Yes there was a single rider line at the ride entrance on the left, along with a normal line to the right. Park was open as normal, just outside of Galaxy’s Edge was a row of umbrellas with cast members. When we were going in it was virtual line. We told the CM we had a reservation at the cantina and they let us straight in. There was a line for the cantina and then they called your name and let you in. |

We got to Hollywood Studios at 8.30am this morning. We were in boarding group 99 and got let into Galaxy’s Edge at around 10.30. Millennial Falcon was posted at 180 mins wait so didn’t bother. Loads of queues to get into the stores and to buy the special coke bottles. We stayed 30 mins, looked around and left. Saw loads of YouTubers which was cool. Crowds were much better than I thought they’d be to be honest.

I’ve just come back from the Anaheim GE so can answer all of this as WDW will work the same way.
There is a single rider line to the left of the line. Guaranteed to get either gunner or engineer roles, so if you want pilot (and it is AWESOME) then best get in the standby regular line. As for Oga’s - if you have a reservation you’ll get into the land even if it is at capacity. You get 45 mins in there and can order up to two drinks each. Just join the queue 5 or 10 mins before your reservation time and you’re good to go. It’s very well organised so you’ve nothing to worry about. You’ll find the cantina a pleasure to experience as its reservation only. Nobody without a reservation can get in just to see it and take snaps. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask as I’ve spent close to 15 hours in there this week. It’s incredible. |

Single rider isn't open at all times for smugglers run however. It's open intermittently. When it is open the light is on and it's very quick to get through. 5 mins for me at 8.30pm this evening!
You do miss the pre ride show etc in single rider Edited at 03:49 AM. |

I'm here now. Decided to skip the morning madness but when the app said the virtual queue was over we decided to head over about 5pm. Managed to try the quick service options in Docking Bay 7, raid the day one merch, have some great interactions with the immersive cast members, down some blue milk, and ride the incredible Smugglers Run twice (around 60/70 min waits for both). Second time we queued just before park close so when we exited the ride Galaxy's Edge was almost empty leaving us with a fantastic experience with a ton of uninterrupted photo ops.

It's interesting looking at yesterdays queue times for Smuggler's Run:
Unusually, in terms of queue times, it was actually better to have a lie in and get to Galaxy's Edge late in the day rather than getting there super early. The longest queues were at the very start of the day and the queue gradually dropped as the day went on. Looks like you made the right choice. It'll be interesting to see whether the same thing happens today or not.
