Disney Visa?

[Dsnymouse]

Has anyone done the character meet and greet for Disney Visa holders?
What character where there and did you think it was worth it?
We are new Disney Visa holders and wanted some input. Thanks!

I have done this once, last December. DH and I waited all of 8 minutes to see Mickey, Minnie, and Goofy. They were in their normal attire even though it was the week before Christmas, and we got about 5 minutes with them. They took lots of photos for us to pick from, and we laughed because they (silently) made fun of DH's age and Minnie picked a fight with Mickey over her lack of engagement/wedding rings (we had on Anniversary and Birthday buttons since we were celebrating both). It's only open for a few hours, though, so peak travel times are bound to have longer waits.

I keep forgetting to this! I would like more details please. Where is it located? Is there one free picture or something like that? I know that there was a thread for this, but I can't remember where it is.

It's in Innovations West, if I remember correctly. They do it daily from 1-4 or something like that. One free 5X7 per card. They do track the cards, too. And photos are available 1-2 hours after they are taken.

Is this just a walkin anytime thing or is it scheduled?

 

[MissBritt]

You walk in and get a place in line. That's when they write down your name and card number and give you a reciept for pick-up.

We try to do it every trip.

We actually get a nice picture where we can wait inside and stay cool.

It is hard to get something free from Disney, so take advantage...

We did it on our last trip, we had Minnie, Goofy, & Pluto. Got some really cute photos & were able to do some customization (signatures) on our free 5x7. Definitely worth it. Just be aware that you have to pick up your free photo in the park that day, so be sure to leave time to do that before park closing.

Thanks everyone for the response. I forgot you get a photo! I would really like to do a Disney photo card for Christmas, this might be just the ticket

We have met various combinations of two or three characters: Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and Pluto. They will not tell you what characters are there, so it is a surprise when you enter. My kids love this character meet because it is private.

You get one free photo per account per day. We do this every time we are in Epcot between 1:30 and 4:30-- usually 3 times per trip.

free photo per day? So I have an account and I will be in Epcot one day, and Hollywood studios the next. I can get 2 free 5x7 pictures with my Disney Visa??

Nevermind. I just saw where Innovations West was in Epcot. So this offer is only valid in Epcot?

You would have to travel back to EPCOT as that is the only place they offer it. They don't have one in every park
