what characters did you see on board?

Can you tell me which Disney characters you saw for pics and autographs? Were there any Princesses?

Also, any tips on when is the best time to get autographs? I realize there are several time slots during the cruise. What has been your experience?

Thanks in advance.

All the above were on the 5/12 Wonder. Add Donald Duck and the Chipmunks. The autograph times and pictures are posted in the Navigators. You have to get there early because lines form and they do stick to the schedules and will finish even if people are still on line. Keep the camera with you and ready because you might just bump into one of the characters as you are walking around the ship.

also saw Cinderella and Snow White. We always went a little earlier than the actual start time to the autograph sessions because the lines get long fast!

We were on your cruise too! It was great....inspite of the rain, don't you agree?

I also think I saw "Wendy" at the autograph table one afternoon.

All of the above!! We just loved our 8x10 of Mickey and Minnie dressed up on formal night!!!! You have different characters and backdrops that night. I suggest getting several pictures with each!

We had seen plenty of characters on the 6/8 western cruise. The one complaint I had is we had very little opportunity to get our own photos. Disney photogs are all over the place and they are trying to get their own photos before we could get our own. I can understand not getting photos for the backdrop pictures, but I would think they would be a little more accomodating on the character picts. This was most pronounced at the character breakfast. Characters would pose for the Disney photog. and quickly move on. I can appreciate people wanting the Disney pictures, but one can rack up a small fortune in pictures if you used them for everything (which I sure is what they want you to do).

Thanks for that info so I will have my camera ready

It is true that you they will always take a picture of you and the characters that will be on sale at Shutters, but I've never seen anyone rushed so that they couldn't get their own pictures. Just like at the parks, some places have Disney photographers but I've always found getting a picture with your own camera isn't ever a problem.

They also have a big board in the Atrium by the elevators (across from Lumiere's) that list the characters appearing that day. It lists the character, place and time.

The reason it seems that the characters are rushing is because they are forced to. Most character meals are extremely busy, and the characters are required to see a minimum percent of the restaurant in a 45 min set (generally 75%-100% depending on the restaurant). So if it seems that the characters are rushing, it's not that they don't like you.. it's that their jobs may depend on it.
