Rise of the Resistance

Visiting Batuu (by way of Galaxy’s Edge) is essential to the Starcruiser experience; it’s part of your story to get coaxium fuel, escape the First Order, and smuggle Chewbacca on board. The downside? Being in a packed crowd of regular Disney World guests erases any suspension of disbelief. It also takes up a lot of time even with the unlimited access to cut the lines that your Halcyon pin grants you. You’d expect to interact with more story aspects and characters, but it amounts to limited experiences off the ship, sweating in the humidity while trying to unlock more schematics on your phone while it heats up and starts to die. I found myself looking forward to getting back on the ship and resuming the character stories around me.
