I am feeling a little guilty here... It will just be DH and I. We are leaving in 119 days, that means I still have 5 days to try to get Cindy's breakfast. Have any of you adults/solos every gone? The thought of taking a spot away from a little girl who might want it makes me feel guity. But I wanna be a princess too!
Ooh, don't let that false guilt settle in! I booked Cindy's with a friend of mine, just two adults enjoying the breakfast with princesses on December 5, 2001. (Yep, Walt's 100th birthday!)
We were at a table for a party of two at the window overlooking Fantasyland. Yes, it seemed every other table had a little girl wearing a princess costume, but I wore my custom embroidered Aurora "Briar Rose" tshirt (which I bought at the 5 and 10 store at the Studios) with pride.
Go for it, I say! Because I'm sure there will still be phone races at 7am, even with the new policy, I recommend dialing early and frequently. Two phone lines helps, and if you have a cell phone, alternate with your land line. Hang up and redial if you hear the "we're not open" message.
When the "we're not open" message changes to "please wait for the next available agent" message, stay on the phone. You're in the queue, and hopefully you'll have a chance to get in. When the agent says hello, state that you want "Cinderella breakfast, party of two, first available". That worked for me.
Of course, we won't know until June 9th how difficult it will be to get a PS, but that strategy helped me. Of course now you'll have to give a deposit on your credit card after that date. Good luck!
