That's great! Congrats!

Oops. I thought last appointment was at 3. I'm guessing it's different on MNSSHP nights? What time does it end on those?

I would hope Disney has higher standards and either cleans the brushes or changes the paint between children, but does anyone know for sure?

Yes - I know for sure. Mermaid/Empress being the exception, no other brush touches two Guest faces. They use disposable brushes/sponges for each Guest. In the case of the female looks, brushes are washed with an alcoholic cleanser between Guests.

The paints themselves are also sanitized between each Guest and the pencils are resharpened for a fresh surface. The Pirate Masters will do ALL of this in front of you, feel free to ask if you have any questions.

Brilliant. I knew someone would have an answer. I called PL and found out the paint they use is called Ben Nye.

Product info is listed on the first post, including the type of Ben Nye product that is used.

Why the difference with the mermaid/empress package? Just curious.

Mermaid/Empress use professional brushes due to the eye shadow application. There are no disposable brushes that have the same fullness needed to create the looks - we've tried (and it was horrible).

I do not... sorry! I do not know if the poster was talking about a DRC (phone) CM or one that works at the actual league.

She told me while I was having my pirate makeover done.

Finished my invitations for the kids....they are going to be so excited. I made some invitations for them to join the crew, going to give it to them after breakfast that morning Should be lots of fun.

I can't wait to see what package each of them choose.....and I'm so glad it's cheaper than our BBB visit LOL

I read the first post and had a couple of questions.

1) We ordered the Photopass + and it says you get a 5x7 in that. I want all their photos added to our Photopass + card though, so do I still have to purchase a photo? And if I have to purchase the first one does the 14.95 include tax?

2) I have 4 children doing this. They were able to get 2 in at one time and then the other 2 are 10 minutes later. So will DH and I be separated when we go in to the 'room'? Just trying to figure out photos and such since we only have 1 Photopass + card.

I'll try to give you the simple explanation.

1- You get a photopackage for each person made over and any extra pictures that are taken can be added to your photopass+ (just like dining photos) with the code on the edge of the picture. I've heard of a couple of people that the photos were automatically uploaded and a couple who did it themselves the old way. You will not pay for any Pirate's League photos (unless you want duplicate photopackages of the same child).

2- I believe that you can ask to wait for the rest of your party before going into the secret room and the same would apply to the photo taking.

When we were there last week they did not put the photos on the photopass. They said NO it's not included. I am so sad because they did it last time.

It is not included on the regular Photopass unless you purchase the print. If you have the print, there should be a number on the photo that you can enter into your Photopass account. PL photos are only included with the Photopass+.

 

[snowangel72]

I bought the print. THANK YOU! I will check. Yippppeeeee

no number Last year it was on a slip of paper

 

[TheRatPack]

Yea, we bought the Photopass PLUS so it said it was included on that. I just didn't know if you had to still purchase a 5x7 to get the rest of the photos uploaded or if they uploaded them all. Thanks for the explanation

We did Pirates 7/12 with Photopass + with 5 young adults.

2. While they were scheduled 10 minutes apart with 2, 2, & 1 we were all able to go back at the same time including this DM DA & DU. It was so much fun watching them be done up.

1. Because I had Photopass + I got one copy printed out of their individual photosesion whichI shared with my DSIL. They took all 5 of them into the room togehter. At the front of the pirates league they said they weren't included but when I showed them my pass where you purchase the photos at the end of the session they said they were & we got them Please just make sure you have your photopass + lanyard with you. You do need to stop at the photo place at the front of the park to get them added but its easy to do.

Also if you go back for the parade later in the day They take lots more photos of them. Have a great time

 

[TheRatPack]

Thank you....I'll make a note to make sure we go back for the parade. And that I have to go to the front of the park to get the digital copies uploaded.....but they do give you a photo as well, correct? That's awesome!

I'm so glad we pre-ordered the Photopass +

 

[Jillianv29]

If u preorder the photo pass plus do they send it to you in the mail? Guess I should order in plenty of time for my trip??

They send you a voucher to redeem at one of the Photopass places in the parks or DTD along with the Gallery CD and the coupon code for the free CD.

Any chance you'd like to share your invite? I plan on giving my nephews a card on Christmas with info on their Pirates League appointment but not sure what info to include! I'd love to see examples!
