Has it ever occurred to you how long you spend waiting for things in Disney World?
Waiting for transportation, waiting to scan into the parks, waiting for food, waiting to check out your merchandise, waiting for the bathroom, and (probably the most notable) waiting in line for rides. It can take up a LOT of your day, especially if you’re at the parks when they’re really busy. So, will you have to prepare yourself to wait in long lines at Disney World soon? Let’s take a look at the wait times from this past week to find out!
