Does Star Tours become a tier 1 ride during SWW?

Does Star Tours become a tier 1 ride during SWW?

No, it remains as a Tier 2 attraction. First thing in the morning, there isn't a line.

We really want to see the parade but I doubt we'll be lining up more than 30 minutes prior. Is there a spot we can get a decent view at that time?

A couple of suggestions:
1.- Try the area where the parade first comes out by the old Sid's (Crossroads area) or any sunny side of Hollywood Blvd. I seriously wouldn't do a sunny area more than 30 min. keep in mind it's 30 mins. waiting and then the parade is about 15 minutes long. That's a long time in the sun
2.- If you just want to see the 501st and Rebel Legions anywhere on the street going from the stage to Star Tours
3.-This was posted by Kenny last year, not sure if it'll work this year since there is no hat but we watched the 501st go by sitting on the steps of Superstar Television Theater (Old AIE) and as soon as they were done we went behind the Hat and waited by the entrance to GMR and saw almost all the characters walking from the stage to go backstage. Again not sure if this will be the case this year. Also there are rumors that the parade might do what the Frozen one did last year and that was to stop at the stage, do the welcome show and then keep going down towards ST.

I thought I would have to cancel my 10:40 reservation to pick up the 10:20, but it's still showing in my reservations . So I'm going to cancel it today. If anyone would like to co-ordinate send me a quick message It might still be a glitch so please don't be mad at me if it doesn't work

It's for Galactic Breakfast May 15th, for 2 people.

thanks for the info. I'm thinking they might open closer to weekend one like they did last year. Did you happen to notice what was the latest time available for fps for TSMM and GMR?

I'm sure it has probably been answered somewhere amidst the 166 pages of this thread, but with the actor autograph sessions, what do/will the actors sign? can people bring memorabilia with them to the park? merchandise bought in the park? autograph books? or are there official 8 x 10 head-shots of the actors available on the day?

all of the above. If you don't have anything the actors have black and white pictures at their desk that they will sign. Also it doesn't have to be SW, I have taken my Harry Potter movies for Warwick Davis to sign, Dee Bradley Baker has signed Perry the Platypus merchandise, etc. All of them will personalize the item if you ask. The only actor who doesn't personalize is Peter Mayhew

My FP+ window opened up this morning and I noticed that Beauty and the Beast is available Mon-Thurs but says Standby Only Fri-Sun. Is this because the Star Wars shows will be using that stage?

That's interesting...I guess since there will only be 3 shows of B&B they just want to leave it open...the other thing is that since the SW shows will most likely be available for fp+ the touch point will be programmed for SW and not B&B

In addition to what @yulady said, just keep in mind you may be standing out in the rain waiting to have things signed. Be sure you have a way to keep it safe. I had 8X10's in freezer bags and they stayed safe.

Is there going to be FP+ for the parade and the fireworks?

Are the fireworks (unlike the breakfasts) only showing over the weekends?
