Hello Christine!
I had the opportunity to experience
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in
Epcot four times on my June Walt Disney World vacation. I can tell you that it was simply amazing! Two of the four times, I purchased the Individual Lightning Lane, and the other two times, I used the virtual queue.
You can purchase an
Individual Lightning Lane for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind through the
My Disney Experience App. This Individual Lightning Lane purchase is an extra cost per person, but it is well worth it based on my experience. Suppose you decide to purchase an Individual Lightning Lane for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. In that case, you can select a later time in the day for your Individual Lightning Lane return time. If you are staying at a Walt Disney World Resort, then you can purchase an Individual Lightning Lane at 7:00 am on that day. If you are not staying on-site, you can purchase Individual Lightning Lane for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind when Epcot is scheduled to open on that particular day. Remember you will need to make a
Theme Park Reservation for the first theme park you want to enter, which will be Epcot if you want to ride Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind.
I would also recommend that you try to get a spot in the virtual queue at 7:00 am for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind as well. There is also a 1:00 pm opening of the virtual queue, but you have to be inside Epcot to take advantage of this 1:00 pm virtual queue.
I hope that you have a magical Walt Disney World vacation!
