The wait is over. Holiday crowds have made their exit from Disney World!

We’ve seen decorations come down and new merchandise replace the festive finds on the shelves, but one of the biggest things that has changed is the crowds. Overall it felt less crowded on a day-to-day basis this week, even though Park Passes were selling out for Annual Passholders on certain days. So what does this mean for the wait times? Well, let’s just say we think you’re going to like the news!

Below, we will show you the average wait times from every attraction in Disney World over the past week. You’ll see that wait times took a major dip compared to last week, the first week of January. See for yourself!

Magic Kingdom

Starting in Magic Kingdom, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train had the longest average wait time of 80 minutes. Last week, the average wait time was 109 minutes, so the average has decreased significantly since then.

Next, Peter Pan’s Flight averaged 64 minutes, Space Mountain averaged 55 minutes, Jingle Cruise averaged 48 minutes, and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and Haunted Mansion at 42 minutes. Average wait times held Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin and Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh at 33 minutes, Enchanted Tales with Belle at 30 minutes, Astro Orbiter at 29 minutes, followed by Pirates of the Caribbean at 28 minutes.
