8 Questions You Should Ask a Walt Disney World Cast Member

4.  Where to meet characters

If you’re looking to meet a specific character but aren’t sure of when or where they meet, you can always ask a Cast Member. Many characters either have permanent meet and greet locations or set meeting times each day in a predetermined location, making it easy to find them.

5. Best places for photos

Dying to get that perfect photograph? Every Cast Member, whether they’re PhotoPass or not, is able and willing to snap a photo for a guest, which means they also know some of the best places for photos, too! Ask them where they recommend taking pictures and I guarantee you’ll get some locations that are probably off the regular beaten paths you’re accustomed to.

6. Best places to eat

Unsure of where to grab a bite to eat? It’s safe to say many Cast Members play in the parks on their days off and have a ton of grub suggestions. Be sure to specify whether you want quick or full service that way they can point you in the right direction! Don’t be afraid to ask for resort or Disney Springs dining suggestions, either--it’s a great way to have a Disney experience without being in the crowded parks.
