Ok -- is it possible to have 1 person from our group to wait in line and the others join when the wait time is short?
Okay.....think about it....you've been waiting in line for an hour or more and are getting close....all of a sudden a group of people push past you to join someone ahead of you and your wait just got longer....how would you feel?? - VeloMouseGirl

I'm sorry, but I can't stand it when people do this. I once saw people do this in line for RSR, and they left a trail of very angry people behind them. - CM_LionGeek

Sorry I'm such a bully. :S - CM_LionGeek 342.0 #428 8:45PM
People kept doing this while we were in line for RSR and the people behind us said it better than I ever could "If you want to get on the ride, wait the entire time like everyone else". - mermaidhair 176.3 #1911 9:07PM
The only time I don't get mad when people do this is when they've had to take a little one to the potty. IMO that's th only acceptable time. - lostgirl7988

We were in line at the HM and I left my large family and took my 5 yr old to go to the restroom and came right back. There were 4 women that had just gotten in line. I said "excuse me i need to get back to my family" and they were yelling at me and shouting "liar" for the next 10 min until we got in. It really kinda scared me. - adisneyfamily 515.5 #228 9:28PM
That is really crappy that those ladies did that! I too do not mind if it's a minute or so that the other parent is parking the stroller or if a parent has to leave and come back to take a little one to the bathroom. We've had to do that before over the years. But we leave as much of the party behind in line so it's only 2 of us. - Autoalice 135.7 #2513 10:03PM
Thank-you! It was just the two of us, I kind of think they were looking for trouble. - adisneyfamily 515.5 #228 10:06PM
I'm just going to be honest and say that it would be beyond rude and insensitive. I really believe people should behave in a way that they would want done to them. If its just one adult and a kid under 5 okay. Otherwise it's not cool. - aidensmama

Only if the people who join you use strollers to move people out of the way to get to you. And they should yell yolo. - madsdad

Don't forget the kid leashes, and Pennywise should somehow be involved, lol! - Spoonful_O_Sugar 436.3 #285 10:16PM
I'm probably the unpopular opinion, but I don't think one person is a big deal of they have a mighty fine excuse, especially if it's a short wait. Just politely ask the few groups behind you if it's okay. But then again, if it's a short wait there shouldn't be an issue with waiting at the end of the line once your whole party joins. - ladylikesdisney

Yeah if I was holding a spot for other mousewaiters I would at least have that conversation with the folks behind me so they understand, good point! - madsdad 1130.4 #72 9:30PM
I agree! - snowwannab 355.2 #403 9:30PM
I agree, when it's only a couple people and they're polite I'm fine, it's jut when you have a whole clown car driving in is when I get a tad upset. - CM_LionGeek 342.0 #428 9:33PM
One person even two is okie dokie but say 5? Heck no. - aidensmama 336.6 #445 9:38PM
I actually don't mind at all. Peace, Love and Disneyland. - DreamKeeper2010
3.3 #19525 10:18PM
I'll be honest, I have left my husband standing in line once or twice because I had a screaming baby or a pottying baby. I hate, loathe, despise, and abominate the feeling I get in the pit of my stomach when I have to cut back through, though. - LittleAprilShowers
471.8 #256 11:17PM
That's so much different than intentionally saving a spot in line for the rest of your party. I never mind when it's an adult and child. - VeloMouseGirl 549.7 #203 11:20PM
I'd say it's possible, but not at all encouraged (actually very discouraged lol). Best to all wait in line together! :) - LoveDisneyDucklings

It's been dull today anyway lol - madsdad 1130.4 #72 8:40PM
Wise words - VeloMouseGirl 549.7 #203 8:41PM
Agreed, I think I was polite though right? ;) - LoveDisneyDucklings 28.6 #4445 8:42PM
Sorry guys, I came off as harsh. :( - CM_LionGeek 342.0 #428 8:43PM
lol liongeek, you were fine, someone will say something must harsher. :) - madsdad 1130.4 #72 8:45PM
Liongeek you were just being honest, I think it's totally fine :) - LoveDisneyDucklings 28.6 #4445 8:46PM
LionGeek, your comment was fine =) - LBChica 1500.4 #52 8:48PM
D'aww shucks. - CM_LionGeek 342.0 #428 8:52PM
It's Emoji 2, it's not integrated with the keyboard yet though unless you pay for it. Otherwise you have to copy and paste - LBChica 1500.4 #52 9:47PM
I agree should not be done. I know we comment everytime this happens to us. Insert unhappy face 😒 - cacjacky

Umm..Yeah you can, but it's kinda frowned upon. It is a little annoying when your waiting and this entire party starts cutting through. But it's really up to you. - JoeDownTheRabbitHole
395.9 #338 8:41PM
The second one I believe, but could be wrong lol - LoveDisneyDucklings 28.6 #4445 8:42PM
I think it was the second one, so I changed my comment haha - JoeDownTheRabbitHole 395.9 #338 8:44PM
Haha and a very true comment it is ;) - LoveDisneyDucklings 28.6 #4445 8:44PM
Thanks! Hahaha 😜 - JoeDownTheRabbitHole 395.9 #338 8:48PM
Haha you are very welcome 😊 - LoveDisneyDucklings 28.6 #4445 8:51PM
I was with TheLionGeek when this happened. We had been waiting for hours and about 15 or more people came up behind us to meet their waiting party. It was a hot day and all of the other guests in line were very upset. - snowwannab
355.2 #403 8:48PM
It wasn't pretty. - CM_LionGeek 342.0 #428 8:52PM
If only I was there... "why I outta!" haha 😜 - LoveDisneyDucklings 28.6 #4445 8:57PM
I was always told if more than half your party is in line that its okay. We've only done this once though because my 6yr old cousin has ADHD and standing in line for TSMM was too much for her. So her mom and I walked around with her for awhile and then met up with my two other cousins and boyfriend as they were getting glasses. That was the only attraction our entire trip that was more than a 20 minute wait and we felt it was acceptable to do this. As far as I'm aware nobody had a problem or said anything to us about it. - KermitFan13
407.8 #321 8:59PM
Ok I amend my previous statement. This is also acceptable lol - lostgirl7988 541.6 #208 9:00PM
I agree, there are circumstances that are acceptable like these. It's just when there is a huge party like this was. I have seen this many times with little ones and it never bothers me. I remember those days very well! I think anyone would be understanding. - snowwannab 355.2 #403 9:04PM
I agree that if a person in the group has a disability they and another person are welcome to join the group later. - aidensmama 336.6 #445 9:10PM
Just don't do it in front of Slotherini. He likes to revenge crop dust. - LaneSparrow316

Someone "hot boxed" the stretching room yesterday in the haunted mansion. Had me gagging and gasping for air. - _BELLE_ 217.6 #1392 10:37PM
I think it would be ok for just 1 adult and a small child or special needs child that cant wait in line for a long time. . - flores509
200.3 #1631 9:28PM
In general I think this extremely unfair. That said on the opening day of TSMM they did not had umbrellas for shade and it was very hot. My sister was struggling with the heat so she sat in the shade until we got to the shaded part. Everyone in lone was understanding. Other than I that I think it's only fair for everyone to stand in line. - ilovemickey8
321.6 #517 9:37PM
I think its ok for one adult and young children to leave and come back. Sometimes my daughter can talk up a storm and I think people want a little quiet time so I send the hubby and her to a carousel or for a snack. - boomom
270.8 #820 9:37PM
That being said they usually only go if its 45 minutes wait, and are usually gone for 10-15 minutes in the middle. - boomom 270.8 #820 9:40PM
I think it's ok as long as you ask every single person behind you if it's ok with them and they all approve. - Minnique
451.8 #273 10:14PM
I have had to get out of line so many times to take my daughter potty I have not had any problems getting back in line cause most of the time they remember me squeezing past then to get out with my daughter - stitchohana
46.3 #3836 10:16PM
This happened to us when the little mermaid ride 1st opened. We waited an hour and these people in front of us had like 20 more people join them, pushing right past us and not even acknowledging or saying excuse me. So when the time was appropriate we opened the line separator and cut in front of their whole party. They were shocked needless to say. - BayPrincess

"Happiest place on Earth"? Or "Snottiest Place on Earth"? Y'all got everything Mickey shaped over there, what more do u want? I mean do u need caste mates to eat for you as well? - DreamKeeper2010
3.3 #19525 10:25PM
If its one or two people who don't make a big production of rejoining their group, I have no problem with it. I have a really hard time waiting in line sometimes, so I slip away for 5 minutes every once in awhile to use the bathroom or fill my water bottle up or go get FPs while my husband waits. Then, I rejoin him at an inconspicuous spot. But if like 5 people come and try to shove everyone out of the way to meet up with the rest of the group, then I think it's rude. - Spoonful_O_Sugar
436.3 #285 10:42PM
It happens to me all the time - E-Ticket
772.5 #128 10:44PM
