Definitely not "in the know" but there is a thread over at TouringPlans about the crowd levels and predictions. It has been noted over the last week or two that Disney seems to be inflating the AK wait times they are showing far beyond what they really are. The TouringPlans folks, in order to try and get some accurate numbers, hired people to wait in lines at AK and were finding some major discrepancies.
Here are some samples that Len posted about a week ago:
Flight of Passage:
- Posted 190 at 4:45, actual 81
- Posted 110 at 6:05, actual 78
Na’Vi River Journey:
- Posted 45 at 8:26, actual 21
- Posted 50 at 9:00, actual 28
- Posted 90 at 2:28, actual 66
- Posted 60 at 6:25, actual 47
- Posted 45 at 7:25, actual 20
I have no idea if Disney was still doing this over the holiday weekend, but it would be interesting to know if the line was ever truly 6 hours.
