Memorial weekend crowds

[Tim_4]

Cars are being turned away at DHS, or they were at 3:00 when I left. I don't think the park is at capacity, but the lot is. DAK lot looked full as well, but I didn't see if cars were being sent away.

Also, I don't think they collected a penny in parking fees at Studios today. Cars were being waved through to prevent traffic backup.

Interesting. I always thought the quicker people could get to the parks the more likely they'll be to spend money so even though parking fees bring in a lot of money, if they could get there faster who knows or even provide more monorail peoplemover type transportation throughout the resort....the way I see it people aren't spending money on busses or in their car

Holiday Weekend + Star Wars Weekend = Very Full Studios

Plus people in town for 24hr event. Always thought it was surprising to happen on a holiday weekend

I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing Disney do this type of event each quarter instead of once a year. Who knows

Studios parking is back open again

Took about 45 minutes to drive from marketplace to Boardwalk earlier tonight... And traffic in the other direction was even worse... Never been here this time of year but it's insane...

MK was busy last night. Got there around 6:45. For as many people leaving there were more people entering. Played a round of Sorcerers and everywhere was pretty crowded. Left shortly after and more people were still entering the park.

I was there all weekend and wait times were legitimately insane for everything.
Journey Under The Sea was 180 minutes this afternoon.
But it was still a super fun weekend!

It was crazy at DHS today I could not believe how busy it was. Only had time to do 5 rides today. The fast pass lines were longer than the stand by lines most of the time that I saw. That made the stand by lines miserable.

...and that's even when they use the parking garage behind Animation for cast.

DHS had 47k and some change on Sunday

Epcot and MK were not as bad as I had expected.

DHS had 47k and some change on Sunday

Was one of the 47k on Sunday, place was packed 110 minutes for both rockin roller coaster and tower of terror, toy story at 150 minutes the whole day, star tours was at over an hour most of the day(we luckily only waited 20 minutes for it) even the voyage of the little mermaid show was an hour wait. We ended up leaving around 7pm and skipping fantasmic until yesterday because we did not want to deal with those crowds any more. Yesterday at DHS was busy but more manageable. Star tours was only at 10 minutes around 8pm and the second showing of fantasmic had a whole section empty

Yup sounds about right... It was packed Sunday then pretty empty on Monday
