Thanks for all your work!

I wonder what changed 6/19-6/23 that caused the 1pm drop to only be open for 3 to 8 minutes each day, vs. over an hour in the weeks before and after? That much difference in crowd level seem unlikely.

7am drop lasted for 18.524 secs.
Friday 7am Drop Average: 5.1s -> 7.0s (+1.9s)

BG's 1-10 called at 8:55am as part of the initial wave.
So I know for the 1PM drop you have to be in the park to enter the VQ. For the 7AM drop, can you be anywhere and get a VQ as long as you have a MK park reservation? For example, our first day we have an early flight out of Atlanta. We have a MK park reservation that day and I was wondering can I get the VQ at 7AM while I am in the Atlanta airport?

Yes that’s correct, you can get a BG anywhere in the world as long as you have valid park admission and a park pass reservation. For 1PM, you just need to have scanned into the park before 1PM and you can get a BG. I was able to scan into Magic Kingdom, go to Steakhouse 71 for a 12:45 lunch and I got a BG at the restaurant.
