Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance Lightning Lane Drops & Downtime Reopen Alerts (2026)

Quick Summary & Verified Drop Windows

Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance experiences temporary downtime on roughly 65% of operating days, which pauses Lightning Lane sales and triggers a massive inventory drop 10–15 minutes after the ride reopens. Disney Edge combines both RIDE_REOPENS alerts and autonomous LIGHTNING_DROP auto-booking so you capture post-downtime waves immediately.
