I am going to be at Busch Gardens either July 27 or 28 (mostly depending on weather). I've been reading through the comments and see Falcons Fury is closed (not a huge deal for us). I'm trying to decide if Quick Que is needed. I am totally prepared to buy it but since this is a park I haven't visited in almost 20 years, I wanted to get a regular's thoughts. Thanks in advance.

Vacation the last week of July 2022
disneymoc replied to disneymoc's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I also forgot to mention we did Kentucky Kingdom and Kings Island too. I had planned on doing Eastern PA when COVID hit and threw the whole plans into whack. It's on the list for sure. -
Long time since I've posted but I'm stumped on what coaster trip to take with my daughter this summer. We live in Chattanooga so have done Dollywood, Six Flags Over Georgia, and Carowinds to death. Recently did a trip to Six Flags St Louis and Holiday World. Basically I have the last week of July off and am looking for a trip that has 3 or 4 parks we can hit but won't be crazy crowded. Does anyone have any suggestions? I am willing to fly somewhere if the plane ticket is affordable. Thanks for brainstorming with me.

All of the information being released in this has been a giant cluster. -

Coming straight from Ober Gatlinburg itself tells me more than anyone else says. They would know better than anyone else. -

At least on the new one, you won't feel like you are riding in a cage. -

It is probably just like SDC's Grand Exposition Coaster. https://youtu.be/fcAowIfrd4k -

I forget how technological these coasters are now. -

I have a friend that just returned within the last couple of weeks. He said it was down most of the day when he was there. When it opened back up and was able to ride, he took a seat as a single rider. One of the ride ops sat down next to him. He asked why she was riding and she indicated they have to ride every couple of hours to make sure everything "feels right." She also told him the seat belt on the row in front of them wouldn't fasten and they have been having issues with it all day. This sounds odd to me as I don't understand how a row of seat belts not working in one train would cause massive shut downs unless it is an issue they have had with all of the seats at one time or another. This may be totally unrelated but thought I would share. -

I doubt it. It serves a different purpose being in another area of the park. DW does an awesome job strategically placing things for the kids to do near the big rides. -

I asked Pete Owens if he could confirm what kind of coaster it will be. I will let you know what he shares. -

I'll just leave this here in case it got lost in the other talk. Thanks in advance for any help. -
Carowinds Discussion Thread
disneymoc replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I will be visiting Carowinds for the first time with my 8-year-old daughter August 14 and maybe 15. She is 51 inches tall so we won't be riding the huge coasters. She is extremely interested in all of the coasters she is big enough for and the water park. My question is. Can we cover it all on a Sunday if we are there from park open to close or should we split it up and carry it over to the following Monday? Thanks in advance for any insight! -

Something off topic from Lightning Rod. I will be at the park next weekend. Which day should I do to Splash Country and which day should I go to Dollywood? Sunday, May 22, and Monday, May 23, are the choices. Not used to dealing with potential school trips so wanted some insight. Thanks, everyone.
