At 62 already, backups next!
You're assuming everyone is following this or a similar discussion. There are still a large number of Guests (perhaps the majority) who have no idea what's been going on with BG's. And remember, it's only the past week that BG's have been selling out in under 5 minutes. Even Guests who did some prep may not have been checking the discussion up to the minute.I wonder if anyone who arrived at HS shortly after 8am even bothered to check for Boarding groups. I‘m sure most people would have hought they‘d be long gone.
If your concierge is giving you advice about crowds for this weekend I would take it over any of our opinions. I would ask the concierge for a recommendation on what time to leave.Hi! We’re at Polynesian this weekend. We were planning to take a 7am Minnie Van from Poly to HS on Sunday but with the Half Marathon our concierge is saying we won’t get there in time to get through the tapstiles and bag check. Should we move the Minnie Van to 6:30? Will that give us enough time?
I had been wondering about that.When we had issues over Pres Day weekend (& had to rely on visiting & revisiting GS to sort things out) more than one CM expressed that:
Even if guests try exacty at the get-go for boarding groups, it is basically a lottery as to whom gets what boarding group, if any
& not a popular sentiment here, but...
When I brought up subject of how people outside the park are ‘practicing’, those I spoke to agreed that the extra traffic is likely slowing down the app for those in the parks. However, there is no way in place to stop it.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I do assume at this point, that most people whose goal is to arrive for opening at HS know how quickly boarding groups are gone, especially since it’s been almost 3 weeks since back up boarding groups lasted for more then 40 minutes and that was on a 7am opening.You're assuming everyone is following this or a similar discussion.

I'm sure there are plenty of people who don't even realize there are boarding groups. Just like there are people who don't realize there are Fastpasses or that they're free.Maybe I’m wrong, but I do assume at this point, that most people whose goal is to arrive for opening at HS know how quickly boarding groups are gone, especially since it’s been almost 3 weeks since back up boarding groups lasted for more then 40 minutes and that was on a 7am opening.
Definitely. There are always going to be people who don’t know about anything.I'm sure there are plenty of people who don't even realize there are boarding groups. Just like there are people who don't realize there are Fastpasses or that they're free.
But.. they would. Everyone is still trying at 8 to get a boarding group. So those fill super quickly as they always would, then there are just less people looking for backups, so those fill less quickly. The demand is still there at 8.
I see people talking about getting to the park hours early. If they let everyone in an hour before it opens and the boarding groups aren't available until park opening, why are people arriving SO early? Does it take hours to let everyone through the turnstiles? The crowd levels are 9/10 during our upcoming trip and I don't know how many hours early to arrive!
Can anyone ask the CMs if they have any idea who is the engineer who got back from vacation last couple of days?
