Posted vs real wait

Disney’s posted waits run high. For Tiana's Bayou Adventure, a posted 60 minutes at 2pm has typically meant about 44 minutes in line, and at 8pm about 36 (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?

It replaced Splash Mountain and kept its flume, including the roughly 50-foot final drop.

The story is set after the film: Tiana is preparing a Mardi Gras celebration.
