if you are a AP holder do you need a park reservation for the preview? any idea on how many and what days it will be, what were the limits in previous previews, are you restricted to tron only?

No the park pass is assigned along with the preview and does not count against your 5 allocations.

No details on dates or duration at this point.

The preview test you into MK for that day to ride anything, with a return time for TRON.

You're making a lot of guesses and assumptions based on no information.

The people correcting you have access to people within Disney (or one of their vendors) who know what is really happening -- without guessing, without making assumptions.

Please stop trying to correct people who have real information and accept that you don't know what they know and thus, your guesses and assumptions are incorrect.

How can I be incorrect if it isn't for 5 weeks from now? Come back to me then and if I was wrong, I will admit it

And I was told I was incorrect when I said i think Tron work will be completed by Feb 15th. I think even Martin agreed with that when he said it will be in operation then, just not to the public. So are we both wrong?

I wonder how much busier April will be now that this announcement was made........

I know that ROTR was it's own beast but I can't remember if park passes sold out for Epcot?

Do you know what sort of safety checks have to be worked through before it is certified to be open to the public? How many days of continuous daily operation have to be cycled through to be deemed worthy to be open? How many current glitches are being worked on? How far along Cast Member training is in place to so that there are enough to handle twelve thousand riders every day over several shifts all week long? The arrival time of various ordered equipment for handrails and signs and lockers given the widespread continuing supply chain issues?

Just because they can send people out now for a ride, doesn't mean it's ready for the continuous heavy use by the public to ensure it won't be breaking down every half hour.

I have a trip planned for april, and I was thinking "what if tron opens in April and all the park reservations dont let me in Magic Kingdom" so YESTERDAY got 2 days at the MK reserved just in case. Its a few weeks after the opening, but pretty happy that I am safe. And hopefully other rides and other parks will be easier to ride.

SUPER GLAD ILL MISS THE FIRST WEEK OF MEDIA AND SOCIAL MEDIA MEGASTARS

This idea that they can accelerate this late in the game is silly. A year ago they could have sped this up a bit. It’s opening in April because they scheduled it to.

Yep, it was determined a while ago that Cosmic Rewind was the main event for 2022 and into the holidays, and TRON is going to power 2023. Construction schedule was then optimized to that.

Yes Park Pass did become constrained around the opening.

Disney Park Pass availability suggests possible dates for 'Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind' Annual Passholder previews

Annual Passholder previews of EPCOT's new rollercoaster are coming, Disney is still to announce dates.
