Last queue entry times at Disney quesrion

casualvisitor · 27 May 22, 12:55 AM

As an example Hollywood Studios close at 21.00 so the question is, what time do they stop people joining a queue / line. Wondering in particular about ROTR and does everyone in the queue get to ride after it is closed off.

Thanks in advance.

In theory as long as you are in the queue before park closing then yes but everywhere is posting about this so at some point this may change. Not sure how they manage this as far as CM's are concerned, do they get overtime? Or is it just expected that they will just work?

Disney stops people joining the queue at closing time. Apparently everyone who has joined the queued before closing time gets to ride - eventually.

Disney is somewhat different to theme parks over here. At Disney the �closing time� is the time when they stop letting any more people in, not the time when they make sure everyone is out.

Nimbus I just wonder if there will be a cutoff at some point in the future, I've read a couple of posts recommending joining "the" queues just before closing so I'd suppose not beyond the realms of possibility that those future queues just keep getting bigger & bigger IYKWIM Imagine being a CM on Rise & every other CM finished hours ago!

I do recall one MNSSHP where the queue for Space was at 90 mins as we were leaving at 11:45pm!

We came off Soarin' at just after 9pm (park closing time) and there was tape across the standby lane at the entrance.

At the entrance to the Land Pavilion there were two CM's not letting anyone in.

So looks like park closing.

Yeah park closing is when they will stop you from joining queues

Possibly there might be a cutoff point in the future, yes. Although I suspect what they might do is make the closing time earlier.

I suppose it depends on how long the queues get at the end of the day.
