Akershus if already eating at CRT?

[carriedawn]

I know we will be eating at CRT and I was thinking about making an adr for Akershus. Would we being seeing the same princesses twice? Would you do both or just stick with CRT? Also if I make the reservation at Akershus at 8:00 do you think we will make it out by rope drop?

While there is a certain possibility you will see some if not all of the same princesses at both meals, if you have princess fans in your family I say go for it! We have lunch reservations at CRT on our arrival day and lunch reservations at Akershus the next day in May. DS and DD really do love the princesses and they will only be this magical age for a short time.

We did both in Sept and are doing both in May. We did lunches in Sept & are doing breakfasts in May. You will see the majority of the same princesses at both. At CRT, Cinderella greets, Jasmine, Belle in blue dress, Aurora & Snow White are most likely the crew. At Akershus, Belle in her yellow dress, Aurora, Ariel, Cinderella & Snow White are most likely there. So you see Jasmine at CRT & Ariel at Akershus. However, DD3 was all about the princesses so she loved it!! We also so the princesses at MK, Epcot WS, etc. We really enjoyed both meals. DD requested we go back to the castle, and we loved Akershus so are doing that again. We have an 8:00 breakfast at Akershus & hope to be done by rope drop!!

We did both with dd then just turned 3 in July, but enjoyed the Princess more at Akershus and are planning to go back in April!

If your kids are really into princesses and it doesn't get too pricey, go for it! We did Arkeshus dinner and 1900 PF dinner last September with DS8, DD7 and DD3. We were on the regular DDP and like to use our TS credits for dinners, so I paid out-of-pocket for CRT breakfast for just the girls while DS and DH went to DTD to the Lego store. The DD's really enjoyed the princess interaction at all 3, and I don't regret doing them all. However, this Sept. DS9 has requested no princess meals for him So, the DD's and I will do CRT while the DS and DH do O'hana breakfast at the Poly.

I was really torn between CRT and Arkeshus breakfast, but we're only going to do one, and the DD's chose CRT. If I could fit both in, I would. Another nice thing about doing both too is that you will get your photo with Cinderella at CRT and Belle at Arkeshus.

We've done both but really prefer Akershus. Better food, great character interaction.. just great.
And we've seen different princesses at the breakfasts, so you may see some variation there... we've seen Mulan, Mary Poppins, Ariel, Belle, Aurora, Jasmine at Akershus.

We did both last September and are doing both again this year. We enjoyed them both for different reasons.

I wouldn't worry about it, on our December trip we went to Akershus Breakfast, CRT breakfast, and 1900 Park Fare Dinner. We had a blast at all 3 of them

LOL! I forgot, we're doing the 1900 Park Fare dinner too. Love them all!

We did both last May. Being in the Castle is fantastic and in Norway you have a little more time and room. Besides you get two very different private Picture meet n greets one with Belle and one with Cindy. My daughter wouldn't have missed either. As a matter of fact we are doing them both again this year just different meals. Breakfast at the Castle so we can see the park empty and dinner at Norway getting out in time for illuminations. Along with the Pirates league and Pirates and Pals cruise for DS since he is tolerating so many princesses

We are hoping to get ADRs for 1900 Park Fare, Akershus and CRT! Talk about princess overload possibilities! But hey, it's DD's birthday trip. She doesn't like the dress up thing so we aren't doing BBB. Figure we will try for as much princess interaction as possible though!!

If you can afford it, go for it. One year we did CRT, Akershus adn 1900 Park Fare all in 1 week It was fun and my daughter is really into princess stuff so she LOVED it! We were on the DP so it was money we had alredy decided to spend and Im glad we spent it that way. Have fun!
