the Princess Pavilion is a free queued meet n greet in Fantasyland in the main park. I believe they are using a timed ticket system, so you need to look at the park programme when you arrive, and pay attention to the times when the cast members will be in Fantasyland handing out tickets for the Princess Pavilion. You may need to queue to get a ticket, but it vastly cuts down the time you'd need to queue in the Pavilion itself. You will only meet one Princess per timed ticket, and you won't know which one until you reach the front of the queue in the Pavilion.

We found this system quite a burden to be honest. Firstly you had to go to the ticket queue place to find out what time they were giving out tickets that day. Then you had to come back in advance of one of those times and queue for the tickets and then you had to come back at your allotted time to queue again to meet the princess! My 4 year old daughter absolutely loved meeting Snow White but we only did it the once as it all took so much time out of your day. It meant that twice in the day you couldn't get in a queue for a ride in case you weren't finished in time to go over to where you needed to be.

This was all in a quiet period too - in May when all the schools were in.

Not sure if anyone will know the answer to this but...

We booked our Eurostar (Ashford -> DLP) online for May 2013 in August 2012.

We want to book the same for April 2014 (before our annual passes run out!) so were expecting to be able to book in July 2013.

However, currently the Eurostar website shows bookings only up until mid January. I emailed them and they said our dates would be available in mid September.

Just wondered if anyone knows what's going on really! We don't want to miss out on the £69 returns if at all possible. Are they available for all dates?

Thanks.

I think you can run the site through google translate?
12th-19th will be no problem then, theres one blackout date on 15th, but thats the only date in your trip that would be affected, so the Fantasy passes from cemultiavantages would suit you fine -

yes, theres no problem buying from cemultiavantages while resident in the UK. They send out the temporary passes in the post to you (I think its around 6 euros for the postage).

Balletshoes - I'm about to order my passes, I take it you need to register first? The question about "you are a", do I put, Professional, Association or Particular? They all ask for company name, logo, website etc? Please help, I'm struggling to understand this even with the translater.

its particular - and dont complete anything about a company website etc, you will be able to skip those boxes. You do need to register first, and pay your registration fee, before you can buy your passes.

Looking to book the Cheyenne hotel for September 2014, is there usually any offers on during Christmas or is now a good time as ever to book?

Is it right you cant take food into the park?

i believe you should now get a password by email (unless you've already been prompted and input a password?). Once you have the password, you can go ahead and order and pay for your annual passes.

for September next year there should be loads of offers out before then, so unless you're getting the equivalent of about 40% off right now, I'd wait to book.

you can take food into the parks no problem at all, just no butter knives, glass bottles for drinks etc.

Phone them up directly. People on here have said that there are tickets available for future dates released via the phone well before them becoming available online.

Thanks again you are full of knowledge and have been a great help:j. I have ordered the passes, how long do they normally take to arrive and do I have to do anything with them at Disney?
