Any tips for charector meetings?

[TheWescotts]

We are planning a trip for the fall. This trip we would like for DD6 and DD3 to get to meet and maybe get autographs from a lot of characters. I am actually planning on printing up a photo book with pictures of DD6 with characters from past trips to act as her autograph book, that way she has signed pics of her w/ them.

Anyway, what are some good tips for efficiently meeting up with lots of the characters?

Make sure you get priority characters done in the morning. Those like Rapunzel, Ariel, Tinkerbell & Fairies at MK as their lines tend to get long. If you miss them in the a.m. a good time to get in line is about 5-10 minutes before a long break ends as there won't be any stragglers from the earlier time and most people won't get in line if they don't actually see the character.

Mickey, Minnie (usually) and the Princesses (Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, & Snow White usually) now have Fastpasses available at MK. You can get both within 5 minutes of the other since Mickey isn't linked in with the others.

Get to Character Spot early at Epcot. Same with Camp at AK.

Phineas & Ferb and the Toy Story bunch are priority at DHS. Check Animation building for Sorcerer Mickey and the Incredibles. Extra characters, some rare, can be found at Characterapalooza at Animation around 4:45 on non or later Fantasmic! days.

Character meals are great for meeting several characters at once and getting fed too.
