Epcot question

[KMH79]

We are going October 30-November 5th and doing 1 day in Epcot. How long are the lines for Belle, Snow White, Mulan, Aladdin and Jasmine, and the Summerhaus. Would we be able to get all of them done from 12-5 pm?

 

[ErinsMommy]

I've always seen people lining up 15 minutes in advance for Belle and Aladdin/Jasmine and the line usually gets cut off by a CM. I've never seen the lines for Mulan or Snow White so can't comment on them.

 

[AngiTN]

Maybe. Your first hurdle will be meeting times. They are not continual, except for the Frozen sisters
Belle is going to have a very long line most all the time, usually at it's cut off before the time starts.
Snow isn't too bad but can be cut off shortly after it starts.
We've not done Aladdin and Jasmine in a while so not sure about them.
Mulan isn't usually too bad either.
The Frozen sisters won't have a long line

 

[KMH79]

Ok, thanks. I'll focus on Aladdin/Jasmine. We are doing dinner at Akershus so I don't think my girls will care if it's yellow or blue Belle. I'll see where we are time wise for Mulan and Snow. We are doing Akershus for dinner so I might focus on Mulan more than Snow White.

 

[ErinsMommy]

Snow White is at Akershus as well.

 

[ErinsMommy]

And I've also seen Aladdin with Jasmine at MK by the magic carpet ride. So you may be able to catch them there. At Akershus, it'll be Jasmine without Aladdin.

 

[KMH79]

Yeah, but my daughters just watched snow white on tv and are obsessed so they might get upset if she needs to take a break while we're there and a different princess shows up.

 

[AngiTN]

Snow White is at Akershus as well.

Maybe. Maybe not. Who is there is never assured as they rotate based on need and/or who is available that day. Just about the only assured Princess is Belle in her yellow dress but even she has been out on rare occasion and replaced by another Princess. I'd hate for anyone to go thinking they'll get Snow White for sure

 

[ErinsMommy]

Yeah, but my daughters just watched snow white on tv and are obsessed so they might get upset if she needs to take a break while we're there and a different princess shows up.

Just a suggestion, maybe try and switch around Akershus to be a breakfast or early lunch so if you do see Snow White there you have one less princess to wait in line for in the park and have a better shot at catching up with Mulan and can get in more rides and such as well. Just a thought! (PS: I know Akershus is a beast to get an ADR for, but they do come up esp the night before when people move their plans around). Good luck!

 

[AngiTN]

That is a good idea. There is even a decent chance you can see Mulan and/or Jasmine at Akershus. We've seen both there (though not at the same time)

I can't comment on the length of the line but when we were there last week they were turning people in the Jasmine/Aladdin away saying they reached their limit. It was 73 or 83, can't remember which but I remember thinking what a strange number.

Leave it to Disney to be that exact. I'm sure they have some sort of avg number of minutes each person typically spends with a character and use that to stipulate how many can see them during that session, keeping to the range of acceptable time the character can be on duty. Though one has to wonder, since it's pretty rare for an entire party to wait together, just how they determine how long a given group will be. I mean, it may be just dad standing there with Mom, Grandma and 7 kids standing off somewhere else. Clearly, they'll take more time than just a guy alone would.

Is the line for Mulan like a meet 'n' greet in a specific area? We won't just see her around the park, I'm guessing?

Mulan meets in China. You will not see her wandering around. SHe is one of my favorites. Very sweet.

OP- I would also suggest moving Akershus to breakfast. Once you do, you will know who you need to look for in the parks.

In the MK, I saw Snow White and Aurora near the Town Hall. One in front of Guest Services, and the other by Tink's M&G.

 

[Ambehnke]

One thing I can comment on is that somerhaus is super quick!

 

[AMusicLifeForMe]

I have only met Aladdin/Jasmine once. If you end up outside the building they are in, it will be at least a 45 minute wait. I don't have any other experience with the other characters, but I pass by Belle a lot and her line doesn't seem to bad.
