It's been years since we've done a Disney Visa meet and greet, and that was at Epcot. I'm trying to decide if it's worth it.

How do you receive your free photo/s now, if you don't have photopass? Are they accessible through your Disney online account or do they email them to you?

Is the line usually pretty long, especially for the Star Wars meet and greet?

At DCA, will we be able to see which character is there? My DD would love to meet Daisy but would not want to get near Stitch.

I'm not sure what you mean by not having Photopass; you don't have to buy Maxpass to get your Disney Visa photos. The photographer will hand you a free Photopass card. You can view the photos online. They won't email them to you.
You'll want to get your 5x7 prints done same day before you leave the Park to get $2 prints and add the Star Wars border for Star Wars Meet & Greet, and DCA borders for DCA Meet & Greet. You can get prints at the photoshop in either park, the one in DCA is usually less busy. You can still access all of the photos to download for 30 days, including the ones you print out.

The line depends on when you go, but we've never waited more than 3 families deep for either Meet & Greet.
 
The lines aren't usually long and you can't see the characters at DCA but you can ask the CM if Daisy is there or when she will be.
 
On Thursday, we met Daisy at DCA and Boba Fett at DL. There was no one else in line ahead of us.

The only Visa M&G that I've ever seen a line longer than 5 minutes for was at Epcot last year. It was 40 to 60 minute wait for an unidentified character (they wouldn't say what character it is because it could change before you get to the front of the line).

We decided to skip that one. I couldn't believe there were so many people that chose to wait. My only guess was that the line was inside, in ice cold air conditioning, and it was HOT outside (as always).

40-60 mins?! For an unknown character?! Yeah- no.

I was astounded - especially because we had done several Visa meet & greets with no waits before.

I can't figure it out, to this day. If I knew I would remember it for this long, I would have tried asking someone what they were thinking.

Has Boba Fett been meeting Disney Visa M&G often? I'd love to see a new Star Wars character - we have so many with Kylo Ren and Chewie.

I really have no idea. I wasn't expecting him for the Visa m&g.

Before this, the Cast Member at the Anna and Elsa meet and greet line said you could meed Boba Fett at the Launch Bay in Disneyland. He was not aware I had the Disney Visa, so maybe Boba Fett sometimes meets at the regular spot, too.
 
Boba Fett sometimes meets in the Cantina area, which is just to the left when you're facing the Visa M&G podium inside Launch Bay. Unlike the other 2 standing M&G this one is out in the open, so if he's greeting that day the character will rotate in and out and only come out a few times during the day.
