Sounds like they're cracking down! YAY!

How did they cut in line though, was it a complete push through the line, duck under a rope type thing or were they trying to join someone else in line ahead of them?

I'd love to hear the details about this!

I have personally seen teenagers cut through and say they are with a group up ahead when they do not! Sooo....when they try to get by me I ask them to point out their group and call to them. 9 times out of 10, they are, in fact, trying to get to their family but I have stopped one trio of girls. They knew that I knew....and left grumbling!

What gets me is the PARENTS that do this with their little kids! On Thursday a dad cut under the rope/chain at Autopia with 2 young (6 & 8-ish) kids and they did NOT join up with mom or anyone else. I SO wanted to ask him "what are you teaching your kids?!" but wasn't near enough to do it. That same day I was a tthe Jedi training thingy (grandson was hoping to get choose) and one mom just pushed her kid out there (maybe 5 yrs old?) and said "just go; just go! They'll let you in".
It annoyed me more that they are teaching their kids to cheat/lie to get what they want way more than just the cutting in line.

I'm glad to hear that! DH and I try not to get too aggravated with people like that but sometimes you encounter it far too often! Those people need to realize that it's not just THEIR vacation: other people are on vacation as well and are trying to have memorable experiences too. Yay for that CM!

Glad to hear this. I don't get people "catching up" with others. Everyone should get in line at the same time, if someone need restroom break do it before the rest get in line. I feel that the other party should come back in line if they so badly wish to ride with these people.

I have to say, I have seen instances where people ahead of us have asked us to move ahead of them so they can join up with people who are behind us - there are plenty of people you meet in line who are very much trying to be fair. I saw another family in line, where the father took the youngest to the washroom and she stood aside with her child and let others pass her so he could catch up to where he left in line, not where she would have been without him.

There are some rotten apples for sure but there are also some pretty respectful people you meet.

So if we are in line for 45 minutes and my 6 year old son has to use the bathroom, what should I do? Make my whole family get out of line? Or maybe me and my son should just start all over in line. You either don't have kids or never took them to a theme park with long lines with their little bladders.
I tell people on my way out of line along withy the CM at the entrance, then I remind them on my way back in, if you are polite people will be polite back. These "jumpers" are the exception, so please don't lump parents and kids in with them.

 

[Gisele]

What she said. Now I don't have any kids, but man if I gotta go, I gotta go.
I don't expect somebody to wait in the line unless they have to, want to, or need to, so as to have their party catch up with them when someone needed to use the restroom, especially with thier young children.

I have always felt there is a difference in a parent & child (or single adult) trying to catch up to their group than a group trying to catch up to their single person holding the spot.

On our last trip DS had just mastered potty training, so there were several occurrences where we immediately had to leave the line to go potty. Plus it was during a heat wave in Sept, so he was drinking a lot of water. Any time we had to leave a line, DH and DD would stay in line, DS and I would go to the potty and then return to the line and ask a CM what we should do. Most of the time they would bring DS and I up to the loading area where we would wait for our family to catch up to us and then get on the ride with them. Every CM we encountered was very helpful, plus DH is tall and easy to spot in line. If we weren't back from the potty before they got to the loading area, they would wait for us. So, we never had to cut in line or go through the line to catch up. So, I would suggest that if you see anyone trying to "catch up" to their family, just tell them to speak to a CM and they will tell them the right way to go about it. This will weed out the non-legit line jumpers.

Agreed!

That's a very good way to go about it Ruby.
