When does Seven Dwarfs Mine Train's Lightning Lane sell out?

How we measure this

SupaPark checks Lightning Lane availability every few seconds and records every change. For each day we find the first minute after 7:00 AM Eastern when no return times are left and fewer than 10% of the following hour has any. That minute is the sellout time. If nothing was left at 7:00 AM and the hour before, the day counts as gone before 7 AM.

Short re-releases (cancellations) after a sellout do not undo it; we count them separately, and record when return times came back for a sustained hour. We leave a day out when our collection had a gap or the ride itself reported being down near the sellout, so a breakdown is never counted as a sellout. Times are park-local (Eastern). Data as of 2026-10-12, covering the last 30 days.

Metric definition. A Lightning Lane "sellout" is the first minute after 7:00 AM Eastern when no return times are left and fewer than 10% of the following hour has any; that minute is the sellout time. A day where nothing was left at 7:00 AM (or in the hour before) counts as "gone before 7 AM" rather than as a time. Short re-releases from cancellations after a sellout do not undo it. Days with a collection gap, or when the ride itself reported being down near the sellout, are left out, so a breakdown is never counted as a sellout. The "median sellout time" is taken over days that sold out after 7:00 AM only; "sold-out days" counts both kinds. Every number comes from the same daily table (ll_sellout_daily) on every SupaPark page. Weekly figures: SupaPark Data.
