Tron AP preview thread

9am

Thanks, I thought it was 15 or so minutes before 9 but I now I remember seeing people getting emails around 9:15-30 am. I had already booked my time when the emails came in for people.

Also at least with Guardians, the link went live maybe 15-20 minutes before people started receiving emails (don't remember the exact time, maybe someone else does?)

I got in the queue early for GOTG because of the link on this page. I got the email around 9am when it went live. Some people didn't get the email until 9:05 and missed out.

I've got my DVC window open and counting down to 11:00.
Now waiting for AP.

APs don’t need a hotel reservation.

Normal for DVC...

AP there is no "stay" requirement, as they are really looking for locals.

Thank you

If they using the same D23 queue-it system, it will be random. Opening up the queue early makes no difference. Then again, thickets should last more than 6 or 7 minutes unlike D23.

Frantically refreshing email and see one from Disney, only for them to announce a price increase for DVC one time use points!

thing is, you won't need a MK reservation to take part in a preview. Not sure whether most guests know that but AP holders probably do

I think they are taking about people who hope to get a soft opening. Walk up. Even though they've not done that in years

 

[Mrs.AMC]

Disney discussion forums are not going to be the place for inside information

Guardians had 2 dvc dates about a week apart. They overlapped with ap dates but were at different times. Tron has 3 dvc dates in a row, and it seems like they will be full day previews.

AP previews could definitely happen on the same days but it seems very unlikely.
If overlapping wasn't a problem then they would be happening right now alongside CM previews.

I guess I don't see complaining about something you don't even know is happening

CM previews are always sperate
Other previews always overlap
I sure wouldn't complain they won't this time
Could DVC go first? Sure. Then you can complain if it happens
Till then don't assume it won't

While I am not going to give Disney any ideas... Can you imagine them doing paid soft openings in a pop up event? It would be like D23, but no registration needed. They would make a killing.

The last time I got a soft opening walk up was back in 2003. They were opening Mission space. My family was leaving for the day and a cast member was on a scooter and they approached us asking if we were leaving for the day. We said yes. He asked if the 4 of us would like to ride this new ride and so we did.

I really hope so!
Never get any emails. AP and DVC

For those of you who experienced these 'preview' queues before, or have knowledge, what should we expect at 11:00 with the dvc preview? It's 4/5/6. Do we feel lucky and grateful if we're handed a particular day/time? Or might there be an option to select a particular day or a particular return time? It sounds like these things go so quickly that getting any slot is a bonus. Just curious if there's any potential choice at all.

last time for guardians you got to select the day and time based on what was available.
