Recent wait times for Expedition Everest

[micci41]

We will be arriving in Orlando at 10:30am and plan on heading over to AK ASAP. Just wondering what the typical wait times for EE has been lately.

45 minutes at 11:30 on Sat., 5/13. Fast passes were gone at noon.

Good question!
Here's a related one......
What kind of lines are you seeing for EE during the evening extra magic hours?

We will be arriving around 7pm on a Monday evening (June 12th). So it will be EMH for AK. We plan to check in and head over to AK to hit EE and a few other things. Do you think we will be able to get on EE without too much trouble?
Thanks,

We got to the AK park at 9:30 am headed over to EE and waited 10min. then got off and rode it again and it was like 20min at most and it was around 10 am, the line didnt seem to get long till around 11:00am and we were there on Sat. May 20.

We got to AK a few minutes after the park opened last Thursday and only had about a 10 minute wait for EE. By noon, we had done EE, the Safari ride, Dinosuar, Primeval whirl and the jugle trek walk-through. Depending on the length of your stay, I would recommend that you get to the park early, as the crowds just grow and grow as the day goes on.

we were there on 5/18.......we arrived at ak about 1, got a fastpass with return time of 3:30......got in the standby line with posted wait of 60 minutes but we were on the ride in 20.......after our fastpass we got in the standby line again with a posted wait of 75 minutes and were on in approx 30 min....so we were able to ride 3 times in approx 3 hours.

On May 11th we got the EE late at about 11am... Ran over to get Fast Passes and received a time of 1:20pm. At that time it was a 40min Standby wait.

At 1:25pm we got another fast pass for EE for 3:50pm, the park was not busy at all.

Monday, May 15 at 3:30 the wait said 50 minutes and it was accurate. No fast passes were left. All rides at MK said 20 minute wait and we never waited more than 5-10 minutes.

was there sat. may 20th rode 3 times in 20 minutes in single rider line between 10:30 and 11:00

I'm glad to hear this ride isn't as bad as Test Track and Soarin. Even when we go in January the line for Soarin is ridiculous and fastpasses are gone extremely early. So hopefully we can go to AK early in the morning and not even need a fastpass...I'm so excited for Expedition Everest!!

5/3 the posted wait time was 30 min and we got on in about 20. 5/19 the single rider line we were on and off in about 15 minutes at 230 in the afternoon. The fast passes were for 330 to 4 at that time.

Thank you so much for your replies. We are counting down the days.

We were there on Tuesday, May 16th. We arrived around 8:45am, emh. DH ran for fastpasses for EE (we rode around 9:30-10ish), while the rest of us met up with him at Kilimanjaro Safari. By 1pm, we were enjoying a leisurely lunch with fastpasses for Kali River Rapids. We got totally soaked! Good think it was very warm that day.

Keep in mind that early-mid May is traditionally a little slower than usual in WDW, but after this weekend the Summer crowds will hit heavy! I bet the waits will expand.

I was there last Wed for evening EMH and the standby wait times were posted at 20 minutes, but I only waited about 10 minutes each time. Went on it 3 times that night. I didn't try to go on it any other time that week.
