Going to Disney World This Week? We Wish You Luck ?

As we celebrate spooky season and get closer and closer to the holidays, things are getting BUSY at Disney World.

This past week, we saw park pass reservations fill up on a random date in Magic Kingdom and crowds have been higher in the parks overall. Genie+ saw its highest price since July due to demand. Now we’re looking at the wait times from last week, and if you’re going to Disney World soon, we wish you luck.

Almost every single attraction (yes, really) saw an increase in average wait times. We’re not talking a minute here and there — some rides saw 20-minute or more leaps when it comes to average wait times.

Keep scrolling to see a breakdown of this week’s averages so you can make a plan to conquer the parks on your upcoming trip.
