Star Wars: Millennium Falcon-- Smuggler's Run

Disneyland History for Middle School Readers
Star Wars: Millennium Falcon – Smugglers Run is a motion simulator attraction, based on the Star Wars film series created by George Lucas. Located in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, the attraction opened on May 31, 2019 in Disneyland.
Park guests are seated in a 6-passenger motion simulator, themed after the Millennium Falcon. Guests go on an interactive "smuggling mission" with each guest on the attraction being assigned a different crew role. The story is set between the films The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker.
Smuggler's Run is located in the center of Black Spire Outpost at the entrance to Ohnaka Transport Solutions. The queue begins outside, wrapping around behind a life-size Millennium Falcon parked outside. The queue continues through an engine room/mechanic shop which then leads to the command center where Audio-Animatronics of Hondo Ohnaka and R5-P8 explain what the ride is about. The two characters were first seen in Star Wars: The Clone Wars and the animatronic is voiced by Jim Cummings. After listening to Hondo Ohnaka and R5-P8, everyone is handed a boarding pass which states their role in the ride. Each player can have one of three jobs--pilot, gunner, or engineer. Everyone is grouped into six riders (two of each job) and are given a color which is then called when ready to board. While riders wait for their color to be called, they get to explore the inside of the Millennium Falcon. Once their group color is called, riders walk down the corridors of the Millennium Falcon to the cockpit where the ride begins.
Riders begin their ride experience by loading into the cockpit of the Millennium Falcon. The two pilots sit in the front row–the left pilot moves the ship left and right, and the right pilot moves the ship up and down. The next row holds the gunners who press buttons to shoot down enemies and obstacles in the way. The back row seats the two engineers who work to repair the ship during the flight.
Similar to Epcot's Mission: SPACE, Smugglers Run is an interactive ride, with every guest having a role in the mission. Lasting four and a half minutes, the ride takes the guests on a mission led by Hondo Ohnaka and R5-P8 to steal precious cargo from the First Order TIE fighters. How well each rider performs determines the success of the mission.
The ride is made up of several simulators mounted on a turntable that rotates periodically. Riders that finish early receive longer messages from Hondo while they wait.
