Guests booked on upcoming Disney Cruise vacations once again have the opportunity to pre-reserved a spot for the Royal Gathering starting 30-days before the cruise. This meet & greet experience is actually a renaming of the ever popular Princess Gathering.
Please note, the 30-day pre-booking for the Royal Gathering will begin with sailings departing mid-July and beyond. Concierge guests will have the opportunity to pre-book approximately 35-40 days prior to sailing.
In order to book the Royal Gathering, the reservation must be paid in full and will not be open in conjunction with the Castaway Club levels.
Does this mean that meet & greet experience be back to normal or will still be physical distancing meet and greet.

Was this something that always had a fee attached to it or is the fee something new? Does anyone know what this entails?
Its always been a free activity but you have to prebook. They used to have 3 princesses and you would cycle through meeting all three.
I believe “reservation must be paid in full” refers to your DCL cruise being paid for in full, not a fee associated with the Royal Gathering.
