Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
thepoint4life23 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Theming around the ride would slow down opening. its stuff they can do between testing and inspecting and what not. -
I think we would have a better understand how everything will work by next week. Your question is valid and I would also like to know. Its harder to leave my family and stand in a 30-45 min line why they might be doing something way more fun with out me. I looked at VIP tour pricing and that might be in your budget but not for me.

Waldameer Discussion Thread

How busy on a Saturday do they get. Just trying to figure out how long the lines for the few bigger rides would be. Just trying to see if I could knock out the 3 or 4 roller coasters in a few hours. -

They started testing the tilt track over the weekend what the means for a timeline no idea. -
Just trying to knock some of the parks left around me. The two bigger ones would be Six Flags Great America and Six flags great Adventure. Zach had a review I think Zach had a trip report from last year that kind of made me not as interested in going and spend a lot of money to get to the park. Back on Topic Vekoma posted a video of Iron Rattler testing. Sure does look like a massive ride. With some solid theming on the tower. As Cedar points just looks like an Oil rig in the middle of the park.

I feel like this thing needs to be running for the next 16 hours if not more up to the next Thursday. Then do one more final train check -
Canada's Wonderland Discussion Thread

I really need to make it up there in a the next few years. I just know the park is so so Busy -
Looks like it would take about 3 hours round trip to get to and from the Park. So That is gonna take a chunk of your day. I mean im sure its possible but seems like a lot of planning and hoping all goes well. I mean i was thinking about doing something like this for Great America. Fly in from Ohio rent a car drive then fly back home at the end of the day.

Am I being dumb? Road trip '25
thepoint4life23 replied to KBrylczyk's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
So looks like the first half is heavy driving a 4 hour then a 6 hour trip. I think last August should be fine if you can work it around the parks calendars. I would love to do a trip like this some day. Mine would need to be more the middle of the country as i have done most the midwest. Beside the two bigger six flags parks. -

Siren's Curse track work is not done yet. I would say with in a week or so. Could you do a trip say the last week of August or like the 22nd to the 29th something like that. The bigger parts still have weekly operations. You would just need to book end Michigan's Adventure and Waldameer for the weekend days. How many miles is a trip like this. Michigan Adventure is pretty far from everything else. -
I look as this time as early summer so it wont be as busy as July. I think Michigan schools will just be getting out around that time and I think New York is still in or about to finish the week of your visit. Sunday will be less busy then Sunday and could see it getting less crowed as the day goes on. People who stayed on Property might start leaving to get back home. Weather can always play a factor could be amazing could just be crap. If the weather looks crappy on Sunday might get a low crowed afternoon or any of your days really. You will have more then enough time to relax and still ride everything you want. Last point is we still have no idea when Siren's Curse will be opening. Just something to think about.

The 15th to the 19th should be more then enough time to knock out all the rides you want. Your legs will be more tired then anything. Its a pretty big park. You might as well spend the money on a Fast lane for one day and not an extra hotel stay. You can knock a few rides out the first hour of the day or the last few hours of the night on the weekdays. I think after your first day you can get a good idea what ride you want to go wait for first thing in the morning. Like one day try to do one or 2 rides on MF the next day get in line and wait the hour for Steel Vengeance to open Things like that. A week Day if your lucky could do Maverick and Steel Vengeance in the first hour of opening then Sky hawk, Can knock the back part of the park out pretty quickly
