Character wait times?

[SG131]

Can anyone give me an idea of what to expect regarding character wait times for the Disney junior characters at HS and princesses at Epcot at lower crowd times (late August early Sept)? If the lines are all 45+ min long I will have to rearrange the schedule a bit.

the Disney Jr. characters aren't usually bad, maybe 15 minutes or less. For a princess like Belle at Epcot, you'll want to line up before she's scheduled to come out. Same for Alice. Snow White is probably easier to meet at MK.

Character meets do tend to take a long time. I remember spending an hour waiting for my son to meet Tinker Bell, & that was late in the evening. This is why we do so many character meals, to kill two birds with one stone. Too bad that Anna & Elsa don't have a restaurant.

Their wait in the afternoon is usually not too bad anymore. We waited about 15 minutes around 2:00 in April. they greatly improved that since they moved from MK.

I had askershus scheduled to hit some of the princesses and then when I was trying to modify the time MDE froze and my reservation got canceled. I called and talked to a manager but they said there's nothing they can do cause something is going on with Akershus so no new reservations can be made. Now onto the backup plan....

Thanks, I can keep my H&V reservation as a dinner then, I was debating.

H&V isn't Disney Jr characters at dinner. It's Minnie and Friends in seasonal dress. And I think Sept 4th Minnie and friends start at lunch too. So Disney Jr only for breakfast.

Yeah. I prefer the dinner but we are going before the lunch switch so if character wait times were too long I would switch to lunch.
