Nemo lines

[labagit]

What are the lines for Nemo generally like these days? Would first thing on a Monday morning be a good time to try for this one, or does it get a rush first thing with a later lull?

I only waited thirty minutes in November. This was around eleven o'clock on a Magic Morning day.

Unfortunately the only experience I had was in January 08 - but we waitied 25 min at around 7:30 at night.

I like that the two responses so far are 30 min. or less.

Weekends will be at least 30 minutes...any weekend.
Weekdays during off season will likely be much less. 10-20 minutes depending on the day and crowds. Summer time, plan on at least 30 minutes. It's still a very popular ride even though the newness has worn off.

Have a great trip.

We were at Disneyland on May 8th and May 9th.
Granted it was a Friday and Saturday, but the lines were over 45 minutes long
all day long.
We got on at 10:30 p.m and the line at that point said 15 minutes, but we waited 20 minutes. When we passed again at 11:30 p.m, the CM said 15 minutes, but the line looked shorter.

Weekdays the last week of April was 45 minutes on average. First thing or last thing of the day seems to give you better odds of a shorter wait.

Thanks for the feedback. At least now we'll know that if it's long we can check back since it's not always like that. We were there last soon after it opened and just chose the experience over the actual ride since the lines were way more than I was willing to spend.

I won't be responding anymore, because I'm going to Disneyland today!!!

It really depends on whether or not it's the hot season. I found the best time as posted above is November or right after New Years. Regardless of the time of the year, if you go first thing when the park opens, as in be in the park early-you shouldn't have issues.

Good luck

My personal experience has shown me that the best times for short(er) Nemo lines are:

1) First thing in the morning (if you are one of the first ones in the park when it opens)

2) During parades (although make sure to time it right because immediately following parades, I've noticed a huge spike in Nemo's line)

3) Late at night (anything within an hour of the park closing usually will be reasonable)

We went on a Thursday with a Magic Morning (we didn't have magic morning; we entered with the cattle call).

It was the first place we headed, along with 100 of our closest friends

We only ended up waiting about 30 minutes, but throughout the day the line was similar. I'd recommend going to get a few fastpasses and making your way over there later in the day rather than trying to get there first.

Getting there with the first wave of regular entry people didn't save us any time, most likely because of the early entry mixed with people like us who wanted to make sure we got on.

Ah, late at night is a sketchy call. Depending on how hot it is during the day, everyone shows up at night. I would be careful with that one. If on the other hand it's "cold" at night, people don't want to wait outside so you won't have to wait long.
