Tokyo DisneySea’s Soaring Ride Hits 6.5-Hour Wait, Longest Since 2019
Reports point to reduced capacity shaping the surge in queues.
Overview
- On January 6, Soaring: Fantastic Flight posted a 380-minute queue at Tokyo DisneySea, equal to six hours and 20 minutes.
- Resort regulars said it was the highest posted wait at Tokyo Disney Resort since Soaring reached 420 minutes in November 2019.
- Guests reported cast members citing reduced operating capacity for Soaring, which they believe contributed to the long lines.
- Recent visits observed early closures to most guests with access limited to Premier Access holders as a demand-management measure.
- The spike comes as U.S. parks report softer 2025 attendance and Walt Disney World promotes new hotel deals, even as holiday waits still hit 195–225 minutes at EPCOT.
