Weather Keeps Crowds Low – Disney World wait times for Saturday, March 6, 2021

Clouds and the threat of rain kept crowds away from the Disney parks this morning. As a result, posted wait times were moderate throughout Walt Disney World, with only EPCOT’s wait times barely edging up into the top half of the past month’s averages.  Even then, the actual wait times we got at EPCOT were only about 60% of the posted wait, so the posted waits were slightly overstated.

We counted 493 of 500 guests (98%) in Hollywood Studios wearing masks according to Disney’s guidelines. And we’ve got 169 actual wait times so far today from our fabulous Lines community!  Let’s do the rest of the numbers!

Magic Kingdom Wait Times

Pirates of the Caribbean had an average wait time today of 49 minutes. Its 7-day average is 52 minutes, so today ranks #5 for this week. Its 30-day average is 54 minutes, so today ranks #20 for the past month. Its 365-day average is 42 minutes, so today ranks #79 for the past year. We received 5 actual wait times today, and the actual wait averaged 78% of the posted wait time.
