How long will tusker character breakfast last?

Hi,

I have Donald tusker breakfast booked on Thursday at 10:45 but my first fastpass afterwards for FOP is 11:15-12:15

Will I be ok or should I cancel the breakfast? It's our first and only character breakfast so not sure if they take longer?

You should be fine as you can be out of most of their restaurants in under an hour, but I would look to see if you can schedule it any earlier. Failing that, turn up around 10:30 and see if you can be seated early.

Also mention to your server when you're seated that you have the FP to see if the characters can come around to your table quickly. Depends where in their rounds they are, you might see them within minutes anyway.

Ok great thank you. Think I'll get there slightly earlier and mention it then. What's annoying is I had a breakfast at 9:25 and moved it to 10:45 because we wanted a more relaxed morning as we're in AK all day to watch ROL too.

I agree get there a bit early and explain... the characters on our last visit there took quite a while to work the room ... and try the glazed ham it’s delicious!

Definitely get there early. We find character meals take around 90 minutes if you want to get the full experience, see all the characters properly and not feel rushed. It’s an expensive meal if you’re paying oop you really don’t want to rush it

Thankyou all. Just once again looked on modifying my reservation and a spot at 9:45 came up so I've switched to that instead.

I had already received an email earlier today confirming my early reservation time that I changed days ago. Think this is ok to ignore?
My MDE is showing the time I chose last, the correct time.

75 minutes should be enough.

We we t on a whim on our last visit, thinking an hour would be enough, but it wasn't - we only saw Donald. Much better to leave more time.

Based on our experience last year longer than you might think. The characters stopped to do a dance mid way through service, then one or two went for a break, presumably to get a drink. WE had long finished our meal before we saw all of them, we insisted on waiting given the whole point was a character meal for our 4 y/o. WE found Chef Mickeys was much slicker with the characters

Thanks all. I managed to have breakfast meet all characters and make fast pass no problem. Also they changed our standard reservation to dining package too! It was our one and only character breakfast we loved it!
