SupaPark Data — Posted wait times

Disney World posted wait times: July 2026

As of Oct 12, 2026, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind had the longest average posted standby wait at Walt Disney World in July 2026 (Jul 17–31, 2026): 75.1 minutes across 399 open half-hours, peaking at 86.8 minutes in the 7 PM hour (SupaPark measured data).

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind posted a wait of 60 minutes or more in 90% of its open half-hours, the highest share of the 51 rides SupaPark ranked.

Across those 51 rides, posted waits peaked in the 12 PM hour (average 29 minutes).

SupaPark's day-ahead forecast missed the hourly average posted wait by 7.3 minutes on average over 4,784 graded ride-hours (bias -1.8 min).

What this measures. These are Disney's posted standby waits as SupaPark read them, about every 5 minutes, plus how SupaPark's own day-ahead forecast compared. SupaPark does not time queues, so this report does not claim actual waits. This month is partial: Jul 17–31, 2026.

Ranked: rides with at least 100 open half-hours this month, by mean posted wait. Forecast error is SupaPark's day-ahead forecast vs the hourly average posted wait (blank when the ride is not forecast). Sample: 19,610 open half-hours and 111,989 posted readings across 55 attractions, 15 days.

Not ranked (under 100 open half-hours): 4 attractions, listed in the CSV.

What about actual waits?

Posted waits are what the park displays; the wait you stand in is often shorter. SupaPark does not yet time queues, so it has no measured actual waits to publish. The Real Wait estimate shown on /real-wait is a model fitted on TouringPlans' public 2018-2019 timed-wait dataset, collected before Lightning Lane existed; it is not SupaPark data and is not used in this report (definition).

How this is measured

Posted wait. Disney's posted standby wait for a ride, as shown in its app, read by SupaPark about every 5 minutes. Readings are averaged per ride per half hour (open readings only); one open half-hour of one ride is one "slot". Posted waits are measured, not estimated. (canonical definition)

Monthly posted-wait figures. For a ride and month: the mean posted wait is the average of its open half-hour slots; "60+ minute share" is the share of those slots whose average posted wait was 60 minutes or more; the peak hour is the hour of day (Eastern) with the highest average posted wait, among hours with at least 10 slots. A ride is ranked only with at least 100 open half-hours in the month. Every figure is a slot-weighted sum over the cells CSV. (canonical definition)

Posted wait vs day-ahead forecast. For a ride and month: SupaPark's served forecast made one day ahead for each ride and hour, compared with the average posted wait later observed in that hour. Mean absolute error is the average size of the miss in minutes; bias is the average of forecast minus posted (positive = the forecast ran high). (canonical definition)

To reproduce a ride's numbers: in cells.csv, mean posted = sum(slots x mean_posted_min) / sum(slots) over that ride's rows, and the 60+ minute share = slots in bands 60-89 and 90+ / all its slots. In forecast.csv, forecast error = sum_abs_error_min / graded_hours and bias = (sum_predicted_min - sum_posted_min) / graded_hours.
