Mulan is also a fave of one of my DDs and on one of our trips I booked the Akershus breakfast specifically hoping to see Mulan but she wasn't there. Thankfully, guest services at our resort (and at MGM) were extremely helpful in finding Mulan for us so we did end up seeing her the following day around the Mickey hat at MGM and DD got her picture and autograph (with Mushu, too).
We just got back from disney over spring break, and we saw Mulan at MGM. We were walking back from the Great Movie Ride, and there she was, my DDs were so happy!!! Good Luck!
if you need to see her, go to China in Epcot. you should not bank on any character meal for one particular character. even if 1000 people before you saw her at a meal, it doesn't mean you will.
So so true! Mulan is at the breakfast and then goes over to China until around 5:55 in the evening. Not to say they won't pull her over to Norway again if they need someone for lunch/dinner but I will tell you that she is not the first in line by any means.
As another posted said, you really cannot plan on any character being at your particular meal. Mulan is part of the breakfast line up but can even be MIA there at times too.
But you can check for her at China or the Disney studios right after the Stars in Motor Cars Parade. Good luck finding her. She is a dear friend of mine!
Mulan was with us for lunch, but it was about a year ago. She was really great. Her dress was gorgeous! I asked her about it and she sarcastically remarked her mother made her wear it. She was very engaging and in character. Wherever you find her , strike up a conversation. SHe was a real treat. Be sure to engage all characters, we ask Aurora about prince phillip, cinderella about the mice etc. and there responses are always fantastic and if you run into ALice in Wonderland watch out she is amazing.
