If you think the wait times were bad last week, buckle up!

Park Pass Reservations have been selling out all week, Genie+ continues to sell out (although prices have gone down), and we’ve noticed high crowd levels around the parks. It may seem like the first week of January should be better when it comes to wait times, but based on our average wait time data, that is far from the truth.
Let’s take a look at the average wait times in all four Disney World parks from the past week.
