I understand the simplicity and slow speed, but understand folks can’t safely drive their ECVs onto a stationery bus many times without bus driver assistance.
Hard to answer that question right now, we haven't started trials and testing next after that will be CM training. Also to be clear SWGE opening on 8/29/19 is not going to be a full blown reveal. It's a partial opening namely Millennium Falcon. I think a lot of people are expecting free reign and that's not going to happen. The rest of SWGE will still be under construction and out of site with the usual temporary walls.
Can't share that yet
In station speed is 1' p/ minute
Ummm
That’s simply not true. Dining and shops in Black Spire Outpost will open with Falcon. Of course RotR will be walled off.
Um..... ok I'll check it out at the soft opening....... see you there?!!!
Hopefully!
Unless something changes the entire land will be open August 29 with the exception of RoTR. There will not be active construction around the land.
Never the less, whatever is open is going to bring huge crowds to DHS.

That was certainly my take-away from all the announcements.Indeed, that's from the Disney Park Blog...
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge to Open May 31 at Disneyland Resort, August 29 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Minutes ago, we shared an exciting announcement many of you have been waiting to hear - Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is opening ahead of schedule on May 31 at Disneyland Resort in Southern California and August 29 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios indisneyparks.disney.go.com
And from the official Press Release page...
Walt Disney World Resort Reopening
Which says similarly...
On opening day for phase one, guests will be transported to the remote planet of Batuu, full of unique sights, sounds, smells and tastes. Guests can become part of the story as they sample galactic food and beverages, explore an intriguing collection of merchant shops and take the controls of the most famous ship in the galaxy aboard Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run.Phase two, opening later this year, will be Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, the most ambitious, immersive and advanced attraction ever imagined, which will place guests in the middle of a climactic battle between the First Order and the Resistance and will blur the lines between fantasy and reality.
There is no other way to read this that Phase 1 will be everything but RotR.
???? How long is a gondola going to be in the station? 1 foot, per minute?
I wouldn’t brag too much online about teaching at DU while sharing information from the OGs and other Welcome To Transportation/Ops curriculum (which as you know are marked as confidential material and all current and former Cast are officially prohibited from sharing said material). Disney’s compliance peeps definitely read these and other forums, and are pretty darn good at their jobs. Either way, thanks for the official info.
