Figment closed?

[Jestocost]

Josh had a recent post discussing wait times, and he said that, in 2015, Figment's wait time was over 30 minutes 187 times. That's pretty shocking! Sure, there will be times where there's no wait for Figment, but with FP+, it's no longer a ride that "never" has a line.

Which means that at some moment on about half of the days in 2015 Figment had a posted wait time of 30 minutes or longer. On about half of the days the line never once reached 30 minutes and for all we know it only hit 30 minutes briefly on the other half. I will concede that the data certainly suggests that under FP+ more traffic is being diverted to Figment and other low-volume attractions. I do not think, however, that available quantitative data supports a statement that wait times "routinely" exceed 20 minutes except during peak periods.

Based on the Disney World website, it's scheduled to operate today from 9 to 9. I'd say it broke down and is closed temporarily while the attempt to get it running again.

And since they are keeping it open until park close, pretty sure there would never be a wait from 3pm until close.

Why does anyone care how anyone else uses their fastpass+ ? It is their choice how they use it and not worth starting a fight over. Many people pick a not busy ride in Epcot, because they have to burn that pesky 3rd FP+, before they can get a 4,5,6 ect ect.

To the OP, I would keep my FP, if the ride is going to be closed during or longer than your FP time they will notify you and left you choose a different ride or keep your FP for use when Figment is back up and running.

Why does anyone post advice about anything?
You just posted telling the OP what to do.

No I did not, I told them what I would do and what has happened to us. I did not say "You should" if I had, I would have been telling them what to do.
