Longest wait time for an attraction?

[ryansmom]

Just curious....
What is the longest wait time you have ever seen or experienced for an attraction?

We alway go in the fall so never wait more than 15 minutes or use fast pass.

Once on NYE, we did wait 45 minutes to ride Peter Pan (with relatives) I would have never waited.

Though I would never wait more than 15 minutes for anything myself, while there in July I saw a 120 minute wait for test track, and while there a couple of weeks ago (Oct.23-Nov.1) there was a consistent wait of 70-80 minutes for ToT for the entire week--though I hear only one side was open. (I asked when the entire ride would reopen, only to be told it was--which I corrected the CM-Ambassdor at the tip board).

Saw Splash at DL at 150 or 180 minutes in mid May. And the FPs were usually gone for the day by noon or 1:00.

I once stood in line for the Indiana Jones attraction at Disneyland for 3+ hours, but it was spring break time, and it was brand spanking new.

I've been in line for Splash and Space Mountains over 2 hours, easily, probably closer to 3.

Waiting in lines really doesn't bother me that much... it's all part of the theme park experience.

As a kid on trips with family before Fastpass, we waited 2 hours for Splash Mountain (This was the first summer it opened). I actually like the queue area for Splash (the singing birdhouses!), and have fond memories of waiting. Not that we do it now that we don't have to, though!
I must say waiting an hour at a Disney park WAY beats waiting at a Six Flags or other local park. The clientele is better (less teenagers with tongues down each others throats) and less rude line cutting. At least, that's what I've noticed.

In DL we saw 180 minutes for Splash Mountain. I had to take a photo because I had never seen that long of a wait before.

The longest wait time I've seen has been about 120 minutes, I believe that was for Splash Mountain back in June of 2000. The Fastpass machine wasn't working at that time either.
The longest I've stood in line was 45 minutes and that was for Splash Mountain of the same year. We just visited it much later in the day and it was amazing how quickly that wait dropped!

Our last trip Oct 2-8 we waited 1 hour for Mission Space. Of course this was the day before the big media event on the 9th (the day the park was closing early) so I guess lots were trying to hit it then. We were there about 1130am and fast pass return times were 8pm. However after about a hour the line wait was down to 15 minutes so must have just hit a bad time.

In the last 3 years I think the longest I've waited for anything is about 45 minutes on Rock N' Roller. Other than that we've been fortunate to have FP and good planning! Though this summer I was there with my folks for the first time in 18 years, since I was 12, and had to thank my dad for those years when I was little and we would wait in line for hours for the Autopia because it was one of my favorites!!!

A little under 2 hours for Test Track. That was the first Summer it was open and there was no FastPass back then. Since FastPass, I don't think I've waited more than 30 minutes for anything in the parks.

We waited about 45 minutes to meet Ariel in her grotto Oct 19th. The wait time said 45 minutes also. I wouldn't have waited that long but my 2 nieces wanted to meet her and get her autograph. Well Ariel was the first to sign my DS4's autograph book and she wrote "To Prince Zachary, Ariel." He thought it was the best and when he looks at it he says "prince zachary LOVE Ariel" he added the love to it. Saw TOT wait time of 80 minutes and said no way.

I once waited more than 3 hours for Indiana Jones in DL when it first opened.

For existing rides, I once waited two hours for Pirates of the Caribbean. Now I use a touring plan, and balk at anything over 30 minutes.

I think 80 minutes was the longest I saw 3 years ago and it was for Winnie the Pooh ride, which we fast-passed.

Before the fast pass system, I once waited around 1.5 hours for splash mountain around July 4th.
