Rise of the Resistance isn’t a new attraction. It’s a bit newer at Disneyland than it seems because the park was closed for a year only a few months after the attraction opened. And so, if you didn’t have a chance to visit Disney World, that saw the ride first, and reopened sooner, then you’ve only had a few months of total time to give it a try. This may be why Disneyland has had to use a standing queue for the first-time.
Walt Disney World It opened its standby lineRise of the Resistance, the waiting time While quite high,The morning of the first day, the crowd calmed down quickly. They did so again later in the afternoon. Now, Waiting for Rise of the Resistance has been largely comparable to any other E-ticket attraction. But when? Disneyland opened the lineThings were even worse this week.

The first few days were wild. The virtual queue system was the only way to board Rise of the Resistance before. If you weren’t fast enough, you lost your chance to board a group. There is now a guarantee that everyone can get on the ride. Even if that means you have to wait a long time. It will be up for debate whether a wait of two and a quarter hours or three hours is reasonable.
Although a wait of three hours might seem unreasonable or crazy depending on how eager someone is to ride Rise of the Resistance it was not over two hours. In the past few days, wait times have been shorter.
#Disneyland yesterday changed Rise of the Resistance to board groups and a wait-and-see system. With a posted wait of 60 minutes, we were in line for 9 minutes. The actual wait was 44 minutes. The actual wait time is now at 120 minutes. That’s pretty good!November 23, 2021
There have been times when the wait was insane, but not too long. It seems like you’ll have to give up fireworks in order to be able wait that long. And I’m not sure that’s entirely worth it.
Sorry Believe in Holiday Magic Fireworks you are no longer priority https://t.co/ZTu94gApWANovember 23, 2021
Officially Disneyland operates a hybrid system to support Rise of the Resistance. may use virtual queuesOn busier days, you can do standby while on other days. It is possible that the goal is to go straight to the standby queue.
Walt Disney World moved into a standby queue just before it opened its newest attraction, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, at Epcot that uses virtual queues. It also Introduced the Genie+ system and the Lightning Lanes, the replacement for FastPass, shortly thereafter and it seems like that’s the plan here as well. While Disneyland hasn’t revealed when Genie+ will launch at the park, it will likely be soon. If guests are willing to pay a small amount, they won’t have long waits in line.
