What's the longest you are willing to wait in line for any attraction?

[WDWOswald]

Just curious what the longest you are willing to wait in line for any attraction would be? For me, I really don't want to wait longer than a half hour for literally any ride. I might make an exception for ratatouille because it's new and we have never done it. However, I feel like this "30 minute rule" might mean there will be hours of time at the park where we literally have nothing to do but wait for our next Genie selection to be available.

20-30 minutes is our max. Leaning more towards 20.

MAYBE 45 for a new ride. It’s never happened but I would be willing to wait for guardians or tron if it came down to it for my first time riding.

We do midday breaks when ride wait times are highest or we take that time to do shows, ADR or watch a parade.

30 minutes feels about right.

I'll probably get to the parks an hour or two early to ride Guardians and TRON once each when they open, but I wouldn't do anything like that every trip. I've ridden Rise of the Resistance three times and I'm probably done with it until wait times get down to a reasonable level.

 

[holden]

I'd do 30 minutes max.

Agree with 30, but 45 for something new or that my kids *really wanted to do.

I am willing to wait about 45 minutes for a ride or attraction. BUT, I am used to going at really busy times which makes a 20 minute wait to be very short!

 

[Westerner]

max 30 minutes generally, but I'd go as high as 60 for FoP and 90 for RotR.

 

[reddog21]

30 minutes unless it's a new ride then probably 45

Depends on the attraction, the day, my mood and what else I want to do. I have waited up to a hour many times. I'm not ride centric, I go often and don't go to see how many rides I can ride. We started going long before there was fast pass so waiting in line was what you did. If it's a super hot day and the line is all out in the sun, Slinky Dog I'm looking at you, I probably wouldn't wait more than 45 min. but I wouldn't say I'd never wait longer for it. Some times I'm just in a mood to ride one or two rides and maybe just walk around the park and look at the details so standing in line isn't a big deal. I actually like some of the lines, I spend my time in the line at ToT making up stories (either out loud if my son is with me or in my head if I'm solo) about the hotel and gardens and the people.

45 minutes tops.

 

[Brett Wyman]

Around 45 minutes for E tickets.

 

[prestoncaldwell]

I can tolerate two hours. DW is good for 45 minutes so that's our limit.

I am able to use DAS and don't have children, but I have felt comfortable waiting standby for up to an hour by myself or with other adults depending on the conditions. I was reminiscing to my DH last night that 13 years ago as a college student I left my family and waited 45 minutes by myself just to meet Rapunzel and Flynn Rider. I'll read on my phone, people watch, or more recently play the Play Disney Parks app games (these are especially fun in Galaxy's Edge). I have always thoroughly enjoyed the queue space and can get lost in the details especially of the newer ones, so I always feel like I miss some of the Disney Parks magic when I use LL entries. But to repeat, I don't have children, so I'm sure my perspective would change if I had little ones to keep preoccupied.

20 to 25 minutes.

 

[KittyKitty]

Get there very early to wait 1 hour. New ride, even longer.

 

[Jabroniville]

Not more than an hour except in crazy circumstances. At Tokyo Disneyland that was ALL the rides so I made exceptions in some cases (even Space Mountain early in the morning).

Typically anything over 40 minutes I will FastPass or wait. I think the only thing I routinely waited for longer on at Disney World was "Frozen Ever After", which was my favorite thing (and something I'd never ridden before in 2019). This past vacation since I'd done it already I wasn't as willing to do that. I pretty well never waited over 30 minutes for anything.
