Double Rider Line Quietly Debuts at Disneyland’s Smugglers Run
The quietly added option on the role-based Star Wars ride is already changing how pairs weigh wait time versus staying together.
Overview
- The Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run attraction now offers a Double Rider queue alongside Single Rider at Disneyland, first observed by guests on January 28.
- Disney introduced the option without a formal announcement, leaving guests to discover the change at the entrance.
- The new line lets pairs attempt to ride together with a shorter wait, though specific cockpit roles and seating are not guaranteed.
- Reporters on site note more pauses and negotiations at the queue entrance as groups reassess tradeoffs, altering the boarding dynamic.
- Guest reactions are mixed, and Disney has not explained the rationale or permanence, with observers treating it as a possible capacity or crowd-management test.
