News Round Up 2019

I'll be curious to see DHS wait times on the whole for this weekend.
Even with Rise of the Resistance open at partial (half?) capacity, it seems like DHS attractions are not crazy busy.
I'm wondering with TSL fully online, Millennium Falcon, and RotR (at 50%) that it has added enough capacity to really help the park out.
Given the Virtual Queue allows guests to still wander the park and experience other rides, instead of being tied up for 2 hours in a line, I'm surprised the park isn't being reported at busier.

If it's a case of capacity gone up, that is a real good sign, especially if RotR is only at 50%.
 
REPORT

2 hour EMH added to DHS for tomorrow morning

NEWS: Sunday 12/8 Hours Update

DHS park hours for tomorrow in the app are now posted as:

6am - 8am Extra Magic Hours

8am - 9pm Park Hours

It doesn't appear the website is updated yet, but I assume it will be shortly. (The website typically lags the app like that when park hours are adjusted)

Likely a very good change given how the last two days have been managed and throwing in the EMH wrinkle.

Boarding groups already gone for today!
 
Just saw on FB, then confirmed on Disney's site: January has been unblocked for HS for Theme Park Select AP's.
 
Yup-. Seems like right at 8am or just slightly before all were gone

People in for EMH could start joining at 7:20
This is why I'm against virtual queues. Basically if you aren't staying on property you get no chance to ride. And it takes zero effort to wait in a virtual line, so everyone joins. But if there was a physical line only people who really cared about riding would wait in a 2 hour line.

Hopefully they are telling people before they tapi they have no chance of riding ROTR so they can go to a different park.

Edit: just remembered they are putting out signs. Still be good to say it verbally since tons of people ignore signs.

Not true. The last three days I would argue the non-resort guest had a better opportunity. You just have to get there early. Plenty of locals and non resort guests rode multiple times over the last few days. Today was the first real advantage for resort guests.

The off-site people had the same chance - actually many of them did vetter than the onsite people there as if you were riding a ride when the system opened you had issues getting a BG

I think there are some cons to the VQ but Disney has really not provided any benefit to those being onsite
