Single rider lines

[jeforman]

Trying to plan my solo trip in May and was wondering how the single rider lines at test track and smuggler's run are. If the regular line is 60 minutes, what can I expect in the single rider line?
Thanks

Not sure about Smuggler's Run but at Test Track I would say expect up to a 15 minute wait. 2 weeks ago it was a posted 50 minute wait and I waited 30 seconds the first time and 6 minutes the second time. Other times I have waited 3-5 minutes and sometimes 15 minutes.

Test Track single rider line is AMAZING! Usually less than 10 minutes. I haven’t done Falcon single rider yet but I’ve heard it’s very very fast (it is at Disneyland)

Smuggler‘s Run single rider line is super quick. There“s never more than 3 people in front of you. You don’t do the pre show, and 99/100 times you end up as an Engineer. When you go through the single rider line they’ll be an option to go straight/right or a very sharp left hand turn. Always go left.

 

[disneylover102]

Agreed about the left turn! I’ve done it many times at Disneyland where I believe it’s exactly the same. Nobody ever goes left because they don’t realize it’s an option!

How about the RnRC single rider line? I've never done it before, and recently read it's notorious for taking a long time.

We have encountered waits in the SR line almost as long as the SB line.

When we were there 2 weeks ago, they were not offering SR on RnRC.

RnRC & Test Track’s single rider line can sometimes be LONGER than the actual ride

Everest & Smugglers I’d say 5-20 mins depending on how busy things are

Both fantastic, at least usually. Smuggler's run is 0 to 10 minutes on a crowded day and frequently a walk on, and Test track is 5 to 20 depending on the crowd.

For Smuggler's Run, there are stairs to both the left and right after you head down the line. Use both.

Most of the time, the RNR single rider is by far the worst. However, shortly before closing time, it's a breeze. Even though the standby line is much shorter than usual at that time, the single rider is even quicker -- a walk on, or under ten minutes. You skip the pre-show, for one thing.

I also love the Everest single rider line. It's always a short wait. As for Test Track, it's usually great. But one time, we waited maybe 35 minutes (the standby wait time was posted at 60 min. or more). I think that was our longest ever wait in single rider.

If you want to be the pilot on MF one time, it's worth getting in the standby line early in the day or near closing time. I do recommend it; the pilot seat is the most fun.

SR is very fast for Millenium Falcon but you're all but guaranteed to get Engineer.

Yah, but I think if you are solo in the S/B line they seem to still be inclined to put you in the back (Engineer). It is just best to be a group of two and hope for the best.

It's only worth it if the single rider is very short and the normal queue is well out the front.

One of the reasons tts single rider is so fast is that many groups are multiples of 2, and tt seats 3 per row.

So for rnr and everest, since the ride seats in twos, you can wait quite a bit.

Everest is usually a time saver because people don't know it exists, while rnr is right at the main entrance.

When we were there a week ago, SRL was longer than the SB queue. The SB queue was listed as 60 minutes (actually less than 30) and the SRL never moved while we were standing next to it in SB. I watched an older gentleman go through SRL while we were still outside the building on the ground level. When we were given our lane assignment, he was still halfway back the SRL. He would have been on near in time to us had he chosen SB.

Another thing that we found surprising was the lack of LL guests. A few, but certainly not many while we were queued. DHS was crazy CRAZY busy last Friday.

I used a LL pass for SR as a solo person and asked to be a pilot and was denied. I probably will use single rider from now on.

I've found this to be true as well. They usually start with a bigger group and fill it from front to back, so if you're a pair or solo in the standby line you probably won't get Pilot.

Using the single rider line, I usually end up as gunner. Most groups usually have someone who wants to do as little as possible, so I offer to switch.
