Yep, a cast member told me the SAME thing! The whole day is planned!!

Seriously, we were just there for 10 days and I did not even see the dream team ONCE!

Not even a glimpse!

We have talked to numerous dream team members as well as pin traded with them. We have never been given anything from these experiences. However on our last trip as we were walking into MK a dream team member talked to DD and asked if she wanted a personal meeting with Cinderella. Only 20 kids per day are picked for this. The only difference was she was dressed as Snow White. Did that make a difference? Maybe.
We also saw a family win the Cinderella Suite night package. They were in Sorin at 9:17 am and the daughter sat in a specific seat at the specific time to win the package. My DH talked to them and they said the Dream Team is assigned specific times and places to give stuff away so no one can claim profiling issues.

I like how they pick the winners to be honest, if they only picked the people who were trying to stand out it would be a little unfair.

TaraRae82 · 10-18-2007

We didn't see the Dream Team even once over our 8 day trip either! I saw a few people with the Dream Fast Pass around their neck but we didn't see anyone win anything when we were around. Maybe when I go in Feb I'll see something! :)

When I went with MissSMIG in April we didn't see the dream team, but when I went last October I saw the dream in both MK and MGM...

I actually spent a few minutes talking to one of the members of the Dream Team, she asked what was wrong and I told her that I was on my own without my family and getting a little depressed... She told me to cheer up that my day would get better, then off to One Man's Vision I went and won a Dream Fast Pass.

I think that as long as you are having a magical time. You may get picked. Don't go in with any expectations whatsoever. So if you do get picked then....it will be that much better. Pixie Dust to you and your dh.

my dh and i got a small one last september when w were there for our anniversary .. we talked to one women walked thru the park with her she was so nice.. as we were saying good bye she said she wasnt on dream team that day but if we had one ride we wanted to get on what would it be i said soarin.. when we go there i told her I cannot ride soarin it makes me sick..but i wanted my dh to go on he loves it but he wouldnt leave me to sit by myself. she took him on and rode it with him gave us a certificate it was a small thing but very special other wise dh would not have gone on..

I wish I knew the system the use to chose people. But it is so fun to watch someone get a dream I love watching their faces.

cowanfamily · 09-20-2008

I saw two members of the Dream Team at WDW...the first at Epcot...my kids wanted to trade pins, and I said okay, I said, oh, are you a member of the dream team, and he said,

"No, the Dream Team is the US Olympic Team. I am a member of the Dream Squad."

The end. how rude, I thought, have a magical day.

The other was the same thing, they were cool and not even nice to the kid trading pins...

That's too bad. We have met so many wonderful members from the Dream Team, my son traded pins each time he saw one. They have all been super friendly and gone out of their way to chat. In fact, one did a special trade with my son, another one left to find "Pixie Dust" and tracked us down after SpectroMagic to give it to my son,and several have given pins to my son (both Tink pins and random pins).

Sorry you met a couple who were having a bad day.

The only thing I noticed on our last trip was when we won our MK Fastpasses, it was handed out in the morning. And, the other two times I saw the Dream Team was in the morning. So, I'm thinking your odds are better being out in the parks in the a.m. When you think of it, as far as the dream Fastpasses, it makes sense they would hand them out in the morning, so you have the entire day to enjoy.

I agree. We got our DFPasses during EMH's at MK. We rode Space Mountain first, and as we rode into the exit area there was the Dream Team! It was so cute...they said "Welcome back space travelors! You have been chosen to be a part of Disney's Year of a Miliion Dreams!" I just about cried!

However, I did see them hand out DFPasses at HM later that day in the afternoon.....

unfortuantley this is one of those things which you need to have lady luck looking down on I am afraid. Just keep your fingers crossed but remember if you aren't lucky this time around, you will still be at the happiest place on earth with the one you love celebrating a fantastic anniversary! Enjoy and good luck x
