Rise of the Resistance BOARDING GROUPS Superthread Part 1 *No Ride Spoilers Please* *PLEASE READ POSTS 1-4*

[Going2DisneyAZ]

Looking forward to seeing them scramble to meet the "guaranteed" quota. It's going to be close given they close at 8:00. They really have no margin for error, so they're probably praying it does not go down.

but what does guaranteed really mean?

In WDW - recovery is ticket and fastpass for the following day. They haven't needed it to date here.

An interesting twist would be to extend the folk INTO Valentine event for those up to 81. That would be the route I take if I had a choice.

Exactly. The app even says a boarding group does not guarantee entry

I mean, I think they could call groups right up to 8:00 if they so choose... it’ll be interesting to see how it goes today.

I did find it curious that the first “After Dark” night had them lowball the regular groups SO much, and then this week they just kept them normal? Seems like something like 60ish “guaranteed” groups might be a good number for these days?

I’m sorry to all whose day got scrambled by the unexpectedly late opening!

Presumably they will offer something if they don’t get through guaranteed groups the way WDW does, though. Otherwise they wouldn’t bother to distinguish between them and back-up groups.

It is also possible that they will let folks with boarding groups 82 and under stay in the park past 8. They could call all remaining groups at 8, fill the queue, and then direct them to leave the park after they ride. Don't the event ticket people have wristbands or something?

I think that the verbiage is just regular and backup. I don't think the app or anything says guaranteed. I think that's just what we call them, but yeah they're not.

Yeah, that's basically what I meant. They can't keep uncalled groups in the park after 8 because you can't do anything without the event "credentials" (it was a lanyard last night), but they could call whatever they wanted until 8, even if it takes awhile to clear the line. If they're close enough to 82 at that point, I wouldn't be surprised if that's what they did.

I have been following since day 1 and I know this has been covered, but I didn't think it would apply to me, but things have changed. How can I delete linked annual passes from the app? For the life of me I can't figure it out. Wife and kid are going to sleep in at the hotel and I am going solo. They are ok not riding RoTR this trip.

Also, I know there was a post/article that had all the tips etc. in one place, anyone have the link to that?

Thank you in advance!

No need to see guest services, just tap the 3 lines on the bottom right of the app, select “Tickets and passes” and add or delete tickets as you wish. Link from the Disney Moms Panel below.

Yeah, we're on the same page. I just didn't read what was written quite right.

Just like any hard ticket events though, if you're IN line, they won't kick you out -- eg: Guardians on oogie nights. If you get in line by 8pm, they won't kick you off.

So call x-82 before 8P and all get in line -- will run ride until finished. That's what I would do.

This doesn’t work all the time. I’ve had to call to have tickets unlinked every time.

 

[thedarksyde]

36 was just called and the line is pretty long inside. Longer than yesterday. The queue is almost to where they are scanning boarding passes.

They're trying to pack 'em in to have a chance at getting through the "guaranteed."

I did have to call. I did not get the option to unlink/delete them. The CM told me it happens sometimes, but she did not know why. Fixed it in seconds.

 

[montreid]

If you "own" the tickets, you can't delete them on the app. You have to call - weird, but true.

So ironically, it's easier to make a completely separate ROTR login with dummy email and link your varying tickets to it for ROTR if you have long term varying party members joining the cause

 

[FakeLocke]

Aaaand it's down. In line now.

 

[CmdrThor]

Was just past the first portion of the ride about 10 minutes ago and the ride went down. Was issued a multiple experiences FP for any ride including ROTR.

That probably means 1 hour reset mode down

If you're physically on the ride you get a FP. You have to evacuate the ride. It doesn't matter how long the down time will be. If you're in line, you may just have to wait it out.
