Darth Vader and Chebacca Wait Times

[Abbey1]

Hi! We'll be at Disneyland February 29th-March 3rd. I am wondering what the wait times are generally for meeting these two characters. Is it best to head straight here at park opening if we want a short wait time? Also, are there any other Star Wars characters available to meet routinely? Thanks for any info!

We were there this past week. On Thursday, 1/7 we met chewbacca in 20 minutes and darth Vader in 15. This was in the afternoon around 3ish. There were times of shorter and longer waits but if you plan it right you can meet them without too bad of wait times.

It doesn't open until 10am. On Thursday we got in line about 9:45 and met Darth in about ten minutes. By then Chewy was up to 30mins so we skipped him. We had gone in the afternoon on Wednesday and waits were 45mins to an hour but it was pouring rain and I think everyone was looking for something dry to do, lol. Had I had my son with me we would've gone ahead to the Chewy line, while is said 30mins it didn't look like 30mins to me.

I'm glad to hear the wait times aren't as bad as I was expecting!

Also if you have a Disney VISA Card, you can meet Darth Vader with basically no line at al

When the wife and I went for Christmas, Vader was about a 20 minute wait. We missed out on Chewbacca due to other plans though, but his line seemed to be about the same as vaders

The last time I went, which was about a month ago, Darth Vader was an hour and Chewie was about 20 minutes so I think it just depends on the day

We were there on Jan 1. Darth Vader was about 25 mins. Chewbacca was about 20 mins. The line for the Visa Meet & Greet seemed to be about 10-15 mins.

If you go within 30 min before closing, the wait time for visa is nothing and chewie was about 10 with darth vader being 20 min

Disney visa CREDIT card.

Huge obnoxious distinction between that and the Debit card that we have.
