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!
 
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.
