Hey guys! I'm planning to go to Hollywood Studios on March 4th for the opening day of Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway. I'm sure it will be packed. Anyone have any advice, tips, or tricks? I have a couple of questions:
  1. What time will the park open? MyDisneyExperience says 9:00 AM, but for a major new attraction that doesn't sound correct.
  2. Upon arrival, will they have a "boarding group" system?
  3. Will FastPass be open on opening day? If so, when will they be released?
  4. I'm staying at Coronado Springs in Gran Destino. It would be easiest to go by car to the park, correct?
  5. Is there any chance of riding both Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway and Rise of the Resistance in the same day?
Sorry I have so many questions, but thanks for your help!

Those are great questions.

But don't expect any official answers.

If Disney answers any of them, they'll give up whatever flexibility they think they have and might need to deal with contingencies.

Nobody has a clue yet. The info you seek depends on how Disney decides to handle the expected influx of people and they arent saying yet. As far as riding both... possibly. Theres speculation regarding FP+ but no one can predict for sure. If the crowds are still massive which you can probably count on, by doing boarding groups youd have to plan on real early entry to snag a spot on RotR and who knows what M&M would require. A car or uber would get you there more efficiently.
