**Official** Star Wars at DHS, Galactic Spectacular Dessert Party/Galactic Nights/Launch Bay/JT

[yulilin3]

I've forgotten. What's happening on the 18th?

nothing has been officially said but with the hours of operation for those attractions it suggests fireworks and with it being the release date for the movie I would think it's SW related

This is wishful thinking (for you guys, since it's moot for us), but I wonder if they'll replace the Frozen Crap (sorry) of the Summer with SWW ALL SUMMER LONG. Turn Season of the Force into SUMMER OF THE FORCE.

That would be awesome.

Not for us, if the Season of the Force becomes Summer of the Force. We are going to WDW in March and are really excited for SoTF. We're already starting to get worried that it's not going to happen from January - March as was originally listed on the passholder's site, since the dates disappeared and no new info has been released for WDW's SoTF.

I believe a call and an email so far have said "Winter" for SotF...

Wow. Just wow. Frontier has a nonstop flight between St. Louis and Orlando for substantially cheaper than SW. They don't have flights in May loaded in yet, but if those fares are the same, I could save quite a bit and have assigned seating. What kind of reputation does Frontier have as far as service, flight times, lost baggage and such? That's worth something, too.

Frontier charges $30 (higher depending on when you pay for it) for a CARRY ON bag, $25 for the 1st checked bag and $30 for the 2nd checked bag. That's $85 for what Southwest charges $0.00.

According to this report from May, Frontier rated dead last (14th) for on time performance with 65%....Southwest was 5th with 80%.

Has anyone looked at the recent WDW crowd calendar analysis on Touring Plans blog? They are saying that crowds are much heavier than anticipated at DHS. I guess it's not really becoming that unpopular yet, even though a lot of the stuff that's going to close seems to have done so already. There's obviously more closures and walls for the park, but maybe this bodes well during the construction. I would hate for it to become a ghost town.

Well, when you close-off half the park then as little as 1,000 people are going to make it crowded, lol. And all those people are there for one last looksie before something else is closed!

I hope it is not Summer of the Force (or worse SWW during the summer months) if only for the selfish reason that our seasonal passes have blackout dates and I would hate to miss out!

Fashion Alert! Her Universe merchandise and more at Watto's Grotto! !

Bwahaha! Those lightsaber boots are so funny! They have some cute stuff though. I wonder if any of it came out in the Disney Store, too...

Build a saber has a Kylo Ren.

@lovethattink to quote another Sci Fi series "Danger, danger Will Robinson" thanks for the merhcandise pics

 

[AThrillingChase]

oh man. @lovethattink is that an R2 dress I spy? Did I mention I am going down on Thursday for wine and dine half weekend? And will be in proximity to crash my credit card limits? lol. I can't decide if that one will cost something reasonable (ish) or something like $80.

And those shoes...wowza. I am a very experienced heel wearer. I wear them every day. But I am not even brave enough to try those.

The back of the R2 dress is lower than the front. I wasn't aware of this until I got home and tried it on.

I don't think that people realize that Watto's Grotto IS Darth's Mall. That place is empty. There is a much better selection of merchandise now, yet the place is empty. No lines to get in. No lines to check out.

Location, location, location. That place is practically invisible.

Location, location, location. That place is practically invisible.

But there are signs everywhere and a shout out in the times guide.

I'm sure the tide will change during Season of the Force once guests are there for Star Wars specifically.

yeah, plus there's nothing to draw the crowds over, unless you are going to LMA or to meet the Monsters Inc characters
