DHS LL for shows - how early to get in line

[MsNewsradio]

If a group has a LL for the Little Mermaid or Indy shows, how far ahead of the show do they need to show up to enter? Is there a cut-off prior to showtime that the LL would no longer work/be accepted, or does the LL window just encompass right up until showtime? We've never used LL's for shows before, but have a group that plan to for an upcoming trip, as it's a decent crowd day and they aren't really thrill ride people.

Your LL is good for the entire one hour window. For example, if you have a LL time of 9:30am, it's good until 10:30am. Some people have reported being able to use it for up to 2hrs past the time, but that's not guaranteed.

For Little Mermaid, unless they've changed how the allow guests to enter, everyone waits to be seated in the same "holding area." You can enter through the LL and be allowed into the waiting room before guests in the standby line, but everyone mingles in the waiting room. The show runs frequently (maybe every 15-20 minutes), so there's not usually a huge wait there.

Indy has set times. I haven't used a LL there, but I'm assuming LL guests are allowed to enter and choose their seats before the standby line is allowed in. It's a very big theater. If I had a LL for Indy, I'd arrive around 15 minutes before the show. If it's important to you to get a specific seat/area, you could arrive a little earlier, but I wouldn't stress about. There's really not a bad seat in the whole place. Once they allow guests in, the line moves quickly.

Good to know. I wasn't sure if because of the set showtimes, the window would be shorter (e.g. for a specific showtime), or if it was simply show up in the hour window and wait for the next showtime in that span.

The LL for little mermaid is nice for being able to wait among the throng of people inside instead of the throng of people outside. And I guess you get to sit up closer to the front.

Depends which door you enter. But this show is best viewed from a several rows back because of the elevated stage. Especially if you are of small stature.
