Tickets for Disneyland’s Star Wars sold out within two hours

Saturday, 03 May, 2019 0

The first three-week batch of tickets for Disneyland’s eagerly awaited Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge has already sold out – just two hours after going on public sale.

All the coveted four-hour slots through June 24 were snapped up in just a couple of hours when online reservations opened.

The attraction officially opens May 31.

The last resort for impatient fans to see the attraction before late June is by booking a resort hotel.

"We are delighted that our guests are as excited as we are about the May 31 opening of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge," Disneyland spokeswoman Liz Jaeger said.

"Beginning June 24, 2019, reservations will not be required for visits to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and access to Disneyland park, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and experiences will be subject to capacity," Disney said.

Some customers complained the Disney site was slow to load presumably due to sheer number of website visitors.

Disney has taken no risks regarding overcrowding by allotting four-hour slots but hasn’t said what the maximum capacity will be, bearing in mind only one of the two rides will be currently open when it debuts later this month.

The Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run motion simulator attraction will be open but the Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance ride is expected to open later this year.
