Then the Legends of the Force: Star Wars Celebrity Motorcade -- the Dis says 11:00 am and Touring Plans has it for 11:30???

FWIW, I already told TP they had it wrong a couple days ago. I assume they'll get around to correcting it at some point.

Dh has been called for Jury duty on May 5th! A week before our trip so we wrote to ask them to postpone his service - can't risk him getting a long trial. I told him point blank we'd still go to Disney without him if he was stuck doing it. He replied "I don't blame you"

IF He might be tempted to "run from the law" and skip out on jury duty then just remind him that there will be plenty of bounty hunters looking to bring him in for a pile of Galactic Credits Standard.

I seem to have a jury duty magnet implanted in my buttocks that is switched on for the times that I have a vacation planned. In all likelihood all you need to do is notify them of your plans and they will reschedule. Bringing along a Wookie or two seems to speed up the rescheduling process. If no Wookies are available try not shaving your legs for a week or two and then appearing in shorts to plead your case. Often times just the appearance of a hairy legged woman bellowing like a Wookie is enough to cause the powers that be to reconsider your family's fitness for jury duty.

It was 11:30 last year, so they've probably just not updated the schedule. But as others have mentioned, 11:00 is correct for 2015.

We will be going to SWW for the first time on June 5th. I got a fast pass for Visit to the Maul. Would "Behind the Force Rebels" or any of the other events be interesting for a 10 year old and 7 year old? I don't want to waste a fast pass on a show that my boys would not want to sit through. Thanks.

They are actually using more This year. By what I hear. And this are rumors until confirmed. They are using the old prop shop area, plus AFI...i agree, not sure why they can't put the tent behind RnRC again

Because all the shows are in the same area of the park. They have to spread the crowds around.

The Rebels show will be good if they watch the cartoon. This show is easier to get into maybe with a 30 minute wait on standby

I released the information Monday at 8am that they were opening up for booking Monday at 10am. Everyone called on Monday and got their packages. It could be that it's all sold out

Ugh ugh ugh! Wasted 30mins of my life on the phone with a CM who kept asking me the same questions lver and over. Grr why cant they mark it as sold out like normal people.

 

[delmar411]

you can call again. Many people had to call a couple of times until the CM actually found availability. Also when you call ask them to input the reservation time as 10am. Apparently that helped

He did put 10am and looked for every single day of SWW and had a 2nd person looking too.

I may call back and have them look for 1 person.
