Star Wars Land 2019
With TSL now open and SWL only a year away, how are things shaping up at WDW (and WDL)? Is progress visibly noticeable? I didn't see a firm opening date, but is anyone booked for 2019 already in prep for the SWL land opening?

Looking at aerial pictures, still lots to be done... Not thinking about 2019 yet.. Well, a little I am I guess... Heading back down in October of this year... Want to spend my birthday there next year... Haven't done that... And birthday is in August... So who knows? Maybe I will go August and if I dare, when Galaxy's Edge opens...
Son of Jor-El.. Kneel before Zod...
TRICIA JONES: I heard that you were going to propose to Brandi Svenning at some theme park. When are men going to learn that women want ROMANCE, not Mr. Toad's Wild Ride...
BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

From Walt Disney Imagineering Narrows Opening Dates for Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge:
Late Fall 2019 at Walt Disney World Resort
Disneyland's looks further along, but is also opening potentially 5 -6 months earlier. Their spires can be seen from the Railroad and looked fairly complete in May.

DizneyFreak...welcome back! You've been lurking in the shadows? It's good to see you back on the boards. I think we'll wait a year until the hype passes. I'm betting it's going to be way bigger than TSL or WOA as far as crowds and demand.

Yea waiting 5 hours just to enter the land isn't really appealing to me lol...

I'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.

We opened up TSL and got into line at 5:10 AM, allowed in at 6 and rode both rides by 6:45 am, but while playing in the rest of the park later that morning, around 10 AM, if memory serves me correctly, the line was being extended to the "gate" where Star Wars land is due to be .... the CM's applying the masking tape to the ground told us from that point was approx a 7 hour wait ... and that was just to get to TSL .... it was CRAZY that morning, so my guess is when I get to open Star Wars, I'll have to be in line by midnight ...... I'm sure it (Star Wars) will far exceed the opening of TSL .... guessing of course ...

Wait...five and seven hour waits just to get into TSL now? We have fastpasses for the TSL attractions about 30 days out from today. Will we need to stand on line for hours just to get in to TSL hten just to wait to use our fastpasses?

I can't think of anything that I would stand in a 5 hour line for.

Hmm, that is an interesting question. What if you can't get in for your fastpass time?

What are the chances that they will have a pay-to-preview SWL when it opens next year like they did for Pixar Pier? I would be interested in taking my son to that.

My understanding is that it has changed significantly since opening day--still busy; just not the same extreme.
Recent Guest reports have indicated that during the park's nighttime entertainment or right before park close is a good time to visit the land with minimal wait times for attractions.

Hard to say with only one data point, but it seems likely given the growing trend in other 'after hours" type hard ticket events.

I'm sure a few days after opening the lines were a more manageable time ... that was an assessment of opening day only .... it was INSANE !!

Sorry, don't need to see something that bad where I am standing outside a theme park 5:00 AM.. nothing is that appealing to me and I don't have to be one of the first to see something... Not even Galaxy's Edge and I am a huge Star Wars fan... These things will be there next time I do... They aren't going away any time soon... Plus, line will be manageable by then.... I'm good...

Slightly off topic, what did you think of the Star Wars show at DHS? Is there a "perfect spot" I should get for a Star Wars fan?

... I agree with you, not much with Disney is that important, but it was our last day in Florida so it was stand in line super early, knowing we'd get in, or wait till our next trip ... you know the rest .. it turned out pretty good though, we were in and out before it got hot and had the rest of the day to relax by the pool ...
