Disney World has been HOPPING recently during the holidays as guests return to explore the parks (complete with snoap) and ride their favorite attractions.

However, now that Disney has increased its capacity to 35% and installed plexiglass barriers on select attractions, we’ve been keeping our eyes on the wait times in each park.

And, we’ve got a look at what the average wait times were like last week at some of the most popular attractions in Disney World!

Magic Kingdom

The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is a must-do whenever you’re in the Magic Kingdom! And, many guests visiting the parks recently thought so too since the average wait was 56 minutes.

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is the wildest ride in the wilderness for folks of all ages as the wait times sat at 39 minutes.

Now that the Jungle Cruise has transformed to the Jingle Cruise, it’s no surprise that the wait time average was 37 minutes!

Since Peter Pan’s Flight is such a classic, we can’t pass up riding it whenever we’re in Disney World. And, guests heading to the Magic Kingdom were ready to take flight in the ride’s pirate ships after an average 26 minute wait!

We love heading to Arendelle aboard the Frozen Ever After log ride (whether it’s for the first time in forever or the hundredth time)! And, many fans were excited about seeing Anna and Elsa too as the attraction had about an average 59 minute wait.

Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is a blast to explore, whether you’re getting a Ronto Wrap or waving to Chewbacca! Plus, the ability to pilot the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run is just another perk with an average 45 minute wait.
