What might the rest of HS be like after TSL opens?

[marcar12]

I am wondering what you would guess the rest of HS will be like after TSL opens? I know that right now it is only a prediction, but I am thinking that it might be an educated guess based on what AK was like after Pandora opened. Was the rest of the park super busy and packed because more people were drawn there due to Pandora? Or were other areas slower/lines shorter because so many people were in line for FoP? Just curious what people's experiences have been in the OTHER parts of a park when a new section opened? Thanks for your input!

I think you will see a lot more people in the park, however, there really isn't a ride like Flights of Passage that people will what 3-4 hours to ride. My guess is it means lines for other rides will be longer than in the past as people will be "done" with Toy Story land quicker than they have been in Pandora. Just my humble opinion

Easywdw has a recent blog showing that 5 main rides in AK had longer average wait times in January


I imagine more guests will add a DHS day after complaining how it has barely been a “1/2 day” park. (Which used to be a common AK complaint)

For shorter wait times, I think you have to wait for Star Wars Land to open. Between the two new lands and the new Mickey Railway ride, everything else should have relatively short wait times, at least for the first couple hours after rope drop. Then the contrarian strategy will be to go to everywhere else but the new goodies, and just have fast passes later for the new rides.
