Should Disney change their wait times sign?

[DVCcurious]

I can't be the only one who thought "205" mean two hours and 5 minutes.

I think Disney should change their signage to make it much more clear how long the wait is.

The sign should be "X hours XX minutes" instead of "XXX minutes".

I find it pretty clear. It clearly says minutes after the number...

I agree...the signs are clear. I don’t think that most people think that 205 minutes means 2 hours and 5 minutes.

Agreed. I've honestly never thought that, nor have I traveled with someone who's thought that. There's clearly not a ":" between the "2" and the "05"

205 anything, whether minutes or 2 hours, means i won't be going anywhere near it. That's all the clarity I need

OK... just admit you were hanging out at Nomad Lounge before you queued up for FoP..

Its pretty clear and if they changed the signs the way you want you just know someone in Disney would suggest a ticket price increase to pay for all of those improvements.

I'm just curious what you thought 180 minutes meant. 1 hour....80 minutes?

Those waits are the worst because you never seem to get there...it just restarts inexplicably at 1 hour 59 minutes

 

[SaintsManiac]

No

 

[jhoannam]

I find them annoying too, I’m pretty good at doing math in my head but I just wish it was in hours and minutes.

Principal Skinner: "Not only are the trains now running on time, they're running on metric time. Remember this moment people, 80 past 2 on April 47th, it's the dawn of an enlightened Springfield."

Facts

 

[publix subs]

it's actually 205 DisneyMinutes which could range anywhere between 200-320 real actual minutes.

I think most people understand that it is in minutes as that is what the signs state. It is just like how they tell you how long a movie is -- they would not mention a movie being 1 hour and 37 minutes - it would say 97 minutes. Leaving it to us to figure out how many hours it is. Honestly, if the wait time is more than 30 minutes i wouldn't bother with the ride. So seeing a sign that says 205 -- i would have to be pretty nuts to get in that line. Nothing is worth that kind of a wait (especially with kids who are going to either be hungry, tired, bored or have to go to the bathroom)

If your kids are like mine, in 205 minutes it would be all of the above!

If it's enough minuets that I have to stop and think, what is that in hours and minuets I don't get in the line.

 

[Harlaxton]

Easiest way to combat this 'problem' is look at the sign and if it's any number bigger than 60, nope the heck out of there and start mashing/refreshing your phone for a Fast Pass for something else.

You can’t be serious?

Never thought that, and no, I don't agree. Stated minutes is pretty darned clear.
