Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge Opening Day *August 29* Planning Thread

It's going to be so hot. I can't imagine waiting out in that heat for hours.

another plus of being a SWW veteran super, super hot. I'm hoping Smugglers Run indoor queue holds at least 3 hours worth of people

According to those that saw the land already the queues are reportedly large and comparable to FoP. Both will have pre-show aspects and Play Disney Parks interactivity.

I just want them inside as much as possible, hopefully they also planned ahead and it will have a restroom

That was confirmed already. No restrooms in the queues. To me that makes sense to keep with theming. They did say there are water refill stations like Pandora though.

I'm all about show, and clearly there could be restrooms inside a hangar, putting water doesn't help

I get it but a restroom messes up the flow of the queue.

not more than people coming in and out of the entire queue, going outside to the restrooms like it happens in Pandora

That's Disney's fault for allowing that.

Disney website says RotR will open “later this year“ so Feb-Mar 2020 is unlikely.

Awesome, so maybe it will be open for my December trip!

 

[Spaceguy55]

Hopefully ROTR will open about 3 months after the one in DL opens..that might be the best indicator...maybe sooner if they have problems with that one and can overcome them quicker here.

I was hoping to miss the Star Wars crowds - and we'll be there from 8/19 to 8/24. Do you think we're good, or it's going to be more crowded then too? Thanks

it's a crowded time of year anyways but you will be missing the opening so it should be fine, just have a good plan

But come on! If you make cues to hold 3 hours of wait time, you need facilities. Edit: or you allow people to leave and come back

Disney at least used to tell guests before getting into the FoP line there are no bathrooms in the line so plan accordingly.

I get the plan accordingly thing but for 3 hours? And put water station in? Sorry but a big FAIL on Disney who supposidly thinks on every guest need to make a great experience. And adding toilets will not hold a line up. At many spots line stall. Place them stratigically there and it’s a non- issue.

I will agree to disagree on this one.

If you had my bladder you would change your mind.

I do get the issue I am just looking at it from a logistical side.
