Although not as busy as the weekends, this week has been pretty busy with Spring Break happening in many parts of the country. EPCOT, Magic Kingdom, and Animal Kingdom all had average posted wait times in the top 10 of the past 30 days. Disney’s Hollywood Studios has implemented some procedures to increase capacity at certain attractions and it shows with its average posted wait times being towards the bottom of the past 30 days. At EPCOT, we observed 487 out of 500 guests (97%) wearing their masks in accordance with Disney’s guidelines.
