Crush's Coaster strategy

[KatyTheFairyPrincess]

I'm pretty sure that CC wasn't listed as closed for next week, but I've checked again today and its there
Now its closing on Monday, and we arrive Sunday evening. The plan was to just spend the evening in Disneyland Park and Disney Village, but now I'm going to have to work in going across to the Studios.

So if the park closes at 7, am I right in thinking that if I go over about 6.30 and get in the line that it might not be that bad?

I wouldn't mind but its my Mums first visit to DLP after numerous WDW trips and she's been to DLHK as well, and I've wittered on about how Crush's Coaster is the best thing since sliced bread so not riding it is not an option

Hi, I've been told in the past that if you get in line just before park closing the wait can be quite short even if the wait time shown is still long. We've never got around to trying this ourselves though.

Hi Katy

We normally rush to do Crush first thing in the morning and then go back again around 40mins before closing time - we have even been lucky to be able to ride it twice in the last 30mins before it closed

Good luck and have a fab trip!

Brilliant! I thought going just before park close might be worth a try, nice to hear that it could actually work
My whole morning strategys been thrown off by not having to leave to go to the studios at 9.30am, should make for a more relaxed morning routine I suppose!

Last February we were at WDS about half an hour before it closed, and the wait time for Crush was still at about 80 minutes.

So I guess it just depends on the moment.

Not sure if they also close lines at a certain time? So might be possible what someone else here said, that those minutes shown might not be correct anymore near the end.

Crush was listed for closure while we were there 10 to 14 June and it was open the whole time :-D. We rode it during the day when it showed 50 min wait but actually got on within 30 mins!!!!!! We also made it the last ride each evening and the q moved really quickly and we got on most evenings within 20 mins. Hope it works out for you x

At least this proves I'm not going mad! I was certain it wasn't showing as closed for our dates a couple of weeks ago.
I'm resigned to the fact we may not get to ride it but at least I knew before we got out there, I'm sure a lot of people wouldn't recheck this close to travel
