Princesses -other- than the gathering

[Peaseblossom36]

Are princesses out at times other than the princess gathering to meet?

I completely messed this up and am incredibly upset about it. My daughter will be heartbroken to see others getting to meet them and missing out on doing it. This was a huge fail on my part.

Yes. Individual princesses should be out various times during your cruise. You'll be able to see the full schedule of character appearances in the navigator app once on board.

1. As soon as you get to theterminal, connect to the shipwifi and go to add onboard activities. New openings are added the day of the sailing. If nothing there, go to gr to be added to the waiting list!

2. Seperate princesses: it depends on the length of your cruise and your ship how easy it will be to catch the other princesses but each princess should at least be once on the navigator for a regular 'queue' meet. Usually while royal gathering is on they have one of the other princesses doing a regular meet or strolling around (the balcony and deck 5 are popular spots to find them on the Dream and Fantasy at that time)

Just let the CM's know you want to get in on the Meet and greet. they've always been able to add people. Even at the time of the Meet and greet.

Check with guest services on day 1 to see if there are any slots available for the royal gathering.

The princesses do run separate meet and greets, we never did them though because the lines were longer than my 3 year old could handle.

The cm handling the rg wil not be able to. Its the cm at guest relations but you should go as soon as you can and not wait til rg happens

Thank you all! I’m feeling pretty awful about messing this one up, so I’m glad to know there’s at least individual greets if we can’t get tickets. The trip is over/for her birthday and the one thing she asked was to see Ariel so fingers crossed.

I’m definitely going to check when we get there too, I’ve already told my husband he’ll have to take everyone to eat while I go.

And if it all fails, avoid the atrium when the meet happens. This to avoid your daughter getting disappointed if she cannot join. Go see a movie, go for a long swim. What she doesn't know, she cannot get disappointed over.

Oh I feel you, I told myself: I can make it to midnight!

Narrator: She did not make it to midnight, she fell asleep at 1130 and then woke up at 1 AM.

What ship are you sailing on cause Ariel is not ones of the 'on every ship characters.. She s a regular on the Wonder and I ve had her on all my Dream cruises but the other ships is hit or miss....

The worst part is I was awake but it’s been such a stressful week I forgot about the hour time difference I remembered at 11:30 and rushed on and every single day was sold out.

We randomly ran into Mulan. She was just walking around the atrium!

 

[PAGA2003]

Our last sailing on the Magic was only a 3 night and I was shocked that the only princess that had a meet and greet outside of the Royal Gathering was Rapunzel and even then she was only out 2 or 3 times! I have never seen that occur before on our other three sailings we've done. Usually there are many other times to meet them. Hopefully your sailing isn't like that! Definitely logon as soon as you get to the port as I know many people have luck that way.

We’re on the Fantasy. Ariel is her favorite (consistently over a few years now) but I think if “she’s away visiting her family” she would be happy to meet anyone. I'm hoping we luck into bumping into characters. My last cruise in 2019 Daisy came and sat down on the couch with us by the future cruise desk.

I will definitely be checking to see if anything pops up and going to the desk. I was hoping to get it for the day we do BBB, so fingers crossed.

I don't think Ariel is currently on the Fantasy, at least I haven't seen pics of her yet. I know for a fact Mulan is. Fantasy is pretty consistent with having one princess out in free m&g while royal gathering is going on. I have never had issues with seperate pruincess meets on the Fantasy but those were all 7n. On 5n cruises my experience of the Dream is they all do at least one, but not plenty. There is also the Sea ya real soon which includes three of the princesses. You can go for a quick m&g to that as well.

During the scheduled princess meets in the atrium and balcony , there sometimes a roaming princess just walking around deck 4 atrium balcony, at the stairs or elevators areas.

I'd definitely be prepared for that excuse. I've been on the 4 original ships and don't remember seeing Ariel on any of them. It's been a while, but... Whether she's there or not would depend on if someone in that entertainment cast is friends with her.

Ran into Belle in her Christmas dress on the Dream just over a year ago. She was "out and about".

I know for sure Ariel is currently on the Magic
