Has anyone done this at EPCOT? Is the line usually long? Just wondering if this is worthwhile. Do you know if they do this everyday? The brochure said that days/times are subject to change.

We did this in 2005 & it was very worth it to us. We got there before it started & no one was there in line yet. We had a long time w/2 characters (I think they use the main characters, Mickey, Pluto, etc.) Both the kids & adults really enjoyed it.

We did Visa Meet & Greet twice last week, each day it was Mickey and Pluto, we spent about 5 minutes or less waiting to see the surprise characters. They were great, we spent 15 minutes or so inside with them, taking pictures, playing with kids etc. One visit was my anniversary, hubby and I had our picture taken with Mickey, a very cute picture, plus it was free!
Take advantage of this if you are going to be in Epcot, remember you can have a free picture each day if you are willing to travel to Epcot between 1:30 and 4:30 each day.:)

We did it 4 times while we were there...since we have 3 different card holders in our family, we got 3 pictures each time.

Characters were Minnie/Goofy, Mickey/Pluto and Minnie/Mickey 2x.

Also we were not happy with most of our Mickey/Pluto pictures...not centered or shot well....the people at the photo store let us get prints from our other photopass pictures.

We did the Meet and Greet at Epcot and were in line for 30 minutes. I didn't see any specific "Disney Visa" area and we just assumed we were in the right spot. No one asked to even see our D.V., so I am assuming it was all the same. Anyone know of anything different?

The Visa Meet and Greet is in one of the Innoventions buildings (on the right of Spaceship Earth). We had to show our Visa cards each time we got in line.

The longest we had to wait was about 15 minutes.

It is behind the fire truck display. And yes, you have to show your Visa, because they have to write the last 4 digits of your number on the certificate that you get for the free 5 X 7 picture.

We were not able to get the photo last time b/c we didn't have the actual cc with us. We had our rewards card so we didn't bother bring the cc. We were told we needed the actuall cc to do the photo shoot. We did it 2 years ago and got some wonderful pictures!

We did it in October & the wait was'nt bad at all. We got there around 9:30 so the line was'nt bad yet. It was worth it.
