We May Have Found an Unfortunate Side Effect of the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival…😬

Every week, we report the average Disney World wait times in every park so that you can be prepared for your next trip to Orlando!

Grab a snack and let’s talk wait times.

Disney World saw something VERY RARE this week. Flight of Passage did NOT have the highest average wait time at the resort, that title instead went to Slinky Dog Dash. Meanwhile, Jungle Cruise closed for refurbishment and the Lighting Lane Multi Pass continued to impact the resort.

EPCOT Wait Times

The wait times in EPCOT actually increased this week. Was it perhaps due to larger crowds brought in by the International Food & Wine Festival? There are a LOT of dedicated Food & Wine Festival fans out there, so it wouldn’t surprise us if all those (hungry) visitors caused the average wait times to increase this week.

(NOTE: Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind does not currently use a standby queue, so it’s not included here.)

Animal Kingdom Wait Times

Even Animal Kingdom’s Flight of Passage, saw something almost unprecedented this week: Not only was the standby wait time UNDER an hour (granted, it was only by a minute, but still one of the rarest wait time sights in Disney World), but for the first time in ages, Flight of Passage was NOT Walt Disney World’s busiest ride by average wait time! Nature is healing.
