How much your date actually matters

Visiting EPCOT in June instead of March cuts about 13 minutes off the average wait for every ride. Picking a Tuesday over a Saturday is worth another 4 minutes. On a 10-ride day, that is the difference between a few short waits and most of your afternoon spent in line, and it costs nothing but scheduling.
