• Post-tour access to the Jedi Training Academy for your Padawans

Plus, after your guided experience comes to a close, you’ll have time to enjoy the park on your own before ending your day the Ultimate way with VIP viewing of the Summon the Force finale show and the Symphony in the Stars fireworks spectacular!

if you in pm me so I can set it up

 

[gretchnh]

your fp look good.
You can line up to meet Warwick Davis and get his autograph fp because they are distributed outside before the park opens, then you can head to Chewie
Ewok Tale is a popular show, as popular as SotS. Line up at least an hour before
Yes you should try and grab a spot for parade early on, around 9:30am
The Mall could be done in the evening
Second F! is best

Awesome! Thank you so much! And thank you for continually updating everything! So much info!!!

Visit to the Maul only happens when Ray Park is here. First post is completely updated with show times

Ok, wasn't sure why it showed up on may 17 but none of my other dates. weird. This is all very overwhelming

Fortunately the FP window hasn't opened for my weekend yet.

Gotta say though that Weekend IV is looking kinda light on guests compared to the other weekends (I wonder if that was where they slotted Freddie Prinze Jr?)

Is there a backstory on Freddie Prinze Jr not being there? He was there last year, right?
DS would love to hear Kanan ... What's the likelihood of any additions or changes?

[lovethattink]

I go to Animal Kingdom today and come home to 10 pages of new posts! Exciting day!

 

[coluk003]

so this, so im clear for my weekend are the people singing autographs correct?

Weekend III (May 29 – 31)

• Warwick Davis: Wald, Wicket W. Warrick (Star Wars: The Phantom Menace; Star Wars: Return of the Jedi)
• Daniel Logan: Boba Fett (Star Wars: Attack of the Clones)
• Steve Blum: Zeb Orrelios (Star Wars Rebels)

 

[inkedupmomma]

that is the VIP

is it the tour that was posted a few weeks ago, or another one? Just wondering why it is being posted again if the same?

I'm writting to Disney, something has to be done for us that have been loyal AP for a long time

I strongly agree with you, but it still won't help me this time. My parents have APs but I don't this year.

On that note - how early would you line up on Weekend 1 for SotS and Obi-Wan and Beyond for:
(a) Good seats or
(b) Any seat?

Thanks.

Ok guys and gals, I am on the boat of what the heck here.... WHY? Look at the lack of people signing autographs...

No James Arnold Taylor (are you kidding me)
No Ian McDiarmind (pouty but get it)
and No Frank OZ (I would be super pouty if I was there that weekend but I get it)

Add to this it only looks like Ashley Eckstein is signing at her clothing line, the GG and the 4th weekend!

That means each weekend they only have 2 to 3 guests signing autographs, something is fishy here.......

 

[yulilin3]

is this different than the vip tour that was posted a few weeks ago?

the only thing not mentioned here is the dessert party. But Shawn Slater from DPB already said that there were more announcements to come, including one about Premium Packages

if you in pm me so I can set it up

seriously, not necessary

Awesome! Thank you so much! And thank you for continually updating everything! So much info!!!

you're welcome
That's why I put everything on the first page so it doesn't seem so overwhelming

Is there a backstory on Freddie Prinze Jr not being there? He was there last year, right?
DS would love to hear Kanan ... What's the likelihood of any additions or changes?

He did not come last year. He was the only Rebels cast member that didn't

for the work she does ill do half with someone if they want!!!!!!!!!!!.....any takers????????????

I'm happy to help

 

[inkedupmomma]

ahhhh, now I'm even more confused. Is premium package what feel the force is? deep breaths lol

 

[AThrillingChase]

I cant even see the shows for any weekend for even 1 person. WTH????

That is seriously crap that they opened it up 60days out and that they allowed all to be booked.

I have a party of 3 with one person with about a 90% likely cancellation rate. When I get her official "I can't go anymore" I will have 1 to release for SOTS 5/15 and Obi Wan 5/17. Or at least try my best to cancel for just one person. I'd be happy to try and time it out so someone else on here can get it.

When I go to update m y FP nothing is showing up in SWW option.. what am I doing wrong?

It's those tricky TOT and ST FP! Obi Wan wasn't showing up for me at first for that reason too, but I'm glad I got it. I don't think we'd be as much into BTF.

 

[yulilin3]

I strongly agree with you, but it still won't help me this time. My parents have APs but I don't this year.

On that note - how early would you line up on Weekend 1 for SotS and Obi-Wan and Beyond for:
(a) Good seats or
(b) Any seat?

Thanks.

For SotS I would line up an hour before to be safe. Obi Wan with just 30 min you should be fine. All the seats have a good view but you don't want to be stuck on the bleachers.

Ok guys and gals, I am on the boat of what the heck here.... WHY? Look at the lack of people signing autographs...

No James Arnold Taylor (are you kidding me)
No Ian McDiarmind (pouty but get it)

Add to this it only looks like Ashley Eckstein is signing at her clothing line, the GG and the 4th weekend!

That means each weekend they only have 2 to 3 guests signing autographs, something is fishy here.......

Maybe it has something to do with the amount of space inside the old AIE audition rooms?? Gustavo (my DS18) auditioned a couple of times and I think they only have 4 or 5 rooms in there. So maybe it's a matter of space
JAT not signing makes sense because above everything he always does he is taking over the Behind the Force show (Ashley used to do that one) so it might just be a matter of time for him
Again, like last year, they couldn't handle the people camping out for days outside of DHS. SO that makes sense to me for Ian and Oz not to be signing

 

[yulilin3]

ahhhh, now I'm even more confused. Is premium package what feel the force is? deep breaths lol

It sounds that whatever package they are coming up with, will be similar but no one knows for sure

 

[AThrillingChase]

ahhhh, now I'm even more confused. Is premium package what feel the force is? deep breaths lol

Yes. deep breathes! I asked Shawn on the blog if there would be FP for the parade, and/or if the premium package he mentioned would have reserved viewing. Currently stalking the page for his response...
