I was under the impression that there was multiple rooms at Princess Fairytale Hall so there is more than one set of Anna & Elsa greeting at any one time.
I've also read that they were having trouble finding Elsas. The move to Princess Fairytale Hall was necessary for bigger capacity and Fastpass but they should have kept the Norway meet and greet alongside it. |

I posted earlier in this thread that I don't normally make an effort to meet characters and getting photos with them isn't normally a major thing for me. But in response to it not being as important to grown-ups to meet characters I thought I'd post the following...
On my first return to Disneyland California as an adult, I chanced upon Chip and Dale taking photos with people in the park. I would have been pretty devastated if I'd been told I couldn't take a photo with them. Why? Because I'd been there as a child with my family, and while I don't remember much from those visits I do remember having met Chip and Dale and have a photo of me as a kid with them. So for me meeting them was a form of reliving my childhood memories... (This is the same reason why when I went to Disneyland Paris with a friend, she absolutely insisted that we had to ride Dumbo even if it meant queuing for an hour - because she'd been as a kid and didn't remember much, but remembered being on Dumbo...)

Another who completely disagrees about the children only comment.

I do see your point, but just for a second imagine you didn't have that experience of meeting chip n dale as a child because the que was too busy. I think we all treasure our childhood memories of disney and I would forgo meeting Elsa and Anna if it meant the next generation of Dibbers got the chance to make some great childhood memories of their own.

If Disney got their act together EVERYBODY could get to see these characters in a reasonable amount of time.

Spot on
Everyone has the right, or should have the right, to do whatever rides they want on holiday. Obviously there's a health and safety issue re. heights on rides, that's important and different to the issue here. It would be a very sad world indeed if there were stipulations on you could only do certain rides/attractions if you have children. I don't have children but I don't have any interest in character meets (did it once, didn't enjoy it, just not my thing) but others enjoy it. Of course children are the world to their parents, but I wouldn't knock anyone for wanting to do something. |

No one is getting their 'knickers in a twist'. But no I don't have children but that shouldn't matter. Yes of course I know how much it means to children to meet their dream princess but it might also mean the same to adults.
Also it is a memory I will never forget. |

Personally if I've paid thousands to go on holiday to Disneyworld I'll use my FP+ to see what characters I like without feeling guilty and I'm 44.
Everyone has the opportunity to book but as with most things not everyone can be pleased all of the time. Edited at 10:23 PM. |

I'm a parent and I'm also an adult who travelled to wdw numerous times before I had my child. The whole point of Disney to me is it's for everyone... regardless.
Adults should be able to meet characters and create memories if they want to the same as we as parents should be able to take our children to eat in Disney signature restaurants (another point that seems contentious in some circles). I do agree perhaps the frozen sisters could have had two homes, one in Epcot and one in magic kingdom. |
