We’re coming off a holiday weekend in Disney World!
Tower of Terror
Wait times have been on the rise for the last week. We anticipated this increase, and sure enough, the parks have been pretty crowded all weekend! Let’s take a look at what it was like today.
Magic Kingdom
As we headed into Magic Kingdom today, the crowds didn’t seem too bad on Main Street, U.S.A. It was definitely worse over the weekend!

But in Frontierland, the crowds picked up. We saw a long line to get into Frontier Trading Post…

Frontierland Crowds
Splash Mountain was at a 95-minute wait when we walked by! That’s more than twice its average wait time last week.

In Fantasyland, it didn’t get any quieter. Crowds funneled through the tight walkway between “it’s a small world” and Peter Pan’s Flight.

The wait for “it’s a small world” was back by the Tangled restrooms!

Fantasyland Crowds
We were expecting these higher crowds this weekend into today, and they delivered!

Animal Kingdom
There was a steady stream of guests heading into Disney’s Animal Kingdom this morning.

However, once inside the park, it was clear that things were a lot calmer. There was plenty of open space to walk around the Tree of Life.

Wait times were still long, though! The line for Expedition Everest stretched all the way back to the still-closed Finding Nemo — The Musical.

Over in Pandora, tape directed the line for Pongu Pongu…

Guests maintained their distance on the designated markers as they waited.

Hollywood Studios
Disney’s Hollywood Studios also seemed quieter compared to Magic Kingdom. On Sunset Blvd, much of the street remained wide open.

However, there was a line for ice cream at Hollywood Scoops that stretched a long way down the sidewalk.

Wait times were higher than normal, but still not too bad. At around 5PM, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway had a 35-minute wait…

Walking through Toy Story Land definitely felt a little congested!
