I just got back today. The parks didn't seem too crowded to me, but then I used a touring plan from the Unofficial Guide that worked brilliantly (didn't q for more than 10 minutes and often less). I also only stayed at the parks from 9-12 and then returned at 5.30 and stayed until closing.

So, if you get to the park before it opens you won't stand in line at all. My final night at the Magic Kingdom (Saturday) I saw queues for Space Mountain reach 50 minutes, although Buzz Lightyear was around 20 and I got on the Haunted Mansion in 5 minutes.

At Animal Kingdom two Tuesdays ago, Kali River Rapids got up to an hour.

Disney is always busy during the Summer, but I don't think it is crazy right now. If you go with a plan it'll be fine!

Wow-- those wait times actually sound pretty decent. In March when I was there many rides had 90++ minute waits.

For wait times at the Studios, try http://www.mgmstudios.org/wait.html

What a neat site QuickGold. I never knew anything like that existed.
I agree with kilee, Im encouraged by those wait times. Thanks for posting debkorb.

Wow, that was a very nice site to see It was encouraging to see that wait times the week of our stay were very good same time last year, none for more than 30 minutes. Hopefully the lack of AP and Room Only codes last September weren't responsible because I've still got my fingers crossed for some kind of discount code to become available.

Anyone know of similar "average wait" sites for the other parks?

I just got back. The wait times were ridiculous in the middle of the day. Why people wait 65 minutes to do a 1 minute Peter Pan ride is beyond me. We went to the parks early and the waits were fine. We also did a lot of rides during the parade and fireworks. You can walk on rides at that time.
