Ariel at Akershus in Norway??? Does anyone know if Ariel ever shows there for the character meals and if so is it breakfast, lunch or dinner?

We saw her there last year in her ballgown. I don't think she is guaranteed but we also saw her there 3 years ago at breakfast as well.

She was there this past Feb - she was out front as you entered the restaurant greeting everyone. There was also the PhotoPass photographer there taking pictures of everyone.

Princesses that came to the table for visits were Belle, Mulan, Aurora and Jasmine.

That's funny I heard Aerial is at Lunch or dinner only not breakfast? I was told Belle is at breakfast in her gown at the front entrance. If anyone knows for sure please post we have breakfast ADR's there and I thought Belle was the greeter. DD loves Aerial too. Just wondering what costume would be best for DD.

I saw her and her legs (she showed them to dd..lol) at dinner last year. She was wearing her ball gown then.

Ariel was only added last Summer and Belle in her yellow gown was added the end of last year.

The schedule is always subject to change but Belle in her yelllow gown is usually at breakfast (although some have seen her at dinner) and Ariel is usually at lunch and dinner.

We saw Ariel twice last year both at lunch in Oct and Dec.

Last Sept. (19th-DD 6th bday) for late lunch we had Ariel, Aurora, Belle (peasant dress), Jasmine, and Cinderella. This was our first lunch since there since the added princesses. We've had breakfast there twice. Ariel hadn't been added yet. We did see Cinderella one of the bfast. We've never seen a princess out front. Maybe they're there when it first opens?

Hope this helps.

Last week Ariel was there is the foyer wearing a dress. This was for lunch.

We saw her last Tuesday night (5/30/06) at dinner. She was in the foyer taking pictures. She did not make table rounds. She was wearing her ball gown. She was really pretty. We also saw Aurora, Jasmine, Belle, and one of my favorites that I had not ever seen....Esmeralda!

OOOO....thanks for this. This would be a great addition to my itinerary and help me fill what I think are the last gaps. Would also make my two sets of 2-day commando runs a bit easier to handle

Ariel was there during Lunch in October. As we entered Akershus she signed autographs and took pictures. During your meal they bring the pictures to you. DD pictures turned out so good we couldn't resist buying them. For $29.99 we recieved a 8x10 and four 5X7 's. I hope this helps!!

We have been twice for breakfast. Once in 2003 when it first started and once in 2005. Ariel was not at either. I know she is not guaranteed to be there, but if she is, she will be in her white wedding gown. Each year was the same --- Aurora, Snow White, Mulan, Belle, and Jasmine.

I seen that someone replied that Cinderella was their one time and someone else replied that Ariel was there the first year in 2003. I was told that Ariel was only added last summer and that Cinderella is never at the Breakfast. So what we are told and what actually happens may be two different things.

Cinderella is a fill in from time to time and not on a regular schedule.

Ariel in her green gown was added last Spring (April 10 to be exact) and Belle in the yellow gown (in the foyer) was added last Fall/October. They are both now in the foyer for the photo package.

Originally, Ariel used to circulate but since they added the photo package and Belle in her yellow gown, she (and Belle, yellow gown) no longer circulates (as of Oct 2005). If it's late and the photographer is gone for the day, then they may circulate.

We went three times last Sept for dinner and Aerial was there in her ball gown each time. As was Cinderella, Peasant Bell, Jasmine and Aurora. No one was in the foyer. We went late 740ish pm and the Princesses made more than one tour of the room. There weren't more that 10 or so other tables taken and this was during free dining!

We had lunch at Akershus last October. Ariel was taking pictures in the front in a seafoam green gown. Circulating in the dining areas were Cinderella in her blue gown, Belle in her peasant clothing, Jasmine (possibly in purple), and Aurora in a pink gown. They were so great! My camera died when Cinderella came by and she offered to come back when I changed the battery. We got wonderful pictures.

I don't think you can be sure of any specific princess being at your meal, they rotate them. I made ADR's at CRT this year and I'm kind of regretting it because we enjoyed the experience at Akershus so much. Definitely give it a try!
