Posted vs real wait
Disney’s posted waits run high. For Journey Into Imagination With Figment, a posted 60 minutes at 2pm has typically meant about 32 minutes in line, and at 8pm about 23 (from timed waits people recorded, 2015–2021 — before today’s Lightning Lane system, so treat it as an estimate). DisneyIQ shows both numbers on the live board.
Did you know?
Figment was brought back after fans missed him in the 1999 version of the ride.
