We are going on honeymoon for 3 weeks from 1st December next year, having been at this time before we wanted to go again during a 'quieter time' but no chance of that now! We won't be changing dates because of it though

I can't see anything in the area only having a capacity of 850 that is way below what Disney expect from a ride of this magnitude, most of the other rides in Hollywood studio have a capacity of 1800+. Maybe it 850 per mechanism and they will have 2 or more. Crush's coaster in Paris has a capacity of 895 and that is a low capacity ride for Disney

Maybe this is where it has come from- worrying if true- slashfilm/millennium-falcon-ride/

It's an interesting read.
I would say that Jim Hill is good source for Disney history but he's not always reliable on current and future happenings. The capacity estimate is based on there being 7 pods running and how long the ride lasts. This is introduced as being "for comparisons sake"...in other words it's a guess.

Jim is fairly decent with his " insider knowledge " but this ride is being kept will under wraps, he is just have a guess at it

How exciting! After my initial wobble we have decided not to worry about it and just enjoy our honeymoon no point pushing back the honeymoon until 2020 as everyone keeps saying it’s going to be manic for a very very long time!

My OH is hoping that we get lucky and experience a soft opening, as he is a big star wars fan. It isn't the driver for us going back though, and we will just skip HS if it is horrendously busy. There's not enough there to warrant a visit without it, at least not for me.

If it isn't open next October, we will go back in 2021 or 2022 so OH can properly experience it when it's, hopefully, a bit quieter.

So I thought this opened in 2020... doh!

I'm definitely skipping Hollywood Studios for the next few years, most likely Orlando as a whole. Thinking of going back in 2021 for a full trip. Of course there is the possibility of a cheeky Universal/SeaWorld only trip before then, so we will have to see.

It's going to be insane though. Like, TOO insane. Great for Disney and their bottom line I am sure but I don't want to be anywhere near that area for at least 1-2 years after it opens.
