As I said before don’t let the lack of phase closings fool you into thinking attendance is down this holiday season.
Some records have already been beaten.

Are crowds just more distributed, or are they being looser with the phased closings?
I may be wrong but I think it's the latter.
It might be a revolving door thing. With nothing to do in MK all day long except to be in line for at most four rides, people leave. And more enter.
It's self-deportation!

Boy, that was fast!
And here are some wait times according to a backup source (my app still doesn't work):
- Soarin' Around the World has the highest wait at 190 minutes
- Splash and Space Mountain have 180 minute waits.
- Peter Pan and Flight of Passage are 155 minute waits
- Slinky Dog Dash and Frozen Ever After are 120 minute waits
- 60 minute wait for Figment-WAIT, WHAT?
- 50 minutes for Philharmagic
- Alien Swirling Saucers actually has a pretty low wait time at 50 minutes! Surprising!
- Lowest wait not counting shows is 25 minutes for Dinosaur.

New Construction Confirmed!
Wall Street can understand this concept... they call it CHURN.

Spaceship Earth just hit 110 minutes now! Yup, almost two hours!
And over at our rival Universal...
This is hilarious because none of the other wait times are as bad as this. In fact, Forbidden Journey is 45 while Gringotts is an hour. Also, Skull Island's 70 minutes, but that's a new ride, so I can understand that. But 110 minutes for a half-decade old ride?

And how do you explain a much older ride such as Space Mountain?

A few of my very good CM friends are working 12 hour plus shifts today. I worked NYE last year and had a 14 hour shift.
I believe today is following what has become a trend at WDW over the past 4 to 5 years: No phased closings during the week from Christmas to New Year's, except for NYE at Magic Kingdom.
