Anyone know if there is a schedule for when Kevin comes out at ak or is it just random?

I was there a few weeks back and asked, no schedule, but I was told she doesn't come out when there are performers on the stage nearby.

I really wish they would do a real Meet and Greet with her, rather than just have her just wandering around.

Disney World Cast Members Now Required to Ask Guests If They Will Use Disney Visa Card at Checkout​

Walt Disney World Cast Members are now required to ask each guest if they will be using a Disney Visa Rewards Card upon checkout.

The new procedure seems to have begun this weekend, according to the Cast Members we spoke with. While guests may encounter Cast Members who forget or have not been trained in the new policy yet, we expect to see this become the standard across property.

Ugh I hate when stores do that. It's DISNEY...not Kohl's.

It would be nice if this is just a reminder to use the card for a discount. I always ask if they have a Disney Visa discount and 9 out of 10 say no, so that's not driving it.

It's a shame CMs are now in the "up sell" business.

How is it an upsell? They're asking if you're using your Disney card not asking if you want to apply for one.

No one has to answer if they don't want to or just shake your head. It's not a big deal.

No idea but was nice to see/dream.

but maybe the next question will be "if you apply for a card today you can have XXX amount off". The only reason to ask about using the credit card is is there is some sort of incentive for the cashier. At Kohls, the cashiers get something each time they get someone to apply.
