They only have times open for about a month in advance. It also does not seem to be a booking, it is more of a reminder.

We just turned up early and walked straight in to see him, then met Kylo ren and BB8 straight after. It was August and they were really quiet.

If you mean the meeting in Star Wars Launch Bay then you don't need to book (in fact I think you *can't* book?). You just turn up and queue.

This is where we met him in the launch bay. If Galaxay Edge meet and greet, I've no idea sorry.

We met him last summer at Launch Bay (Hollywood Studios). First thing we did - was a walk in. Later in the week was just a 15min wait, not long at all. You can't get a fastpass - just a traditional queue.

It’s not usually that long a wait for Chewbacca.

It's not a pre-bookable meet and greet, you just turn up and queue (old school ).

If you're looking at this link, the dates that are further out will be tied to part of the park opening hours which are probably not released yet:

disneyworld/entert...rs-launch-bay/

If you look at today it's 8am-8pm, rather than slots being available to book.

We found he queue to be around 15-20 min but occasionally shorter. Its a highlight of every trip so far. When Kylo was there he was also good- although scared the kids. Cannot wait for Darth vader. BB8 is a bit odd as he just beeps away but usually a shorter wait so we usually nip in.
