It’s Christmas week, and we’ve been watching both the wait times and crowds steadily grow.
Wait times have only gotten higher as the week has gone on, with popular rides even hitting wait times of nearly five hours in the parks. So, what did the week look like on average?
Well, while Genie+ and Individual Attraction Selections may have hit some of their highest prices yet, they could still have potentially been worth it to save some time in Disney World. That’s because several rides hit average wait times of two hours or more this week!
The longest of them all was at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, where the average wait for Flight of Passage was nearly 2.5 hours!
Let’s take a look at ALL the average wait times for Disney World rides this past week!

At Magic Kingdom, the usual suspects had the longest wait times. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train was number one, with an average wait of an hour and 22 minutes. Jingle Cruise and Peter Pan’s Flight were runners-up, with waits of 54 and 63 minutes respectively.
