This morning, the reservation process to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opened. Guests everywhere patiently waited at their computer (or in some cases, multiple devices) for their chance at getting to see Batuu. After lots of waiting, we got our chance to reserve our slot but we wanted to walk through the process that we went through!
At 10 a.m., guests were invited to load the reservations page. Someone on Twitter pointed out that it was not a chronological queue for the reservations. It was a randomized loading process, meaning that even if you had loaded up the page right on time, luck may not be in your favor. We were lucky to only wait 30 minutes after the reservation process opened to the public. By this time, dates for the opening weekend for taken but there were plenty of dates and times open until June 23.
It seems that one of the biggest issues for guests was the note about adding friends to the reservation. This was a step that came before picking the date and times to the reservation. Though we were able to add friends on to ours, it seems as though we had many friends that were not able to. This has caused a great deal of confusion in the Disney community as guests are now concerned that their reservations will not be useful. Please note that once you confirm your reservation, you are not able to modify any guests names or the time of your entrance to Galaxy’s Edge. So reserve wisely! Here are the other rules of reservations:
