Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Lynne.
I recently had the opportunity to ride
Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and let me tell you, it was an experience unlike anything I’ve seen!
Currently, access to the attraction is through a virtual queue and Guests will need to join a Boarding Group through the My Disney Experience mobile app. In fact,
here’s a great article from the Disney Parks Blog that Thomas wrote about the virtual queue.
To ensure that you join a Boarding Group, I would personally advise you to arrive early prior to the opening of Disney’s Hollywood Studios (
check park hours). Lately Guests have been held in the Hollywood Boulevard or Sunset Boulevard areas (I've heard starting at around 6:20 AM) until scheduled park opening time. Then at 7:00 AM, you will be able to select the "Join Boarding Group" button on the home page of the My Disney Experience mobile app.
Once you’ve secured your reservation and your boarding group is called, you’ll then have up to two hours to return to the attraction!
If you have any other questions, please let us know. Have a magical day!
Bryan
