Disney Issues Test Track Advisory at EPCOT, Urges Planning for Long Waits

The notice underscores demand following the ride’s July refurbishment and clarifies it is not a closure or safety issue.

Overview

  • On October 21, Disney issued an advisory for Test Track to alert guests to elevated crowding and extended standby waits.
  • Test Track remains open, with the guidance framed to help visitors manage expectations and plan their day effectively.
  • Since reopening in July, standby times have frequently topped 120 minutes and have at times exceeded Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind.
  • Recent observations still show meaningful waits on slower days, including a 45‑minute line reported just days ago.
  • Guest strategies highlighted in coverage include targeting Test Track at rope drop or using a paid Lightning Lane option to avoid lengthy queues.
