Rise of the Resistance BOARDING GROUPS Superthread Part 1 *No Ride Spoilers Please* *PLEASE READ POSTS 1-4*

[Katiebird]

I got that “digital experiences unavailable” message several times today, too. I didn’t notice anything amiss, other than it timing out for me this morning, obviously.

It’s been glitchy in general lately though, it doesn’t like to open my flex pass reservations (often I have to use the website for that instead of the app).

For any plus sized guests I belong to a Facebook group called Disney for Plus sized guests and they talk about experience with the ride vehicles.

Overall the consensus has been some people have mentioned is if they are a female size 26/28 or above or have larger hips then getting into the actual ride car but otherwise it's been fine.

There is reportedly a ride vehicle that has an extra wide opening for those who need extra assistance and to inquire with the very last CM if needed. Seat belts have not been a concern just the molded seats.

Thank you for posting this -- I'll add it to the FAQs on page one.

Heading out to the park today from Chicago. Wishing that boarding groups would last till we arrive around 12pm today.

Not even a fairy godmother could grant that wish unfortunately

So true

Gates opened at 7:08 today. First time doing this, surprised shops and restaurants aren’t open

Thanks, I was just about to ask! Twitter showed someone getting there at 7:16 and finding the turnstiles admitting already.

May the Force be with you!

Today is our first time on the left coast trying for a BG. Got to the bagcheck around 7:25 with minimal wait. In DL park at 7:33am. Grabbed a Radiator Springs fastpass via Maxpass for 8:30am. As posted above, shocked the shops aren't open. And the coffee line is crazy....wish it was an option with Maxpass .

Weather is perfect so seems like it will be a great day. Good luck to everyone else trying for a BG!

EDIT: My Join BG never lit up but luckily my bf had success. BG 49!!

67! We’re into backups already

 

[Peachy0118]

Played from home. Worked normally right at 9. Went out, then went back in to try again another way (since practice makes perfect!) And I got that "something went wrong" note. First time seeing that...

hope things went okay for people actually in the parks!

 

[sherilaine]

I just tried it from home right now at 8:01 PST and I was of course told we are not yet in the park - ha ha - which we are not since we are in Calgary!! But it worked smooth as anything! Just tried it again and now it shows backup boarding groups being offered.

I won't play around anymore from home as I do wonder if that could interfere with those actually in the parks - hope it works well for everyone there today!!

 

[pokee99]

Hmmm... I've played from home a few times...but never seen this. It was in at 8:00:30. After I clicked join boarding group it was hanging...

 

[ironband74]

Playing at home used my normal approach and everything seems normal on my end. Regulars gone at 8:01:00. Backups still being distributed at 8:06

 

[whacked]

BG 66. Hopefully the Jawas stay home.

I have been getting that random message 2 days in a row now . Must be a glitch . I have never been "stuck" on it , was always able to back out and get right back in and click on "join a boarding group" with no issues , so far .

I got this too. I got in right at 8 and then backed out, went back in and the message came up. I wonder if it was at the switch between regular and backup groups?

I dont think it was due to a switch over to back-ups . I got it pretty early in , and was still able to back out, then return and "join a boarding group" not in back-up several times after that .
Looks like back-ups started about 60 seconds in again today .......

 

[ironband74]

Backups are gone now, didn't see when they finished (Edit: Thrilldata puts it at 8:18). First backup is 81 today.

DHS is clicking along yesterday's line so far today. Hopefully today is the day we turn it around...
