Does Disneyland have a Disney Chase visa meet & greet at Launch bay?

Do they have a Disney Chase Visa meet & greet time at the Launch Bay at Disneyland? I know we have done them at WDW. If so do you know the times and what character?

I haven't taken advantage of it myself but both DL and DCA has it. I don't know which characters but I'm sure someone else can chime in about that. Here's the details for DL:

"Darth Vader awaits visitors of all ages at Star Wars Launch Bay. From 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM"

DCA: https://disneyland.disney.go.com/en...nia-adventure/visa-card-character-experience/

Agree with above! When we went, they ushered us into a room and within a minute, Darth Vader came in. He had the most incredible costume on, and was TALL! He spoke directly to our four year old son who was in absolute heaven. They chatted for about two minutes, we took some pictures, and he was gone. It was the highlight of my son's life.

I met Lord Vader last month using the Disney Chase Visa express line, and I second the above comments. He is an excellent character to meet. Very elaborate, movie-accurate costume, large and in charge, and does a lot of talking. I remember thinking that younger kids might be a little weirded out to see him up close.

Just wanted to add that Darth Vader acts exactly like you would expect Darth Vader to act. If you're wearing Star Wars apparel that features heroic characters, Vader will warn you about your allegiances and/or invite you to join the Dark Side. It's an incredible meet and greet, but people have complained about going to meet a villain who then proceeded to act like a villain. Furthermore, Star Wars characters do not sign autographs if you enjoy those.

My understanding is that they do multiple characters at the DCA one. Do you meet them all or is it just different characters at different days or times?

So basically if you have a Disney chase Visa you can skip the line? Ugh, wish I would have known this! We love meeting Darth Vader, one of my favorite M&G!

I don't think that it's skipping a line insomuch as a separate entry altogether for card holders (from what I've read). I'm not entirely sure about that though.

Yes, it’s a separate entry completely. At DCA it’s Stitch, Pluto, or Minnie. At least last time we checked. We always stalk the DCA one for Stitch, he’s my son’s favorite.

At risk of sounding ridiculous, is there a method to this? Stitch is my fav and I've been hesitant to go just because I don't want to have to keep checking back till he's available.

There really isn’t from what I’ve found. Unless someone has a trick they’d like to share! And the cast member won’t tell you who it is either you just have to wait and see.
