Character M&G times listed in guide

[raraavis]

I've never done character meet and greets before, but now I have a 5 yr old who wants to meet princesses. My question is how long are they generally out there after the time listed in the times guide? For instance, Mulan's last meeting time in Epcot is listed as 4:50pm this week. In general, about what time would she still be out there greeting? The time before her last one is 3:50, so an hour before. If they have an hour in between listed times, how much time is given to meet and greets and how much time is given for a break? Thanks!

If you look in the app, it lists the end times (which I assume are reasonably accurate). Here’s a screenshot of what it shows today, for example:



Hope that helps!

I read "end times" & immediately thought apocalypse.

To the OP:

Just note it can be hard to time the princesses at EPCOT without doing a back & forth through World Showcase. By which I mean if you meet one and then you get to the nearest one as it ends, you'll have to wait that hour for the next meet. Or you can go to another one starting a little later then backtrack to the one you missed.

Also, it's a good idea to get in line 10-15 mins before the start times for some of them. Belle and Mulan in particular can have their lines cut off early in the meet or before the official start time even begins.

Thank you! This is all new to me, so I appreciate the tips!

So do you plan to visit all the princesses regularly available or specific ones?

You can pretty much see all of them except Moana, who's only there during special events.

Yeah, Moana is one of her favorite, but we already knew we wouldn't be able to meet her

Our plan for meet and greets is very lax. If a character is around when we are in that country, then we'll try to meet them.
