Which Disney park has the longest lines on Earth right now? We pulled every posted standby wait from all twelve Disney theme parks — Walt Disney World, Disneyland Resort, Disneyland Paris, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo — for the 30 days from Aug 28 – Sep 26, 2026, and averaged them attraction by attraction.
The short answer: Tokyo DisneySea, and it isn't close. 6 of the 20 longest average posted waits on the planet belong to that one park, led by Soaring: Fantastic Flight at an average of 127 minutes across the whole day. The longest average line outside Japan, among attractions that ran most of the month, was Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT (77 min).

Only attractions that operated on at least 15 of the 30 days are ranked.

Tokyo DisneySea is in a league of its own. Its top attractions (Soaring: Fantastic Flight, Anna and Elsa's Frozen Journey, Journey to the Center of the Earth, Toy Story Mania!) all averaged more than 100 minutes posted — as an all-day average, not a peak. In fact, 5 of its attractions average longer than the longest line at any park outside Japan (among attractions that ran most of the month). If you only read one follow-up, make it our Tokyo DisneySea best-time-to-ride data.
A character meet beats every ride in Hong Kong. The longest average line at Hong Kong Disneyland isn't a coaster — it's Meet LinaBell (Duffy and Friends Play House) at 62 minutes. LinaBell, the pink fox from the Duffy and Friends lineup, out-draws every attraction in the park.
Stateside, the headliners you'd expect. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at EPCOT (77 min) is Walt Disney World's longest average posted wait, and Radiator Springs Racers (59 min) leads the Disneyland Resort.
Left off the ranking because they didn't run most of the month: Crush's Coaster at Walt Disney Studios Park averaged 79 min but only operated on 10 of the 30 days; Peter Pan's Flight at Disneyland Park (Paris) averaged 59 min but only operated on 11 of the 30 days. Short or partial runs can inflate an average, so we list them separately.
Why this matters for your trip
A 60-minute average and a 60-minute peak are very different days. Averages include the quiet first hour and the last hour before close, which is exactly where most of these lines are shortest — so the practical question is when, not just which. Every park above has its own hour-by-hour breakdown on our site: Walt Disney World, Disneyland Resort, Disneyland Paris, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo.
How we measured this. We log every park's official posted standby wait roughly every five to seven minutes. We only count readings where the attraction was listed as operating with a posted wait above zero, and we convert every timestamp to the park's own local time. These are posted waits — the park's own estimate at that moment — not measured time-in-line, and resorts differ in how conservatively they post, so treat cross-resort comparisons as a guide rather than a stopwatch.
