Ask a Disney Question: Will Jedi Training Academy Be Affected by Star Tours Closing?

This question comes from Shep, who asks: 

 “We have a huge 9 year old Star Wars fan in the family and we are headed to Disney World the week after Thanksgiving 2010.  He has heard about the Jedi Training Academy and I am wondering if that attraction will be temporarily closed when Disney closes Star Tours for refurbishments. Any word on that?”

Shep, thanks for your question and for reading the site.  I double-checked this with Disney and you’ll be happy to know that although Star Tours is right next to the Jedi  Training Academy, it won’t affect the show, so your little one can join the other Padawans and fight Darth Vader and the Storm Troopers. It’s a  lot of fun, one of the highlights of my seven-year old’s trip last December.

For information on what to expect and how to make sure your Padawan gets his or her turn, check out this article.  Biggest piece of advice: Get there early so you won’t have to wait all day.

Good luck!
