strong. Still on target for next year. Staff didn’t know how closely tied to Swan it would be (I specifically asked about upgrades from Swan to swan reserve. I’m sure that’s not happening.) looks very nice but definitely not the same style as swan dolphin. It’s the modern “mine craftsman” style.
