Will I make it?

[SandiKB]

We have a 5:20 BBB in the Castle, then an 8pm at Akershus, I should be able to make it over in time right? Please say yes, lol

This will be a tight fit. BBB will take about 30-45mins depending on which Fairy Godmother you have and what package you select. From the moment you finish there walk to transportation (Bus or Monorail) and get into Epcot it will be another 60-75min. Then about 30 Mins to get from there to Akershus. So yeah you should make it with at least 20mins to spare but in Disney that 20 min window can go away in the blink of an eye.

You should be able to make it though and that will be Awesome for your little Princess!!! HAVE FUN!!

I don't have think you'll have trouble with the timing. Are you going to Epcot for other reasons as well? It would be so much easier if you could find a cancellation for dinner in the castle. It just seems more fun to go play in the park instead of leaving right away.

Unless something has changed since last summer, they do a photo shoot after BBB, which can take a while (30 min or so) as you may have to wait in line.

Thanks I'm trying daily for an earlier BBB or later Akershus!

It's a party night, I'm not sure how late they are doing reservations, also our budget only allows for one special meal for her and she wants to see ALL the princesses, LOL

I think you'll be fine on time. But just to be on the safe side, I would check in at BBB around 5:20 and let them know your time constraints.

I hope she has a great day!

You are cutting it way too close. From the time you get off of the bus/monorail at Epcot to the time you arrive at Akershus is easily 20-30 minutes after bag check and the walk (particularly with a kiddo dressed as a princess). I wouldn't do this. You are setting yourself up for being super stressed out. Plus, is BBB something that runs on-time? What if they're 30 min behind schedule by then?

 

[Jadyreen1282]

That's cutting it close. If there is a Thunderstorm on your way the monorail could shut down. I'd take the bus or have a taxi waiting. Take an umbrella or poncho for her.

CRT would be a better bet with that time frame.

Would it be any faster to take transportation to either The Boardwalk or Beach Club then walk to Norway? Or taxi to Beach Club and walk to Norway?

I hope you are able to change one of those times!

If it makes a difference, we will have our car, so we can drive. I do have a morning reservation at Disney Springs for 11:20 which I haven't cancelled as yet, I was just really hoping for the castle experience.

The Disney Springs time is much better.

 

[Disney Khaleesi]

The Disney Springs time is much better.

The time is better, but I think the experience in the Castle is more worth it.

OP, if you have a car, you should be able to make it in time. It will be close, but doable if you don't dawdle.

Keep in mind that BBB often runs a bit behind schedule, especially later reservations. That said... I would still chance it! Even if you are a little bit late to dinner, they'll usually still seat you
