You mean those are the dates, because the reservation tickets themselves aren’t available yet. You gave me a heart attack after I saw “available”! Lol  :D All good!

Yes, just the ticket! Not the reservation.  The websites and articles say a reservation isn't required after Jun 23rd, though I suppose some things could change.

Haha yep.  I'm grateful so many people are looking out for me though!  Bought my ticket yesterday.  So I've got my airfare both to California and back, my hotel for Disneyland, my Disneyland ticket, my SDCC badge....  now just waiting for the Hotelpocalypse and I'll be set.

I'm from out of state...how hard is it to drive from San Diego to Disneyland? How long would it take? I'm from a rural area but have some experience driving in Chicago traffic and on one vacation around San Diego (non-Comic Con time) but you hear so many horror stories about driving the California freeways. I was thinking of going for a day on the Tuesday after the Con. Do you think everyone else will have the same idea?

I think you'll be fine.  Yes, California drivers are jerks, but just take caution and you'll be fine.  It's about an hour and a half to two hour drive so if possible I'd stay in Anaheim.  Personally, I'm doing the trip BEFORE the con.  So I think there will be a good mix of people doing it before and people doing it after.  And many just not doing it at all.  Pulling a number completely out of my butt here, but I wouldn't expect it'd affect capacity by more than a couple thousand? Which isn't noticeable at Disneyland really.

Thanks! I am excited about the opportunity to go! I've never been to Disneyland, just Disney World so I don't know the area at all. I think I will take your advice about staying in Anaheim. I imagine it will be lines everywhere still in July but after SDCC I'll be a pro, right?

Merged newer thread ("Star Wars Galaxy Edge opening May 31 @ Disneyland, August 29th @ Disneyworld") into older thread ("Will Star Wars land at Disneyland be open before SDCC?") to avoid confusion between two threads on the same topic.

As this isn't actually related to SDCC discussions, this will be housed in the Off-Topic Chat (where the newer thread was created).

Retained newer thread's title to indicate actual opening dates for clarification. ^__~

Agree with @Angel_! The drive isn’t bad at all; just allow buffer time for traffic and use caution.

DLand is easier to navigate than WDW! There are many non-Disney hotels within walking distance!

Thanks Zero! Haha I put it in General initially because I was planning it around SDCC, but now it's just an all around discussion so yeah off topic seems right haha. Thank you.

I've done the drive a few times and it's not too bad actually. You'll need to do a few u turns but it's not insane.

We're going Tuesday as well and we've done it twice. It's busy but not bad.
