Welcome to this week’s Pixie Post wait time report. We are analyzing standby data from November 2 through November 8, 2026, to help you navigate your next park visit. Our records indicate a general upward trend in wait times across the Florida parks, while the California parks remained relatively stable compared to the previous week.
Walt Disney World
Every park at Walt Disney World saw an increase in average standby waits this week. Hollywood Studios remains the park with the highest overall averages, jumping from 29 minutes last week to 37 minutes this week. Interestingly, while Saturday was the busiest day for most of the resort, Hollywood Studios peaked on Sunday, November 8, with a 44-minute average. Slinky Dog Dash (57 minutes) and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance (56 minutes) continue to lead the wait times there.
EPCOT also saw a significant jump, rising to a 28-minute average. The park's top-tier attractions remain the primary drivers of these numbers, with Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind averaging 69 minutes and Test Track following at 62 minutes. Wednesday, November 4, offered the best window for visitors with a 24-minute average.
Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom both saw their weekly averages rise by 5 or 6 minutes. At Magic Kingdom, TRON Lightcycle / Run averaged 53 minutes, while Animal Kingdom’s Avatar Flight of Passage averaged 45 minutes. Saturday, November 7, was the busiest day for both of these parks.

Planning tip from this week
Based on this week's data, Sunday proved to be the most volatile day for planning depending on which coast you are visiting. At Disneyland Resort, Sunday was the quietest day of the week for both parks, with Disneyland Park hitting a weekly low of 12 minutes. However, at Walt Disney World, Sunday was the busiest day of the week for Hollywood Studios (44 minutes). If you are visiting Florida on a Sunday, consider Magic Kingdom instead, as it recorded its lowest average of 16 minutes that same day.
