Disney Vacation Planner

We noticed something interesting this week in terms of wait time trends. EVERY Disney World park boasted LOWER average attraction wait times across the board, which we very rarely or ever see.

Walt Disney World

Magic Kingdom

Here are the average weekly wait times for each ride below, from shortest to longest wait time.

(NOTE: Since Tron Lightcycle/Run and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure do not use standby lines, we have not included them here.)

Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

The Magic Kingdom saw dips in wait time across the board this week. Pretty much every ride at the park saw a drop of at least several minutes this week.
(REMINDER: TRON Lightcycle / Run does not currently use a standby queue; it’s not included here, and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure does not have a standby queue yet.)

Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Read the list below to see the averages of the Hollywood Studios ride wait times, from low to high.

Hollywood Studios joined its fellow parks in seeing wait times dip this week, though to a slightly lesser extent than Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, and Animal Kingdom.

EPCOT

See the average EPCOT attraction wait times from the week below.

(NOTE: Since Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind does not use a standby line, we have not included it here)

Frozen Ever After

EPCOT’s  also saw some dips this week, with both Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and Frozen ever after dipping below 46 minutes.
(NOTE: Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind does not currently use a standby queue, so it’s not included here.)

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

The average wait times for Animal Kingdom’s attractions are listed below.

Expedition Everest

Even Animal Kingdom’s Flight of Passage, Disney’s near undisputed champion of average weekly wait times in recent years, saw a huge drop this week, falling to just 61 minutes.
