DFB…I don’t know where you are getting your infromation, But it is not correct. Sarah I understand you are not in the Parks everyday. But whomever is giving you infromation is feeding you a line.
I just returned today 12=21-21 after a week at WDW. I assure you that NEVER in that time was any of the Major attractions less than 85 minutes wait time. I have NEVER seen crowds as large as they were last week. Small world was a low at 25 minutes. Peter Pan stayed around 85-90. Splash, Big Thunder Space all stayed over 85 while Seven Dwarfs ran the 120 range.
That was just the times posted on the My Disney app. Real times ran much longer. Lightning Lane users might get those times, but the stand by times were pure hell. Example was that Jingle Cruise states 80 minutes, We waited in the Stand by line for more than 2 hours. Lines streached on and on and with one cast member holding the :line starts here sign, there were several breaks for other movement and attractions.
This was the normal in all of the parks, lines so long it was difficult at best to know where the line ended and where you could enter the line. ALL of the Parks wre way over crowded. The biggest crowds I have EVER seen at WDW. Disney says the number of huests is limited. They LIED
