Biggest queue at Disney was when Pirates got Jack Sparrow added in Disneyland the queue when I got there was 4 hours +. I didn't wait thou - instead I went to California Adventure which was empty. Most queues in WDW are better than most the other parks these days as they have more fast passes there. The longest queues are usually for test track, expedition everest, rock n roller coaster, splash mountain, big thunder mountain & tower of terror.

About a third of these are Test Track ... I am amused.
And I hear ya, TestTrack (referring to the user) about Top Thrill Dragster. I haven't yet dared to ride it, but the lines are INSANE.
Longest wait? Probably for Test Track, I stood through a breakdown once. Otherwise, if the line's too long, I probably won't bother get in. My family's trips to Disney usually extended a month plus. I'd have plenty of time later.

I won't wait longer than 20 to 30 mins max. You can always get on later or use a fastpass to get on the popular attractions, or go during the parades or fireworks. You waste to much of your time and money waiting. Go do something else, even if its just sitting on a bench enjoying the atmosphere.

my longest wait time, 2 hours 20 minutes, for Everest. this was when everest was first introduced and everybody wanted to ride it, i literally saw people paying for cutting a part of the line (i'm not sure if that was allowed, but they didn't get caught, so w/e)

but man, since the bulk of the line goes through that garden hut area, the place was a sauna. but the wait was well worth it

TT break down to much and thunderstorms roll by to often to stand in line for any length of time.

I don't really think this counts.. I waited 5 hours in MCO for my luggage and transportation after Hurricane Charley and I was waiting to get to WDW. I've never really had a long wait in WDW I'm glad to say.

I didn't wait in the line because I had a fastpass, but the line for Splash Mountain in Disneyland was 150 minutes!

On my trip last week I had waited 80 minutes for TSM.

Would I do it again? Probably for under an hour. I caould only take so much of Mr. Potato Head's corniness.

I do believe in one of my recent trips to WDW we saw Soarin' at 150 minutes or so

pre-fastpass Splash Mountain in july, 90 minute wait. we paid $2 (back in '96) each for 2 cold soda's amongst five of us and held the icy bottles against our necks. I was 9 and it was the first time in my life I remember dripping sweat.

Ahh Spaulo, I remember those Indiana Jones lines. Good times, good time.

Consistently, the longest line has been Splash Mountain at both DL and WDW. To me, it screams, 'Disney, add more water-type attractions!'

But I also think that the 'longest' is relative to the quality of the queue. I don't mind waiting a bit longer for Splash and Indy. Plenty to look at. But I waited 45 minutes for Buzz at the Magic Kingdom and I WANTED TO DIE!! That queue is like being processed for prison. (Not that I would know personally--just imagining.) The sirens! Gawd, make it stop!

So in terms of longest wait, that would win based on the horror of it all.
