News Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Standby Line and Boarding Groups at Disney's Hollywood Studios

[RSoxNo1]

OK, cool. Good collaboration! Thanks!

Guy messaged me saying he hasn't been to Disneyland in a while, so with that in mind, have you backed into how many guests per boarding group in California? I can't imagine that there's that big a disparity in the efficiency coast to coast and I expect that the boarding groups are smaller in California.

7am slots filled in ~7 seconds.

Guy should be in the parks more regularly starting sometime next week.

Yeah, my rough estimate is that Disneyland's ROTR boarding group capacity is half that of WDW's.

Groups began being called at 8:45am (1-10). Groups started calling ~5 minutes later than yesterday.

Celebrating a 20th birthday at Hollywood Studios today (not mine) what’s the latest on strategy for the 1:00 pm slot.

1pm is easy lately. Just be ready right at 1

Just be ready right at 1pm. From what I have seen the longer it takes you the higher the BG you get. If you get too high of a BG then you may be out of luck if they stop taking BG's before you are called for the evening.

1pm window was open for roughly ~8 seconds - at 1pm, groups were called up to 55 (17 groups less than yesterday).

Thank y’all! Unless Rise euthanizes itself, we should get on!

7am slots filled in about ~8 seconds.

Man, it felt like they filled instantly on Monday. Was in the app, ready to go as the clock struck 7am and still struck out.

Luckily I got in on the 1pm session. Was my son's first ride and he was completely bought in to the experience. Kylo's saber through the ceiling didn't work, but otherwise everything was great.

When we arrive on day one I am driving right to DHS from the airport after we disembark from the plane around 9:30am, grab our luggage, go get into the rental car after bypassing the counter, and drive to the park as my son is checking us into the resort online from his phone in the backseat. If I get a BG that day then striking out at 7am on our other two DHS days will not be a big deal for me.

Rise took a poo

Did this start sometime between 4:15 and 4:30 pm?

Interrupted just after 3:55pm and notification to some groups just before 5pm.

Last group of the night 120.

We were 122

Edit: Seems to be stuck at 113, so might stop there for the night. I got the 120 number from the ride coordinator about an hour ago.

 

[DCBaker]

113 is the last group of the night, called around 7:10pm (55 groups less than yesterday).

 

[pdude81]

Ouch. That's an off night for sure
