Welcome to Ask The Duchess – Vol. 99, a monthly Q&A post covering a variety of resort-related topics. Ask The Duchess answers questions submitted by readers. If you have a question you’d like answered, send me a message here.
1. Am I allowed to touch characters during a meet and greet? (submitted by Bettany)
You are absolutely welcome to give them a hug. The rule of thumb (like with anyone you meet) is to just be respectful!
2. How do I know if a restaurant takes reservations? (submitted by Kelly)
You can check on Disneyland’s website or on the app! Most table service (waiters taking your order vs. ordering at a counter) offer reservations.
3. How old does my son have to be to use the single rider line? (submitted by Abeni)
Your son must be 7 years old and meet any height requirements for that ride.
4. Does Disneyland offer package delivery to my house if I buy something? (submitted by Leesa)
Yes, for most goods. Just double check with a cast member before starting your checkout and they should able to confirm if there are any items in your purchase that would pose a problem for shipping.
5. Does it rain a lot at Disneyland? (submitted by Ria)
Generally, no. Rain is most likely to occur November – February, but it’s rarely a washout day. The rest of the year, rain is much less likely.
