What is the longest time you have ever waited for a Disney attraction?

Mine was Indiana Jones. A 60 minute wait turned into a 75 minute wait because the ride kept breaking down. It even broke down when I was on the ride for about 20 minutes.
 
4 hours, the week Captain EO opened...the first time :laughing:

3 hours about a month after Star Tours opened.

Other than that...about an hour for Space Mountain, before FastPasses.
 
Wow, we rode captain EO on the first day 2/23 (i think it might have been the first "normal" run, during Magic Morning) and it was about 10 minutes wait. I guess we really lucked out. Cant imagine waiting 4 hours for that. Sorry you had to.

Our worst line during our trip was Astroblasters, and it was because the sign up front said 5 minutes. After getting in line, not that easy to tell a 4 year old to come back later. Still it was only 35 minutes, but it was long to us. This february was our first trip.
 

I rode Captain EO in WDW in 1987, LOL. I don't remember how long we waited, but considering we went in August, we probably waited for everything!

The longest I think I've waited at DLR is about 45 minutes for Nemo. I go fairly often, so there is nothing I feel like I have to endure a long line for, and DS wouldn't stand for it anyway. So if I see a long line for a ride, we'll skip it. If I was by myself or with DH without the kids, I'd be more willing to wait for attractions, but with an impatient 4yo, it's not worth it.
 
Last year on the first day of Ghost Galaxy Space Mountain. We were quoted a 95 min wait but I think we made it in in just over an hour.
 
3.5 hours for Indiana Jones the very first time I rode it. It had been such a long wait that I was totally underwhelmed by the ride and didn't go on it again for a very long time. However, once I gave it a try again, I found that I really love it!

Before Fastpass, probably 75 minutes plus (I remember waiting that long for Space Mountain in the summer, and a lot of the wait on the roof in the sun!). Maybe even longer for Indy but I don't remember. With the shade, Indy was a more pleasant/less memorable queue. :)

After Fastpass, something like 45 minutes for PFF. That's an attraction, right? :flower3: (I don't think we've waited more than 35 minutes for TSMM, though once the wait time was posted at 45 minutes.)
 
We have AP's so there isn't anything that I feel like waiting too long for.. I just skip it and go the next time if necessary. But last year DH and I went for 3 days by ourselves without the kids and waited in line to ride Space for about 75 minutes or so. I would have never done that with the kids, but we were just floating around and didn't mind the wait then. :goodvibes
 
I notice Indiana Jones and Splash Mountain has the worst wait, the crazy part is people still wait in those lines.I have seen Splash Mountain go for a 110 minute and Indiana Jones go to 100 minute wait.
 
Wow, I feel fortunate. I guess we pick good times to go because the longest we've ever waited was 45 minutes for TSMM.
 
Hmmm....

4 hours for Indiana Jones when it first opened. Lines were crazy!

But, the longest I would say would be 5 hours to watch Johnny Depp & Orlando Bloom run past us on their way to the first Pirates Premier @ Disneyland ;)
 
OMG 4 hours now thats love

Yes; yes it is...good thing my parents were very patient :laughing: . Things haven't changed all that much, as I've planned a special trip just to see EO again (only a couple of weeks to go :cheer2:)

haydeecm : Oh, I meant when it first opened in 1986 :3dglasses Fortunately for those of us who want to see Captain EO now, the lines aren't nearly so long!
 
I've waited 2 hours for Nemo (guess when) and I have seen a 4 hour wait for Splash Mountain on July 4, 2003!!!!!
 
4 hours, the week Captain EO opened...the first time :laughing:

3 hours about a month after Star Tours opened.

Other than that...about an hour for Space Mountain, before FastPasses.

:eek:

I HOPE its not like that next month when I'm going to see EO.
 
We stood in a pretty crummy hot angry stinky line for about 3 hours to see (please dont laugh) Monsters Inc when it first opened. The ride itself took about 3 minutes! :laughing:
 
:eek:

I HOPE its not like that next month when I'm going to see EO.

That was when it opened in 1986 :3dglasses ...the wait is alot more reasonable now :laughing: . I'm going to get to see it after all these years next month (well, in 2 weeks) too...so I'm glad that the wait times aren't as crazy now as they were then! :thumbsup2
