The bottom line. But I've experienced RotR several times, all without incident and I'm glad I did. It's totally immersive and unlike anything else at Disney World. So yes, it's true: Rise of the Resistance is not to be missed!

Rise of the Resistance sells out first of all of the ILL attractions, around 11 am. By just after 7 am, the earliest return times are already up to 2 pm. And at 9 am, when off-site guests are eligible to purchase because the park opened, we see an immediate 2-hour jump in available times.

2. You can only use the Lightning Lane for an attraction once a day. Unlike with Fastpass, you are only allowed access the Lightning Lane once per day per attraction. So if you wanna ride an attraction multiple times, you'll be using that standby line for all but one of your turns.

Can you have more than one Genie+ Lightning Lane reservation at a time? Yes. The Genie 120-minute rule says that you can always make a new reservation if two hours have passed since you made the last one, or two hours since park opening if you made the reservation before the park opened.

Know when bookings run out. As with Genie+, individual Lightning Lanes can run out of return times. Generally you'll go into your day knowing what rides you're going to book, and you'll do that ASAP. But some days you might decide to wait and see how your morning goes.

Of course, our advice is to use the restroom before you enter the queue because seeing backstage areas could take you out of the magic a bit, but if you can't time it perfectly, it should come as a relief to know that the Rise of the Resistance attraction does, in fact, have restrooms available from the queue.

In case you haven't experienced it more than once, I can tell you that there are two very distinct and different experiences for this attraction no matter which coast you are on. Because I'm not sure if you are with the Resistance or the First Order, I can't tell you about those different experiences.
