Rise of the Resistance BOARDING GROUPS Superthread Part 1 *No Ride Spoilers Please* *PLEASE READ POSTS 1-4*

This is the problem. People generally understand that getting into the park early doesn’t matter for the boarding groups, but they worry they won’t get. Through security in time. That’s why people will continue to show up early.. for WDW and disneyland. I dunno what the answer is. When galexys edge opened do you remember how they opened ogas reservations at like 7am each day and you didn’t have to be in the park?

Line to get into Disneyland is basically zero now.

So arriving at 7:30 should be ok?? Idk if I want to chance it

Good luck, everybody. Curious to know how many people have already lined up at the Buzz Lightyear distribution point.

Plan ahead. Arriving 30 min prior is a reasonable planning rule of thumb and guidance goal. Disney appears to be exceeding that nicely.

If people show up 10min prior to opening drop, that's not really on Disney imho to get through the gates in time for drop

Sweet. Hopefully similar tomorrow since I have some late risers.

 

[Vysecity]

Good luck to you all! I'm here at work ready to practice getting a boarding group

I think It’s transportation driven to some extent. You basically have to be at the bus stop at your WDW resort by an hour+ before park open or you could get hosed by a long wait between buses, but the most likely outcome is that you’ll be at the park way earlier than necessary.

Same at DLP except the wild card is LA traffic for locals.

I guess I’ll see how today and tomorrow go but if we head over from toy story lot around 7 It sounds like we should get though ok to be through the main gates I’m hoping. I’m worried Monday could be busy.

I don’t remember reading anyone trying this today but:

• It works at Walt Disney World
• There is no way for Disney to reliably know if you are in the park or not

I would give the chance of this working at approximately 100%.

Actually, they could use location data to determine if you are in the park. They used to do that to prevent people from being able to see wait times until they entered the park and it was annoying, but very reliable on determining if you were in the park or not and which park you were in.

my app froze up twice before letting me through to choose people in my party then tried again and it was back up group. I think I will be ok...I hope

Back up groups being distributed by 8:01:04am

Edit: I do want to note that from 8:00:00am to 8:00:38 am my boarding group button was red. Then from 8:00:39 am to 8:01:03am the button grayed out but it still didn’t state that they were distributing back up boarding groups yet ( not sure if this was just a lag and boarding groups were actually gone at 8:00:38am). At exactly 8:01:04 the page refreshed and it stated they were distributing back up boarding groups and the button was red again.

Did anyone experience something similar to this?

 

[CaliforniaGirl09]

Backups within 1 minute again

Yep. I’m at home so was just playing along like yesterday. Today I also got in right away but unlike yesterday I kept getting an error message that I needed to link tickets. After a few tries backup message appeared but still got error.
