Posted some of this in the big thread on the Rumors board but wanted to put here too with a little more detail.
Was at DHS yesterday and on the first bus from our resort (CSR), but we were held at temp check (and a fair amount of people in front of us). Once that opened up, we got through very quickly and DD and I waited maybe 20 minutes for MMRR. DD didn't want to ride MFSR and waited by Rise while I walked over to get on that line just before official park open. I was off by around 10:25 and it had jumped up to a 45 min. wait (it was listed as 5 when I got on line, but I waited slightly longer).
It looks they started boarding Rise prior to park opening, but not sure how early. We were group 11 and was called just prior to 10; we had until 10:50 to get there. Rise looked to have a great day yesterday.
After RoTR (awesome! and appeared everything was working), we put in a mobile order at Backlot Express to try some of the Christmas treats (breakfast lol) and it was at Backlot's 11 a.m. opening when we picked up our order. Then we did Star Tours, Frozen, watched calvacades, wandered around, did the Visa magic shot over at Launch Bay and had lunch at H&V at 2:30.
Wait times weren't bad. DD used her
DAS three times in total yesterday (two MMRR once afternoon - once at night, and once for Star Tours.) Standby wasn't long starting in the afternoon. We went back to Star Tours (walk on), then also walked on to Aliens and Midway. Did not ride ToT or RnR since DD can't do those rides (or Slinky). While DD was doing MMRR at night I went on Slinky with a posted 40 minute wait around 5:45 pm, I waited 15 maybe? I got off Slinky at about the same time DD was off MMRR.
We stayed until after park close with a 7:15 Oga's reservation but they let us in about 6:55. I saw them take one walk up. It was only one person though, it looked like the CM was going to say no to walk up request until he asked "how many?" I overheard the single party tell the rest of his group he'd catch up with them. So they may or may not be taking smaller groups walk ups depending on capacity at the time.
Overall, DHS felt less busy than it did in mid-August. Not sure if it was a fluke or the BG process has people canceling if they don't get one or if the threat of the rain had to do with it? Maybe a combination of all three.
It did start raining late in the day and that seemed to clear the park out.
Edited to add: The one ride that did seem 60+ minutes all day was MMRR.
