Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run wait times

What it is

A motion simulator in which your group flies the Millennium Falcon. Each person has a job — pilot, gunner or engineer — so how bumpy it gets depends on your pilot.

Thrill level: ●●●●● Moderate (3/5) · motion-sickness risk · interactive · indoors · must be 38 in (97 cm) or taller

Opened: 29 August 2019 (7 years ago)

Best time to ride

Quietest: around 10pm (typically ~10 min posted). Busiest: around 11am (~40 min). In the first 15 minutes after the park opens it typically posts ~15 min.

Typical means the median posted wait across every day in our log at that hour; crowd level, weather and breakdowns move it. For a specific date, the planner adjusts for that day’s forecast crowd.

Posted vs real wait

Disney’s posted waits run high. For Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, a posted 60 minutes at 2pm has typically meant about 44 minutes in line, and at 8pm about 33 (from timed waits people recorded, 2015–2021 — before today’s Lightning Lane system, so treat it as an estimate). DisneyIQ shows both numbers on the live board.

Did you know?

The Falcon parked outside is full size.

Pilots who crash the ship hard get a bumpier, more chaotic ride.
