Clearly, Disney World does not intend to have any night time entertainment through the rest of 2021 and they do not intend to bring back “Extra Magic” hours. As park capacity increases, wait times will get much longer … possibly even two hours. Even the wait times on the Disney App are not accurate … just as a cast member. The bottom lines question is why even go to Disney World in 2021 … unless you want to stand in lines and have no entertainment. It’s just not worth the cost.
I went to Universal island of adventures last week and in 9 hours did 3 rides. Total waste of money. They are socially distancing on the rides and every ride wait is at least 45 minutes up to 2 hours for each ride. And they closed at 8 pm, they should have longer not shorter hours.
Why shorter hours compared to today? Will they adjust closer to August?
