Are Anna and Elsa from the movie Frozen going to stick around Epcot after January 31

Are Anna and Elsa from the movie Frozen going to stick around Epcot after January 31?  This has become the most popular question on my blog, Facebook and Twitter feeds and emails.

Guests want Disney to confirm that the girls will be extended beyond the last date that was given.  Well, I have it on VERY GOOD authority that Anna and Elsa aren’t going to leave anytime soon.  Walt Disney World is looking into ways to expand the meet and greets capability that would allow the ladies to meet more of their adoring fans.  There’s no need to sweat whether or not they will stick around.  THEY AREN’T LEAVING Walt Disney World anytime soon.

Now, with that stated, you should understand just how popular this meet and greet has become.  It is the the “Frozen Foot Race” to see who can arrive in Norway at the Princess Plass first.  Lines can easily grow to between 3 and 5 hours each day.  People wait in the sun, they wait in the cold and they wait in the rain.  Guests want to meet these characters in the worst kind of way.  If you want to meet them, you need to either send a person to hold your spot at rope drop, wait in a really long line or perhaps attempt stopping by later in the day.

Dear Disney World,

Please look at allowing these characters to begin meeting at 9:15 am daily just like Merida does in the Magic Kingdom.  Rapunzel used to have this type of crazy line when meeting with Flynn and their meet and greet began later in the day.  You could easily accommodate more guests and allow the ones who arrive early to have a better overall experience at Epcot and even meet more of the characters they love.

Thanks,

KtP

Depends on the line that day. They could cut it off several hours earlier than 9pm, if there is enough demand

Okay, we plan on seeing Anna and Elsa on Saturday. The park opens at 9am and we have made 8:05 reservations at Akershus. If I pay early while we are still eating - can we head out aroud 8:45 and get in line before the rope drop people? We have eaten at Akershus five times so it wouldn't be the end of the world if we didn't get all the princesses before we left. Also, in this case would we be okay for 1pm FPP at Test Track. Saturday is a bonus day so we just want to see Anna and Elsa, grab a snack and bathroom break and head to test track for a 1pm-2pm time. THANKS!!!!!

I'm sure you could, but you are really rushing your meal to get through in 30 minutes or so. If you are among the first in line for Frozen, you will be done at 11:00. You can also send just one person to hold the spot in line for them.

Any idea about how many families do they meet per time slot? Just curious :-)

Average per family is about 1 to 2 minutes, but there's no more "time slots." They now meet pretty much continuously from 11-9 with like 5 minute Ice Cold Drink Breaks.

I sure hope they make it a FP+ option. I would hate to lose so much touring time :(
