I am super jealous. I am crossing everything that my 5 year old will be tall enough for the 40 inch rides (he's maybe 39.5 inches now barefoot). So thankful smugglers is only 38 inches.
If he’s that close to 40 inches put him in some tall tennis shoes and he will be fine! They measure them in shoes after all.
And do 40" rides at the beginning of the day so he's taller. As the day goes on, you can shrink, so if he's that close, then he may meet the limit in the morning, but not the afternoon! (My friends had that, same kid, tested and was barely ok in the morning, but still ok; in the afternoon, just barely under the limit, so she couldn't ride.)
No info in that video about 8am reservations though...
I don't get who would buy this. Isn't the whole point of buying one doing the whole experience? That's what you are paying a premium for. Aren't there plenty of lightsabers on the market if you want to just buy one?
From the sounds of this info, it seems that if all SWGE 8 am guests would be held at Main St , then there really isn't much of a fear of having your reservation time cut short because you are in a line of people waiting to check in. So, it is almost like the dessert parties, where you can check in and get your wristbands beforehand and then just show your credentials (wristband in this case; lanyard or wristband or other things for other similarly run events) at the SWGE entrance, where you can simply "move along". If check in starts at Launch Bay around 6 am for an 8 am reservation, there should be plenty of time without an actual necessity of being in the front of that line. Of course, it still wouldn't be a great idea to just stroll into DL at 7:45 for an 8 am time slot.
I am still wondering how long it will take to check every adult’s ID in every party? I feel like there are a lot of adults going in the early days (hard core fans of the original movies, who are all old like me!!), and they indicated that all adults will need ID. Heck, it is even cumbersome to check in for the Halloween party efficiently sometimes, and that is a less intense check-in as I recall (no ID’s checked but now I can’t be sure I am remembering that correctly). I also just don’t have a sense for the number of people that are going to be in each time group, as that would help everyone understand how the crowds might flow. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
