Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge (Disney's Hollywood Studios)

Anyway, I stepped out of SWGE bc I have a boarding pass to come back and I figured the rest of the park would be dead. I was certainly wrong. TSL still very busy and even ToT and RNRC putting up decent wait times.

This is what I was concerned about without having enough to do since you have to be in DHS to get a boarding pass. This is why they needed MMRR to eat up guests.

Part of it is because the opening day Star Wars merch is down Sunset in the Once Upon a Time store.

The app is showing 150 minute wait at the moment, but the rest of DHS seems like a slow-normal day. I think the analogy of Black Friday was correct. Huge crowd at opening, then a normal day for the rest of the day.

Yeah, Fastpasses are still available for everything except Slinky Dog. On a busy day they're usually all gone by now.

By showroom do you mean the actual ride experience? A pod that holds 6 people is the ride. it is on a turntable with other pods. See the diagram here:

Yeah, I guess I should call it a ride vehicle and not a showroom. My bad choice of word.

Original projections were 55k guests today which would be what they’d pull on average if TEA numbers are right. Revised estimates are 27k which is above the actual average, and it looks like what they’ll actually hit. Prior to this the park would usually pull in around 20k give or take.

Lines are holding up more at DHS than DL so far.

Honestly seeing stuff like this makes me truly appreciate Disneyland’s approach. Even if it made twitter label it a failure.

So just had lunch at Ronto Roasters and of course got the Ronto Wrap. I have to say I am wayyyyyy beyond impressed. I didn’t know anything about except it was a hyped item. That was some of the best theme park quick service I’ve had by far.

On another note, the lack of seating around the land is a big problem. I had to eat sitting on the ground under an umbrella (thankfully next to a fan though). The lack of shade certainly isn’t as pertinent of an issue as it is in TSL, but it’s still an issue that I hope is addressed by more than just umbrellas.

EDIT: Hey @Alicia! Saying that now bc I didn’t say it when I saw you roaming the land. Your Theme Park Stop shirt caught my eye. You were recording though so I didn’t want to interrupt.

I won’t be visiting this park until Rise of Resistance and Mickey opens.

Despite only having 9 rides, this park is gonna have one hell of a ride lineup. It’s gonna be a really fun park.

Even through the latest dark years, and all the hate, DHS remained arguably my favorite Disney Park (other than MK). I really do like their ride and show lineup. Now with Toy Story, Galaxy's Edge, and Mickie and Minnie I'm beyond ecstatic to revisit!! Easily going to be my favorite Disney Park overall now

I'll be very curious to see how this park handles stock issues compared to Disneyland.

Wait times have already dropped significantly from this morning ToT at 20, RnRC at 45, TSMM at 35. Slinky (65) is the second longest behind SR (150)

 

[Cup_Of_Coffee]

Thats really damn impressive if on opening day where it does look relatively packed that the waittime hasn't ever gotten above 3 1/2 hours I believe. Does seem to be a people eater for sure.

Things are looking steadily busy and smooth today.

I’m literally in line for my seventh ride (in the holding area) and the ride hasn’t broken down on me once. It’s been incredibly reliable and the longest I’ve waited (from getting in the actual line) is 45 minutes.

 

[Alicia]

Just left. I like it.

Yes, we've always liked DHS a lot. As you said, with GESWL, TSL and Mickey/Minnie next year, it's going to be a really good park. And we like all the shows, even though they've been around for a long time. Hoping that GESWL provides the capacity increase to keep the other lines down, like Touring Plans predicted. Looks like that's the scenario, at least at this point and time. :thumbsup:

 

[Evan]

Falcon is definitely one of those most reliable, new rides built.


ALSO

Okay why does their Oga's get more food options?

right, it really seems like it’s going to be a fantastic park to visit this year. I can’t wait to see how capacity for Rise is. If it’s really strong like Smugglers run is then that’s awesome. Really well spread out park. The attraction lineup is so diverse now it’s awesome!
