The RANDOM Reason Why Rise of the Resistance Is Different Than Other Disney World Rides

Although there are now newer rides in Disney World, Rise of the Resistance still tends to be the most popular ride in the parks!

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, and TRON Lightcycle / Run opened after, but the Star Wars-themed attraction keeps people coming back again and again. That’s why we wanted to point out a recent difference between this ride and the rest in Disney World!

Wait times have continued to decrease since the end of the spring break season, but Rise of the Resistance saw a major increase over the past week. Let’s take a look!

Wait times continue to dip, but you should still note the highest wait times in Magic Kingdom. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is still the highest wait time and it offers Individual Lightning Lanes if you’d like to pay to skip that line.
