We’re accustomed to the fact that long lines can pop up ANYWHERE in Disney World, even in the most unexpected places!
Whether for cookies or Pandora rides, lines just come with the Disney territory. But today we spotted a line outside of EPCOT that has been around since Park Hopping came back, but you may not even realize what the line is for!
When Disney World brought Park Hopping back, we were super excited to finally be able to visit more than one park per day again! After all, Disney World’s four parks are like a magical buffet — we want a little of each!
Of course, the return of Park Hopping looked quite different than pre-closure Park Hopping, when guests could come and go at any time throughout the day. Nowadays, the option doesn’t start until after 2PM each day!
So it’s honestly not totally surprising that Park Hopping lines could bottleneck a little before 2PM, as we saw today with a loooooong line outside of EPCOT.
After spending the morning in EPCOT ourselves, we were off to Disney’s Hollywood Studios when we spotted the extensive queue, with patient guests sitting idle as they awaited until 2PM.
While this is one of the longest Park Hopping lines we’ve seen, it surely won’t be the last time we spot something like this, which is an apt reminder to try and time your Park Hopping so you don’t arrive at peak time!
