Wait, what!? Remy 64 minutes at rope drop!?

64 minute wait for Remy at Rope Drop? How can this be correct?
We’ll be arriving via International Gateway and we’ll be at the gate before 9:30!

The day we’re going has EETPH. Should we just wait to ride Remy during that time?

We tapped into Epcot yesterday at 9:00 for early admission(at the International Gateway). Headed straight to Remy. We were on the ride at 9:27. By the time we got off the ride, the line was much longer. Just make sure you tap into Epcot at 9 and you will do great.
We also rode it during the deluxe late hours and it took longer, though not a terrible wait.

This is great! Thank you! I didn’t think they’d let us in before 9:30a. Or at least not THAT much before 9:30.

We were pleasantly surprised as well.

How crowded is IG at 9am? (I’m guessing it must be less crowded than the main entrance. And also give you an incredible proximity advantage to Remy.)

We walked over from Yacht Club and there was hardly anyone there. Only took a few minutes to get in.

Were there already people in line at Remy by the time you got to it?

This is interesting. So, despite advertising 30 minutes ETPE, they are really doing 1 hour? (And…are they also letting people who aren’t resort guests in earlier than posted hours?)

Sounds like, from Wahoohokie’s account, they are letting in earlier than 9:30 but not letting people on rides until right around 9:30.

Oh, that makes sense…and is good to know for planning purposes!

We don’t know if any other rides were open that early. But yes, running the ride before 9:30am. When we came in they were not letting offsite guests past the store there at the IG (so inside taps). You had to scan again (CMs with ipads) to get into World Showcase.

Oh, so when you got to Remy they were already putting people on it?

Open was 10:00. EPE was 9:30

Yes but not a lot of people.

So through the gate at 9 for a 930 ETPE. Got it! This is important information!
