ok...here is a question.

How long is too long on queue lines for you?

For every ride we have different wait times. For example: Star Tours we are willing to stand there for an hour...hour and a half. Same with muppets and Soarin' (although we've always been lucky with fastpasses on that one) We are also willing to wait 45 minutes to an hour on Jungle Cruise or Pirates. 45 minutes for Haunted mansion. But we will not do a wait line longer than 15 minutes for Stitch, Snow White or Living with the Land. But for every ride we do have a limit. ::MickeyMo

Anyone else? What is your wait time limit?
 
I would say in general, we will not wait much more than 30 minutes. We know when to ride the bigger rides, so we can pretty much say, we never wait much more than that.
 
Our limit is generally 30 minutes. It depends on the ride and whether Fastpass is available.
 
20-30 minutes max. I will never wait more than that for a ride. That is why we hit the parks at rope drop, have a good touring plan and use fastpass.
 

15-20, preferably 15, but I did the college program so I've been on everything a million times, plus my family took me to disney 15ish times in my life. We always went in September or May, so I was used to those wait times to begin with.

If I'm visiting with people who haven't been to Disney in awhile, I'll wait longer. But my patience is VERY low when it comes to queues now, I just avoid busy days.
 
In general, about 30 min, give or take...maybe 40-45 min for bigger rides and depending on my mood.
 
20 minutes or less. Thats why we go in October :thumbsup2 so far it been a good time of the year for us.
 
I agree with the 30 minute time limit. We usually go at Thanksgiving so during the busy part of the week, we may wait 45 minutes depending on the ride, but no more than that. We make sure we go to the parks early enough not to have to wait on long lines.
 
Definitely only 20 to 30 minutes is our patience level. We found even in the heat of the day, when the parks were most crowded, that we didn't need to wait more than 30 minutes for anything this past week.

I am still so surprised that people still don't understand the concept of or how to use FP. Some folks just shut down at the explanation and don't even take the time during their long, hot waits to read about it in the printed guide maps.

I'd wait up to one hour for a ride that didn't offer Fastpass and was something I'd never done. For example, the Finding Nemo subs at Disneyland.

Otherwise, it's 20 minutes, tops.
 
obviously depends on the time of year, during busier times, nothing more than 60 minutes, and it then really comes down to the attraction.

off-season, anything more than 30 minutes and I am ready to skip it and move on..
 
We went Easter week last time. The line for Soarin's fastpass was 30 minutes! But the standby line was 3 hours. :scared1:

So for some of you who have already answered and for those who haven't yet...Does your love of that ride help decide?

For the most part we will walk by, but there are a select few rides that we are willing to do the longer wait time on. Of course, :lmao: we've only gone down during spring break months so maybe that's part of it.

I don't care if it's Soarin or Small World, I'm not waiting more than 20 minutes, MAYBE 30 for Soarin.

Personally, I would never go Easter week. My family avoided holidays at WDW like the plague, and I've come to love the off season. I guess it spoiled me. Working there too, and living down there and having the parks 10 minutes away, I can't justify waiting.

I don't like going when it's busy. It's not worth the heat, the angry, frustrated guests, the crowds, the wait. It's stressful to me.
 
My max is also around 30 minutes. There are too many other attractions to see and things to do instead of spending 45+ minutes in line for one attraction. Just go back and FP it for a different time.
