magic closed dec 31

I am at Epcot and they have stopped all people from going to magic kingdom on the monorail. They are in phase 3 as of 1050 am

Thanks for the update - good luck!

Good luck is right! I just saw on my Lines app that Seas with Nemo is at 90 minutes! WOW. Soarin is at 240. So glad I am not there.

Spaceship earth states. 90 minutes but the line starts at the pin station. Going to Ellen because only 20 minutes

Nemo is 90 minutes??? Wowser.... Epcot must be hopping today... Only MK is at phase closing??? Epcot isn't???

Ya! Another one that's crazy is Test Track single rider line is 100 minutes! 220 for stand by and FP is already gone.

Those wait times for Epcot are about what they were last year on New Year's Eve. I think the reason that you see such long wait times at Epcot on New Year's Eve compared to the other parks is because there are fewer rides at Epcot.

Ya and I think the reason it usually doesn't phase close is just because of sheer size and high capacity. It definitely handles crowds better then any other park at WDW. Not for wait times, but space in the actual park.

As much as I love DIsney I will never be caught dead there during Christmas or New Years. I will continue going with my seasonal pass on long weekends or pull the kids out of school for a day or two to make a long weekend.

I'll take hot and steamy in September any day. Hard to see the magic when there are 80000 people in front of you. Happy new year!

100 minutes for single rider.. OK, no one can PAY me enough to ever go to WDW this time of year.. No way LOL...

And single rider is the only way I will wait for TT since the stand by queue is usually always a long wait and FPs, if not gotten early in the day, typically have a late return time... I used single rider in October and I maybe waited 5 minutes while the Stand By was an hour and FP returns were very late in the day...

This makes me wish they had webcams set up just to watch the crowds. Id probably pay a fee to watch.

You would have enjoyed the flash mob at DHS then....:lookaroun

Well, my son and I gave up the ghost on WDW for New Year's Eve. We have a few items to pick up for tonight, and the crowds have just gotten too akin to dead fish in a can.

There is a site I frequent where the members do provide webcams of the resort, but unless someone is streaming from their smartphone in the park, you'll only get views from their resort room... You probably already know the site anyway...
