    Waiting in a long line for a restroom. A lady in a chair jumped to the front. It made me angry. I understand that there is a special stall for her to use, and rightfully so, but it is there when her turn in line comes.
    Just because she is in a chair does not mean she has to “go” any worse than anyone else in line!

    The first time I took my only child to Disney was when she was 2. Just her and I. I was going through a divorce with her dad and as a newly single mom with a crappy paying job, it was something I wanted to prove to myself that I can do things like this for my daughter. We ended up going yearly for about 10 years after that- it was always our thing. But I noticed it since the first trip-giant families with 1 person in line and the other 20 showing up infront of us. I always felt a bit of frustration because we werent a football team. My 2 year old waited patiently, why couldnt everyone else? We were always getting shoved around. We quit going after 10 years of this, and the last time we ended up only on 2 rides all day. Rude hicks.

    If everyone did what g
    GREA says she does, which is to wait in line for a couple of hours and then call her whole family to the front of the line once she reaches it, the real line would be 5 times as long as it appeared because there would be 5 times the number of people waiting at the restaurants and in the shade as there would be in line, that would make the wait time impossible to predict and would ruin the experience for everyone but the families of people who don’t care about the rules like GREA.

    The rules are there for a reason and no one is allowed to break them. The people who do break them are actually guilty of a form of bullying, whether they realize it or not. They are intentionally pushing other people out of their way for their own convenience and without any concern about those other people.

    There should be a policy in place where they use the magic bands to determine who jumped the line, and then once they determine it they put those people out of the park for the rest of the day, that is after the first offense. If they do it twice in one season they should be banned for the season, and if they do it again the next season they should be banned for life. Disney has plenty of customers and they will never miss a handful of line jumpers… Most of whom are probably from New York.

      Agree with what you’ve said here! Plus…if everyone let their families stay back only to cut in line later, those wait times at ride entries would be meaningless!

    Sounds like alot of entitled selfish adults crying about nothing. Why would this warrant getting kicked out of the parks?
    Family haters, little kid haters. Geez
    Disneyland is a family place meant for kids.
    Also I am tired of people treating teens as adults and giving them a hard time.
    I have been to Disneyland pregnant, nursing, with toddlers, babies ect.
    If a kid has to use the restroom an adult has to take them so 2 people would be reentering the line.
    One time had a 4 yo nephew pee on a fake tree inside que without saying anything to me because didn’t want to lose place in line because it was just me and him so no one to save place in line.
    Also had to nurse in line because it was just me with my baby and already waited 30+ minutes and didn’t want to get back in line and wait all over again for the same ride. Everybody in line looking at the sky and was so uncomfortable but its fair right.
    I agree with a warning system with being sent to back of line for line cutting family for more than 2 people.
    I agree with keeping kids out of line as much as possible not just my kids but others.
    All rides should have virtual que for families with little kids or built in benches for adults to sit in line. Seriously theme park lines are not really accommodating
    A family lounge for kids to wait for parent swap.
    genie plus is already line cutting but as a society that is okay for $$ just let me bend over backwards for people with money but block a family cutting the regular line sure hope you sleep better at night..
    People are getting meanier and crabbier everyday but expect disneyland to make them happy..
    Also coment about wanting a handicap wheelchair lady to wait for the 1 stall that is big enough for her chair to open up is ridiculous sometime i have baby in stroller and have to wait for that stall and I have to wait 2 times as long to catch it open or it is the only stall with a diaper change station in it. Other people should not use because it is open it is meant for disabled people and stroller/diaper changing people.
    Same people when I am super pregnant and don’t want to use common descensy to let me go first to pee and want me to wait in line and thats fair to them. Sure 👍

      Just because you let a guy bust inside you does not mean anyone needs to let you do anything because you decided to have a baby and go to Disney. That’s your problem, maybe don’t go until your kid is old enough to wait in line properly like every other kid and person.

      You’re so entitled it’s hilarious

    I agree that line jumping is not cool, but also wish people would be more aware of the line in general. We were just at Disney Land and waited in line for the Incredicoaster for TWO HOURS. By hour 1.5, my son (9 and autistic) had to go to the bathroom. Like, emergency bathroom need. My husband stayed in line while I rushed him to the bathroom. When we came back to the line, the group behind us started yelling at us for cutting the line. The line had hardly moved at all between us leaving and coming back, my husband was still there, and we had already waited in line for 1.5 hours, so they had presumably SEEN us prior to us leaving and coming back. Yikes to the whole situation.

    I have no problem with someone already in line with their party jumping out to use the restroom. It happens to the best of us! But other than that scenario, Disney should have a line policy similar to their dining reservation seating policy, which is not to seat groups until everyone in their party is present. We were once in a 2 hour line for Mine Train, and as we were walking there a young boy went running by us and got in line by himself. After about 15 minutes his “party” came trickling in, all 15 of them. We counted! Not all came at once. Groups of 2 and 3 would come every couple of minutes. It was egregious and infuriating! A few of us said something, but with no cast members anywhere in sight, there was little we could do about it. It’s unfortunate people like this can’t be caught and shipped out the exit just before boarding the ride!

    Yeah no. Your kids aren’t coming past me and my kids to join you. Someone behind me may allow your kids to join you.BEHIND me.

    Happens all the time yet Disney workers do nothing about it. I stood in a 70 minute wait line for Snow White ride for it to be pushed back to 3 hours cause family members were calling each other when they were close to getting on the ride making people wait longer. That staff told us they can’t do anything about it.
