The posted wait is not your real wait
Parks pad their posted times. We compared over 139,000 measured queue walks with the boards: rides like this one typically move at about 72% of the posted time. This is a modelled estimate, we do not yet have measured walk-through data for this ride. Queues move slowest mid-afternoon and fastest at opening and closing. None of this is a promise: on peak days some queues do run the full posted time.
Frequently asked questions

The posted wait averages 35 minutes across every day we have tracked, with a recorded peak of 75 minutes.
When is the best time to ride Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway?
