Re: Just got live word from DL Pirates opening!

OMGosh! How exciting! But that is one long line, man. At least you have some shade there, and you can grab a dole whip by the tiki room and skewer from Bengal BBQ

Re: Just got live word from DL Pirates opening!

OH MY! I just reread your first post, I thought it said the line went through Adventureland, not Frontierland! Holy heck, no Dole Whip or BBQ for you. And not much shade either.

Those pics are amazing. I love POTC, but I couldn't wait in that line.

Re: Just got live word from DL Pirates opening!

It was 180 minutes this morning; it's now down to 90.

Will it be better in a few days? I wish I knew!

Twist didn't tell me a posted wait time, but judging from the route of the line my guess would be at LEAST 180-240 minutes!!!! Tigger I would just plan on getting there BEFORE park opening and take advantage of an "early entry" if you can. That's what I plan on doing Thursday and I DO NOT believe PoTC is a FastPass attraction.

Hey, does anyone know how many FPs you can hold in DL at a time?

Depends. Once you get your first fastpass, you can only get another one (A) after your fastpass window has begun, or (B) 2 hours later, whichever is sooner. The same holds true all day.

The new effects ARE great! DH and I braved the line this morning. I have such a story to tell though, I'm going to stop beating around the bush and finally post a thread about it.

The new effects are awesome! I waited until Wednesday to do it and we only waited 30 minutes!

The CM's said the were expecting the line to be a 5-6 hour wait on Monday, but it was only about 3 hours.
