About this ride

Before boarding, you pass through Hondo Ohnaka's hangar bay with an animatronic Hondo assigning your crew its mission. Inside the cockpit, two pilots control throttle and steering, two gunners control weapons, and two engineers manage repairs. The cockpit is stunning — every button and panel is accurate to the films.

Best time to ride

Multi Pass this one on busy days. Best strategy is to ride twice: once as a pilot and once as a gunner or engineer to experience the difference.

Insider tips

  • Ask to be assigned pilot seats when you board — front two seats have the most active role.
  • Engineers: hit your panels as fast as possible when prompted. Speed matters.
  • The queue through the Millennium Falcon's underbelly is stunning — take your time.
  • Walk around the full-scale Falcon exterior in Galaxy's Edge before or after riding.
  • A perfect run as a skilled crew really does feel different from a disastrous one.

What to know before you ride

  • Motion sickness potential — fast-moving visuals on a large screen.
  • Not recommended for guests prone to motion sickness.
  • Otherwise mild.

Mateo's Take

Sitting in the pilot seat of the Millennium Falcon with your hands on the controls is a once-in-a-lifetime Star Wars experience. Request pilot seats every time.
