Wait Time Boiling Point: What's Your Limit

i've done the longer than 40 minute wait before but it was either before fp or before i knew how to use them. waiting in main line for sorin makes me feel claustraphobic so even a 10 minute wait would feel like forever. i max out at 30 minutes otherwise.

Depends if the queue is air-conditioned or not! No, really (kinda). I love the Space Mountain queue (loved it more before the renovation, when you could look up into the dome) and am happy to spend 40-60 mins in there. But the unthemed, un-air conditioned switchback at Rock n Roller Coaster? No thanks. I'll give that one 20 mins.

The slowest time I have ever been was the 1st week in March... I missed the SB rush and while it was certainly busy, mostly everything was 30 and under (with the exception of TSM).

I also went in May of this year... and that was rough, super busy.

I'd love to experience the world in say Mid September, that would be amazing.

What part of MAY did you go in? We are going May 13-19 and from what I understood it was a slightly calm time of the year to visit as long as you didn't go on Memorial Day weekend.

I typically visit off season, and wait in the stand by lines for 30 minutes or less. If it's more, I grab a fast pass. If it's something I really want to ride, and fast passes are gone, I'll wait longer. I've done this for Soarin, Test Track & TSMM - maxing out at around 2 hours for TSMM. I wouldn't regularly wait that long for anything but it had just opened.

I once waited in a splash line for 220 min. line.... I would wait any time for RnRC, ToT, TSMM,Soarin',Test Track, and Expedition: Everest... Lines really don't effect me... ESPECIALLY when they are inside and air conditioned :ROFLOL:

My wife and I go for 7 or 8 days each trip. We can wait in line for 4 hours if we wish. That's the glory in staying so long. Seriously though, we go to WDW in the off seasons so we rarely wait more than 45 minutes in a queue line. The only queue we hate is Toy Story because it's so deceiving. I feel like we're being tricked in this line because it goes on and on and then when you think you're close to getting on the ride, you're guided though another maze and then lead up some stairs...and well... you all know what I'm talking about.:brick:

we went closer to the end of May, 3rd week in... not as bad as the middle of the summer, but certainly very busy.

Depends on the ride, the weather, and if the line is air conditioned or not. We will happily wait a long time for Toy Story Mania (all of us love that ride), but would not likely wait that long for Small World.

As a kid during Easter Break, we would be in line for a couple hours for Space Mountain ... it is what it is ... truth be told, if you dont like to wait in lines a Theme Park is probably not the place for you to be. :shrug:

The limit depends on the ride in question. I've waited in some very long lines, about 2 hours for TSMM. Waiting that amount of time for that ride is something ill never do again. :brick:

For most rides, my limit is 30 minutes; however, for TSMM, I'll bump it up to 45 minutes.

Although, I remember waiting 90 minutes for Summit Plummet when I was on a high school trip in 96. I still can't believe I waited 90 minutes for a water slide :lol:
