There is a reason other than Volcano Bay no park has tried that. It doesn't work. IMO FP has made guests feel entitled for short waits.

It sounds like demand is leveling off.
Disney, please open the standby!!!!!!!

Do I want to prohibit people from what our group did....not sure where that comes from considering 1) I have said I WANT virtual que instead of static line, and 2) what we did was utilize the virtual que....which is what I am saying should happen on rides.
We were blocked from getting another VQ for the 1pm CR because we rode in the am.
I guess they changed this.........
I still find it maddening that we can't just get in line and decide for ourselves if the wait is worth it.
Maddening........given the cost of everything.....

Genie garbage

How do you manage at Universal where standby is the norm for most. Unless you pay a high price or stay at top hotel.
There are only a few express pass users at uni making the standby times reasonable.....most of our trips
Another issue since TT is down.....good luck getting a VQ for CR.
7am gone 2seconds
1am gone in 2.5 seconds.....
What's left.......$$$$
Coincidence?
C'mon people if these stats don't tell the true story, what does........
It's not even the busy time yet....

For most people, waiting in line for 4 hours is not a viable choice. And that line is never going to be 30 minutes. So a choice without a good option is not a real choice, and the same people would be back here hollering about nonsense and conspiracies. And no, Disney is not a government; they have no obligation to offer choice.

If you don't want to wait in 4 hour lines than buy an ILL.

The last time I saw an actual 4 hour wait at a Disney park was the last day of splash at Disneyland.
Cosmic Rewind would not have a 4 hour wait. Its popularity would most likely be similar to Remy’s adventure and they have similar ride capacity.

I saw a 4 hour wait on Monday at hs. Smugglers run was a 220 minute wait and rise was 180 minutes.

Rise had a maximum of 110 on Monday - and was below 100 minutes for the entire day except for the one spike (110 was at 9:20 am)
Smugglers did hit 220 - im guessing they were down a theatre because it only spiked to 220 for a short time.
1:15 - 100 minutes
2:16 - 220
3:16 - 70
Where did you find those stats.......
I'd be interested in digging up that kind of info......
Disney nerd alert.
Smugglers is usually walk on 1 hour or so close to close.
Amazing theming.....but ok ride.
Meh

Shouldn’t the one who would have to wait decide if it’s too messy and massive?
Can’t have that, can we.

It's funny cause other parks I go to either close the line early and also let everyone on the queue ride.

Pretty sure the indoor for rise only holds about 40 minutes - the rest is a “massive messy outdoor queue”
Well there are 2 solutions. The historic way, which is to let people join the line until park closing, which is how it works at the vast majority of attractions in Disney parks, but if there is a reason you don’t want to do that, you can close the line at another posted time, like 1 hour prior to park closing.
