I'm about the same height but closer to 260lb and I fit on all the rides I go like going on. If there are certain rides you're thinking of list them and I'll tell you how well I fit on them, as I don't go on all the thrill rides.

On another note, I have 3 FL+ passes from renewing my family's season passes for next year. My kids are 4,6,10 so they don't make use of them. I emailed customer service and they said I can use those FL+ passes on other guests as long as they are with me... but I can't use them on myself (doesn't make sense to me but whatever). Anyone interested in going before the park closes? I'll give a free FL+ pass.

I took my kids tot he kid's section of the park yesterday, and learned a big lesson. Parents are the worst, and most obvious line jumpers... ever. One parent and kids will be on a ride while the other parent will line up for another ride and as soon as the kids get off that ride they push through a queue of 30 kids or so and hop on the next ride. One kid with his dad got off Peanuts 500 and the kid's mother was in line with their other kid and was going to get in on the next change. The dad literally pushed through everyone and handed the child to the mom to go on. I must say, though, the ride attendant recognized the kid and refused to allow her to ride again. The mother argued and argues but ultimately relented. Then they tried again 10 mins later. Not sure if they were successful. Anyone else notice this problem with parents? Sorry if it seems like griping, it just happened so much yesterday I was frustrated because I make my kids follow the rules.

Was at the park today and have started noticing what seems to be a trend.. an ever increasing length of FL queues. Am I the only one noticing that?

Personally I do the low rider occupancy rides first before the lines build on them. If you're trying to get coaster credits that means going on Wonder Mountain Guardian, Thunder Run, The Fly, and The Bat first. Even though you have a FL+ pass I suggest you get on Yukon Striker early. If it's a busy day the FL+ queue for that ride can extend out of the line and well into the park path, and you'll be waiting a long while, nullifying the advantage of the pass. After that it's all good.

My family of 5 each have seasons passes that we will be renewing for next year, so we will be getting the free bring a friend ticket and FL+ to use before the end of this year. The thing if my kids are 10,6,4 (all go on kiddie rides only) and my wife doesn't go on rides, so 4 of the 5 BAF and FL+ tickets will potentially go to waste. Does anyone have any experience, or suggestions in getting Wonderland to agree to let me use some of those tickets on someone else so I can actually make use of them. I know the ticket fine print says non-transferrable, and likely all I can do is plead to customer service asking them.

Continuing on with your random post, here's another example. A Canadian police thriller show called Flashpont filmed an episode at Wonderland... with a father and his stolen baby running up to the top of the lift hill of Flight Deck.

When does Wonderland typically make their announcement for next year's additions, and start that season pass renewal promo where you get a free FL+ pass?

I'd rather be on Flight Deck then Time Warp. My conspiracy theory is that the Zamperla coaster is partially funded by Bayers as people will probably need to buy some Aspirin after their head being based around on the ride.

Was at the park today. First time in the splash works section. Was in line with my 4 year old for a ride on the lazy river, and three guys... probably in early 20s... exited the disembark area, and walked 10 footsteps and then hopped the line to join friends who were waiting in line. They were also fully clothed with their pants drooping and underwear exposed. Right behind me was a lady criticizing the way they run the lazy river, saying that it's "stupid" people have to give up their dinghy and get only one turn. They should be able to stay on and not have to give it up, citing Wild Water Kingdom as a comparison... conveniently forgetting you have to pay for dinghies to use on the rides. There are a few free ones circulating around the river but you have to wait a long time to get one. Otherwise a great day at the park with what was a daddy & son day. I must say I under-rated the fun at the water section of the park.

Why was it open after park close time?

Hey did anyone go to the park the Monday of the Raptors parade? Just wondering how busy the park was...

I have personally found the park app to be completely useless and inaccurate when it came to wait times... and it only gave wait times for a relatively small portion of the rides.

Hey guys, thinking of taking the kids to the park on Sunday for Father's Day, and taking advantage of the early ride time in the kids section (we have season passes). According to the website, the section open early is Kidzville, but only lists 4 rides: Flying Canoes, Flying Eagle, Treeetop Adventure, and Sugar Shack. However, when the Planet Snoopy section opens early on every other Sunday it lists 8 rides. My question is if it really is just 4 rides they open up an hour early or if more are open... theoretically those 4 rides can be done in 15 minutes or so... so then we wait 45 mins for another ride?

Sure you can get them done in one day (taxi jam) not included. Get to the park before 10am and go to the ones not on the fast lane first, like fly, thunder run. Wonder mountain guardian, silver streak and ghost coaster.

If you have the fastlane plus pass, head to the Bat and Fly as they don't have fastlane access. Also Wonder Mountain Guardian and Thunder Run don't have fastlane plus so try them, too... Thunder Run tends to build an insane lineup very early on and it stays that way. Pretty much all the good flat rides have fastlane access so you're good there.

FYI wonderland is offering the same deal... up to 2 fast lane plus passes for $49.99 today only for season pass holders. It's their cyber Monday deal. If interested snatch em up.

Well in my case I have a family of five and none of them go on any of the adult rides. Unlike last year my job won't allow me to go during the week therefore limiting when I can go, so I don't have the option of simply going back the next day, duh.

Did any of you take advantage of that special flash offer the park offered around Nov 13? You can buy up to two $50 fast lane plus passes per seasons ticket holder to be used anytime next season up until Labour Day. Only lasted a day or two so if you blinked you missed it.

I'm at the park today. Great day to be here. No lines for pretty much anything. Here is the view of the drop hill construction of Yukon Striker from the Behemoth station. Also noticed a neat sign while waiting to get on Vortex. They did a competition with their sister coaster at King's Island... or is it Dominion? Whichever one has the suspended coaster called the bat.

Holy crap... was going to take my family this weekend because of the park offer to get in at 9am and we were gonna spend the day in the kids zone. Now I'm reconsidering!

It's not just people hopping into the queue from outside the railing. There isn't a single day in Wonderland (probably most parks) where people enter the queue and push through saying "excuse me" to reach a buddy or family member already in it. Some people will confront them but from my experience that is rare nothing really changes anyway.

Hey guys, I'm thinking of taking my family to Splash Works for the day tomorrow (Thursday). How much are the cupboard rentals? Can you open them more then once? Do they rent out life jackets? If so how much? Thanks.

No... they definitely won't be adding the brand new coaster to Fastlane Plus. Why would they ever do such a thing? Can tell if you're being sarcastic or not but if you're not why wouldn't they include it? They did for Behemoth and Leviathan. It'll help sell more of those expensive tickets.

cool, i might try to skip the morning of work and go. I didn't get the email (story of my life) and i looked on the season passholders portal and there is no mention of it. i also noticed that they have bring a friend tickets again which had been reduced to selected days, mothers day and fathers day, but it appears to be all season again? wow, wish i knew earlier. Anybody else want to go and see them unveil the new coaster (hopefully not known as ZIz)? I have glasses and a green hat. I plan on going. See you there? As far as I know bring a friend tickets have been there all season but sometimes they had promotions for reduced price tickets. I also find that when I check my settings the box that's supposed to be checkmarked so I get updates is often unchecked even though I know I did select it.
