2 hour wait
in [Disney Parks]

From: Alpha on 20 Jul 2010 14:43 We're planning on using Lines for our upcoming trip, so I spent a little time today getting to know it. I saw that someone in line for TSM reported a wait time of 120 minutes. It got me wondering -- is there anything I would wait for 2 hours to see or do at WDW? I don't think so. And what would be the maximum amount of time I'd wait in line for something? I remember getting in line for a 30-minute wait for Peter Pan because my younger son was afraid of 3D movies (older son and DH went to PhilharMagic). Is there anything you would wait in line 2 hours for at WDW? What's the maximum posted wait time that you'd go ahead and step in line for? -- Alpha

For one thing, if we're with "guests" then we make sure that they know the best way to ride rides is to get up in the morning and get moving and beat the lines. I think we've waited 45 minutes (posted wait times) for some things when it's been more than just us two -- but rarely, very rarely. When we're at WDW with friends who are also long-time AP-holders, anything over 30 minutes gets the ki-bosh. The biggest reason I'm hesitant to go to WWoHP anytime soon, the lines and crowds are supposed to be horrific. Blossom

We would rather move on to something else and try again later. I think my threshold would be about 30 minutes. We've been pretty lucky - I don't think we've ever waited longer than 20 minutes or so, even when we've gone during March break. We just get up early, beat the crowds, and see what we really want to see. We just try to adjust our expectations depending on the time of year we go. Good thread! Michelle

He whined the whole time. I was comparing him to a three-year-old-kid until a netfriend pointed out that his own three-year-old is fine in long lines for rides. I offered a swap, but got no takers. :-) Patty

What's > the maximum posted wait time that you'd go ahead and step in line for? > > -- Alpha My limit is about 20-30 minutes, depending on the attraction. Many WDW guests consider their visit to be a "once in a lifetime experience." I have an AP and have been a DVC member for years. I'm not your "typical" guest. If I don't get to ride "it" today, I'll catch it tomorrow, or on the next trip. Chuck (75 days and counting...) |
