I was wondering the same myself. My fear is that all this planning I’m doing now can so easily be turned upside down once the move to FPs for RotR. Not to mention what will happen with Mickey and Minnies Runaway Railroad opens. Definitely too many unknowns for my liking, but it is what it is I guess. Maybe some announcements will be made in the next month either way!
Yeah, I think so. Well at least when we go earlier April. Really curious how MMRR will be, probably the same with boarding groups? Won't know until March 4th I suppose. We're going to add in an extra day at HS, so two days. Typically we've only done one short day before. Looking at park hours currently 9-9, have to watch for changes. One early morning hours, watch those days and if going on one of those days, which I plan to avoid (well, I think so right now, may change my mind after I read some more details on how EMH is going at HS lately), then adjust and go with the early morning hours.
Based on the popularity of ROTR and that there does not seem to be a better way of handling the demand, I would expect BG's for the foreseeable future. The bigger question is what will DHS hours of operation be? Moving from 7am to 8am or 9am opening will put even more stress on the BG system as more people will be in the park.
My 6yr old son and I built a droid in November 2019. We thought is was really fun and cool and the Droid is a great keepsake and reminder of the trip.
That's what we've been afraid of. We really want to experience both new attractions, even if it requires a longer than usual line. If they do make you choose one or the other for a boarding group, we're thinking of adding a day to our tickets and spending the morning at HS before we fly out in the evening. We've never done that before. You can add a day while in the park on the last day of your ticket right?
DHS is a free-for-all these days and people who are used to planning are being forced to wing-it. Worst thing would be NOT getting a BG at park open and not having the Group A FP+ you want. That will make your day a bit miserable.
Yes, just talk to guest services in park.
Hmm, maybe will wait until we are on site to decide. What I did do in the meantime is cancel the first reservation which we had on the first HS day, and make it for our second HS day which is going to be two days after the first (will do AK or Epcot in between HS days). Then at least we'll be on site in Galaxy's Edge the first time ever and see this, and I can get a better idea. That'll be more than 24 hours out then to decide.
MDE doesn't care if dining reso's overlap with FP+.
cool, thanks.
I'm thinking something will fluctuate, maybe an 8 am open or a 9:30 pm close, or same and add some more EMH due to increased attendance in spring break weeks. Last year they changed hours about March I believe (I can't remember exactly the date it changed, end of Feb, beginning March, something like that, but they did in fact change hours on some parks after it was my 60+ FP booking window). Yep, have to currently go with what you know. We are also doing two days on our park hopper tickets in HS, we haven't done that before.
I am thinking they will open at at least 8, based on how they are handling it now. They are opening earlier, but not extending later. I highly doubt we see morning EMH, but they might add to evening EMH.
Whoo hoo! This is awesome!!!
