Mickey’s on the phone
One of the perks of visiting Disneyland in the past was to have meals with the characters. But now travel agents can arrange for clients to get a phone call from Mickey.
After booking a Disneyland vacation online, agents will receive an e-mail directing them to schedule a telephonic greeting from Mickey, Minnie, Goofy or a combination of the three.
The call can come immediately or at a scheduled date and time.
Once ordered, the client receives a phone call from a host, asking them to gather family and friends and to press “one” when they are ready to hear the special message. Each call welcomes the family to their upcoming Disneyland vacation, with a “fun” message from Mickey Mouse, Goofy or Minnie Mouse. The service is free.
