How are opening lines without EE?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has been recently since EE has been eliminated for hotel guests. How are the lines into the parks now in the morning? How is the line into DCA from GCH now? How early do you all recommend getting to the gate now for park opening? I have never been to DL without EE. (When we stayed off property, we always went to the opposite park or it was when they used to give you EE with your 3 or more day ticket). So I am a little nervous about how long these new lines are and how early to get to the gates, and would love to hear how it is going from anyone who has been recently. Thank you so much!

Bumping because I'm curious about this, too.

On MLK weekend, Sunday and Monday were about 10 minutes at 8:10 am at Harbor security. Entry gates lines were back not quite to middle of esplanade. Entry seemed very slow but apparently there were lots of first timers with those Costco tickets, at least that is what people were saying up and down the line...and if I ever am fortunate enough to run into Josh d'Amaro, my first comment will be " Why the heck don't we have Magic Band only lines???!"

However, on Tuesday...I walked right through both...literally NO LINES...blew me away....exact same schedule.

Bottom line is that it depends on when you go...
Hopefully someone will speak to lines from GCH....

Probably the same reason their isn't MK lines. People would get in the wrong line. It would also be very difficult to know what lines are MB or MK unless you are right in front of the gates.
