Every week, we report the average Disney World wait times in every park so that you can be prepared for your next trip to Orlando!
Disney World wait times have a reputation for being, well, unpredictable. Sure, we can look at past data to get an estimate of the crowd levels in Disney World, but you never know what may happen from year to year. So how did Disney’s wait times hold up as January marched on? Well, they went UP! For example, waits for Millennium Falcon Smugglers Run in Galaxy’s Edge – which hasn’t even gotten it’s massive Mandalorian & Grogu update yet – DOUBLED this week, with its average wait time almost reaching an hour.
Take a look at this week’s average wait times for proof! This is everything you need to know about the average wait times in Disney World over the past seven days. There are very few waits over an hour, which is incredible. As January is in full swing, is this one of the best times to visit the parks? It just might be — but we’ll let you decide!
