Disney World March 2025 Wait Time Comparisons

Avatar Flight of Passage saw its March average wait time drop by over 20 minutes, but wait times increased for Kilimanjaro Safaris and Dinosaur.
Resort wide, wait times were highest the 4th and 5th weeks of the month. The 4th week was the local Orlando spring break. The week of March 23rd saw the highest wait times at the resort in 2025 (outside of New Years week), tied with President's Day week.
Looking forward, the two weeks prior to Easter in late April are likely going to build upon these numbers.
