Hi Jessica!
Thanks for stopping by with a great question! As my friend Princess Tiana would say, you're
Almost There. . .almost to your Walt Disney World Resort vacation! Speaking of Princess Tiana, you can find her and some of her friends on
Tiana's Bayou Adventure which opens June 28, 2024. If you want to head down to the Bayou during your visit to Magic Kingdom Park, it's important to note that a standby line won't be initially available for the ride, but you can try to join a
Virtual Queue at 7:00 AM or 1:00 PM. In addition, you could
purchase Disney Genie+ for an opportunity to try and grab a Lightning Lane entry time.
Jessica, the
Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is a wonderful experience for little ones to live out their royal dreams as they are transformed into a prince or princess thanks to some Disney magic from their very own Fairy Godmother. It's one of the most popular reservations and often fills very quickly. However, if Disney princesses have taught me anything over the years it's to never give up on your dreams because they just might come true! I'd encourage you to keep checking regularly for appointment availability before your arrival and even once you are in the park. Plans sometimes change for other Guests and you might be able to grab a last-minute appointment.
If you're looking for other royal experiences, you may also want to check availability at these character dining locations:
There are also several opportunities to meet Disney princesses around Magic Kingdom Park including at Princess Fairytale Hall and Ariel's Grotto. One of my favorite options though is
Enchanted Tales with Belle. During this interactive attraction, you and your family get to become part of Belle's story and have the chance to meet Belle at the end of the adventure! Even better, each of these character meetings has a Lightning Lane entrance available if you have purchased Disney Genie+ on the day of your visit. If you purchase Genie+, remember that you can make your first selection beginning at 7:00 AM and then every two hours once the park opens or once your previous Lightning Lane entry has been redeemed. Lightning Lanes are subject to availability and popular attractions do fill quickly so I always prioritize our "must-do" rides and attractions with earlier selections and then fill in with others as the day goes on!
Jessica, I'm wishing upon a star that an appointment for the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique opens up during your visit to Walt Disney World Resort! Please remember you are always welcome to be our guest here at planDisney if you have any other vacation planning questions in the future!
See ya real soon!
