Next year, second half of May, we are planning a themeparktrip in the Usa.
We intend to drive in the evenings to a hotel near the next themepark.
Here's our preliminary planning :
Fly in on Saturday
A/ Holiday World,Sunday
B/Paramount Kings Island, Monday
C/Cedar Point, Tuesday and Wednesday
D/Geauga lake, Thursday
E/Kennywood : Friday
F/Hershey, Saturday
(2 nights in Hershey : if it was too crowdy on Saturday, we can go back on Sunday morning and drive to Knoebels in the early afternoon. If we were able to do everything on Saturday, we drive to Knoebels on Sunday morning)
G/ Knoebels, Sunday
H/Dorney + Waterpark, Monday
I/ SFGA, Tuesday & Wednesday
J/ Six Flags New England, Thursday
K/Lake Compounce, Friday
fly back from Boston on Friday evening.
Everybody, I need all the advice you have e.g.
- if we go second half of May or early June, do we avoid all holidays like Spring breaks, etc ?
- are the parks crowded during the weekends and weekdays in that period ?
- will we be able to do everything in the 1 or 2 days we are staying at the parks ? Will we be able to combine Dorney and their waterpark on 1 day ?
- hotel suggestions ?
- I guess the most economical will be buying a Maxx pass in PKI and a SF season pass at SFGA ?
- We intend to buy at SFGA a Flash pass gold for 1 day. Good idea ?
- Are there any other 'express passes' available in the other parks mentioned ?
- which restaurants in the themeparks are to be recommended ?
- any other parks I missed in my planning and which are on the way or at least not too far away ?
- any other suggestions or recommendations ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
