My husband is not a fan of lines. AT. ALL (he will literally sit on a bench and people watch and sit out rides w/ a long line). How long does it take to work through the initial lines to get into the park. He balked last time we arrived to get into DL and the entry lines were back past the midway point of the plaza.
Yes, I know, arrive 30-45 mins before gates open, but have a large party, five day hoppers, small kids and on Sunday, 4/22, we aren't going to get to the DL gate at 7:15 for a 8am opening (or utilize EE at DCA at 7am either). This is our first full day and I can't burn everyone out- they really want a leisurely pace (would be different if it were just me!).
Is there a sweet spot where entry lines die down, but the local crowds have not arrived? 8:30am? 9:00am? I would imagine things get worse before they get better?
Thank you!
