Parky — Park Planning

Use this when a visitor names or describes a park or ride and you need its canonical Parky ID. Searches only parks in Parky's current Disney and Universal release scope. It does not retrieve current wait times.

Use this when a visitor asks for current posted ride waits or operating status at one supported park. Resolve the park ID first. Each entry has a type: ride (always listed; "unavailable", not closed, when no live value is reported), experience, show or meet (listed only while reported). This tool does not predict future waits.

Use this when a visitor asks about operating hours for one supported park within the next 60 park-local days. Resolve the park ID first. Schedule windows have guest-facing categories and labels; Early Entry is an eligibility-based window, not a separate ticketed event. These are reported schedules, which the operator may change.

Use this when a visitor asks how crowded one supported park may be within the next 30 park-local days. Resolve the park ID first. Returns a forecast and range, not a guarantee or a live wait.

Use this when a visitor asks what Lightning Lane (or Universal Express) costs at one supported park on a date, or which rides have Lightning Lane return times available now and how soon. Return times exist only for today; prices cover the next 30 park-local days. Parky cannot buy or book Lightning Lane.

Use this when a visitor asks when to ride something to avoid long waits on a specific day within the next 30 days. Resolve the ride ID first. Returns hourly predicted waits with bounds, the typical wait by hour for that weekday, and the best and worst windows in park-local time; these are estimates, not guarantees.

Use this when a visitor asks how often a ride breaks down or which rides at a park are least reliable. Returns 30-day uptime percentage, outages per day, and average and longest outage, least reliable first. Resolve the park ID first.

Use this when a visitor asks about a ride itself: height requirement, ride length, top speed, biggest drop, ride type, land, or whether it offers Lightning Lane. Resolve the ride ID first. Facts vary by ride; missing facts are omitted rather than guessed.

Use this when a visitor asks when a show, parade, fireworks or character meet happens at one supported park today or within the next week. Times are usually published for today only.

Use this when a visitor asks whether or when a ride broke down: with ride_id, each outage of that ride over the last 1 to 30 days with start and end times; without ride_id, every outage at the park today including rides down right now. Outages come from Disney's and Universal's own live feeds.

Use this when a visitor asks about the weather, storms, heat, lightning or weather alerts at one supported park right now, or how many rides are down. Weather is the National Weather Service's latest observation and alerts; it is current conditions, not a forecast.

Use this when a visitor asks what park tickets cost at a supported resort for a start date within the next year (walt-disney-world, disneyland-resort, universal-orlando, universal-studios-hollywood). Returns the prices Disney or Universal showed Parky on its last check. Parky cannot sell or book tickets.

Use this when a visitor asks whether a park has reservations or blockout dates for a ticket or pass type on given dates at a supported resort. Returns availability by segment (ticket or pass type) for up to 7 days, from Disney's and Universal's own calendars.

Use this when a visitor asks when the next Walt Disney World bus leaves a resort or stop for a park or Disney Springs. Pass a stop name or ID; without one, it lists the stops. Predictions come from Disney's own bus tracking.

Use this when a visitor asks about separately ticketed event nights at a supported resort, such as Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, Disney Jollywood Nights or Halloween Horror Nights: which nights are on sale or sold out, and the lowest price. Covers up to 60 days. Parky cannot sell tickets.
