"Star Wars Launch Bay will take guests into the Star Wars saga and the upcoming film, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, with special exhibits and peeks behind-the-scenes, special merchandise and opportunities to encounter Chewbacca and Darth Vader."
"Encounter Han Solo’s trusty sidekick, Chewbacca, for a furry photo and—if you’re brave enough—dare to take a picture with the menacing Dark Lord of the Sith himself, Darth Vader."
This about sums up the info from Disney as to Characters in Launch Bay.
and
There is going to be a special Meet & Greet for CHASE DISNEY VISA holders not AP holders, it was announced as Darth Vader earlier -
"Feel the power of the Force at the Star Wars Imperial Meet ‘N’ Greet at our private Cardmember location at Walt Disney World® Resort starting early 2016. Available to all Disney Visa Credit Cardmembers."
Am I the only one confused as to how the Disney VISA M&G is special in any way when Vader will be at another M&G? Is my brain just fried from all the disappointment?

Must confess that I don't know... We've never been interested in that one! You're probably right... Probably just shorter wait.Maybe there will be fewer guests? How is the Chase M&G in Epcot special? Don't those same characters meet elsewhere in Epcot and definitely at MK?

O-EM-GEE!! That IS something special... LOL!!!The Visa M&G will use the alternative costume
I'm sorry I missed your post.We're going to be DHS on 12/8/15...
So Launch Bay opens December 1st and should stay open, right?
Is this where the M&G is for Darth Vader & Chewy?
Is there a special M&G for AP members and/or card holders? We are both. And if so where?

What does "Resort" mean there? Will it be at DHS?
While it isn't the CMs fault, I would absolutely call that number back and give feedback now that this decision was made. That's probably more likely to be heard up the chain than an email at this point.I still have the phone number for the Guest Relations CM who assured me that Disney was taking all Star Wars-related guest feedback into account. I feel like I should call her and tell her what I think of her prior statements that Disney is listening to Star Wars fans.
thanks for the kind words it was great to meet you and your son this year. Maybe we'll meet at Universal?Well, I just broke the news to my son about cancelling SWW, and he is very disappointed. First and foremost I would like to thank @yulilin3 for all of your hard work in keeping us updated and posted on SWW news over the years.
My son and I have met many amazing people during the past five years. Too many in fact to list them all, but we enjoyed meeting everyone. Will still keep in contact with several people from around the country.
I just priced out a long Harry Potter weekend for my son an I to replace SWW. I was surprised at how affordable it is. All that is left to do is cancel my DVC reservation, bank my points, and book Cabana Bay.
I'm sorry I missed your post.
Launch Bay will open December first and stay open, no end in site, I'm thinking at least until SWLand is open, they might update it with props from the new movies as they come out
This is where Vader and Chewbacca will meet
Vader also has a special meet and greet for Visa Card holders, exactly how that will work we have no idea
