  "answer": "The shortest average wait for Pirates of the Caribbean was 8 AM–9 AM (5 min), versus 28 min at its busiest hour, 12 PM–1 PM. Rope drop averaged 5 min and the last hour before close 13 min, so the first hour after opening (rope drop) is the better bet. Measured by SupaPark over the last 27 days (Sep 23–Oct 20, 2026).",
