It\u2019s a small world after all, but unfortunately, sometimes the ride\u2019s operating hours are even smaller, which was the case for the iconic attraction at Magic Kingdom yesterday.<\/p>\n

Unplanned it\u2019s a small world Closure \"Colorful<\/a><\/p>\n

Guests hoping to enjoy the happiest cruise that ever sailed had a much harder time doing so on Saturday, June 6, as \u201cit\u2019s a small world\u201d<\/a> spent most of the day unavailable at Magic Kingdom.<\/p>\n

According to tracked wait times from Saturday, June 6, \u201cit\u2019s a small world\u201d opened the day with a short posted wait, rising from 5 minutes at 9 a.m. to 10 minutes at 10 a.m, pretty typical for the attraction.<\/p>\n

By 11 a.m., however, the Fantasyland boat ride was listed as temporarily closed. The closure continued hour after hour throughout the afternoon and evening. The attraction was still listed as temporarily closed at 8 p.m., meaning the ride was unavailable for roughly 10 consecutive hours during regular park operations.<\/p>\n

Magic Kingdom was open from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. on June 6, with Early Entry beginning at 8:30 a.m. The closure of \u201cit\u2019s a small world\u201d was not listed as a scheduled refurbishment, and Disney has not announced a long-term closure for the classic Fantasyland attraction. <\/p>\n

\"\u201cit\u2019s<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cit\u2019s a small world\u201d remains one of Magic Kingdom\u2019s original opening-day-style family attractions, known best for its Mary Blair designs and the Sherman Brothers\u2019 earworm theme song.<\/p>\n

Temporary ride closures are common at Walt Disney World, but a closure lasting most of the operating day is more notable, especially for a high-capacity attraction that typically helps absorb Fantasyland crowds.<\/p>\n
