@Magic Feather has already confirmed that the EEMH are the WDW equivalent of the DL reservations.
And that there will be a virtual queue system.
The question is when the virtual queue system starts. Immediately on opening on 29th August? At 9am daily from the start date of the EEMH? From the start of EEMH each day? Or some other time.
And what happens to people just wanting to go to the rest of the park? A separate line for entry will be almost essential.
The sooner they announce the logistics, the better. Then people have something to plan around. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks, in time for FP booking for the rest of the park.
That is the issue, isn't it? There will be a set capacity to GE. Once that is hit, they will only be letting folks in when others leave. Without a time limit like in CA, I can imagine folks who will wait as long as it takes to hit the Big 3 (MFSR, Savi's, Oga's). So how are they going to handle:
A. The line of folks to enter the land. Once capacity is hit, are they going to force people to stand in line until they are let in? Or are they going to use a virtual queue (i.e., land fastpass) so folks can head off to visit the rest of the park? My guess is that if you aren't in line by 5:00 am, you could be waiting an incredibly long time to get in.
B. The line for MFSR. I know the wait times in CA have ranged from manageable to virtually non-existent, but depending on how many folks they allow into the land in FL, the wait times could be brutal. Especially since there will be plenty of folks who will rush to Savi's or Oga's, then plan to ride MFSR after doing those low-capacity "attractions." In fact, I just saw an article advocating that exact strategy on another site. So where are they going to put all of the folks in line for that ride?
C. The incredibly high demand for Savi's and Oga's. I would not be surprised if Savi's entire 16-hour "inventory" gets swallowed up by 7 or 8 AM, which creates a virtual fastpass for the shop. Similar for Oga's. And where are folks going to go while waiting for those experiences? There are only so many other shops and things to see - so are folks going to loiter playing the games on their phones/datapads? Or re-ride MFSR? Or leave the land entirely? Let's say at 7:00 AM, you get a 7:00 PM return time for Savi's. Will you be able to leave the land and get back in at your designated time? Or once you're out of the land, are you not allowed to return until the next day?
My concern has been that, which how incredibly efficient the CA opening has been, hordes of folks may descend upon FL that opening weekend, expecting similar, reasonable wait times. And while a reservation system similar to CA is not practical based on the 10X number of hotel rooms, if there isn't a way to limit the amount of time people are able to spend in the land, there are going to be an incredible number of people who arrive at what they think is a reasonable hour, who will never be able to set foot in the land, because of people like me, who will get there at an utterly inhuman hour and have enough patience to just hang out for an incredibly long time to experience as much as possible in a land we have been dreaming about for 40+ years.
I can measure something in meters, or in feet. It doesn't change the size of the thing I'm measuring.
