Hi

Just looking for any resource that tells me when individual lightning lanes might be sold out on any given day. My family doesn't get up that early and we are going in May. Was most curious about ROTR but curious for all. Is there any place that stores historical times the ILL are no longer available?

Thanks!
 
Definitely RotR can sell out, especially if it’s a busy day. It may sell out even on lighter days, I’m not sure. I bought it on a Saturday in January around 9am and the return time was 2:30pm.

But honestly, if you don’t mind a bit of a wait, you can often catch that ride at 75 minutes or less posted wait time (real wait time will likely be less). We rode on Saturday around 11:30am with a posted wait time of 60 minutes (actual wait was 40 minutes to the preshow).

I don’t know if RSR or Webslingers sell out. Last Saturday WS still had almost immediate returns around 2:30pm.
 
We only had half a day on Tuesday, and couldn't get a ILL on Rise before 1pm when we tried about an hour after rope drop. By 10am, the return time was 6.5 hours. Checked after we left at around 1pm, and they were gone. I expect it sold out by noon.

We waited 90 mins on standby (posted time was 120 mins). Honestly it went by pretty fast. Outside for about 45 mins, then inside with some areas to sit while in line.

Don't waste your $ on ILL In DCA. Webslingers is just okay, and good for one ride, and RSR is better as a single rider standby.
