I have a few questions about memberships to Six Flags. Am I reading this correctly?: I get a Gold Season Pass and Gold Meal Season Pass for $13.99 a month for 12 months? ($167.88 total, before fees) Or Is it going to be $5.99 + $13.99 for a total of $19.98 per month? ($239.76 total, before fees) I ask because in the past Six Flags has charged interest on their monthly payment plans and if I buy the passes outright, it comes to a total of $156.98 (before fees) which is substantially less the $19.98 per month price. I just want to make absolutely sure what I'm getting into.

Assigned seating isn't a horrible idea when done correctly (Disney and Universal). It really boggles my mind why parks would implement such an unfriendly policy. I was at the park yesterday, and I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this here, but Apocalypse now has trim brakes on the final turn leading into the brake run. Doesn't affect the ride, but thought it was interesting.

You have a few options: Option 1: Take LA Metro Bus 460 from Disneyland or Knotts to 7th Street Metro Station in Downtown LA. Transfer to the LA Metro Redline Subway to North Hollywood. At North Hollywood Station transfer to Santa Clarita Transit bus 757 to McBean Transit Center. At McBean Transit Center transfer to either Bus 7 or 3 to Six Flags. The above option will ensure you get to Six Flags before opening and also will allow you to stay later than any other public transit option. Option 2: Take Orange County Metrolink train from either: Buena Park, Fullerton, or Anaheim Station to either Newhall Station or Santa Clarita Station. From Newhall Station transfer to bus 1, 2, 4, or 14 to McBean Transit center. At McBean Transit Center transfer to bus 3 or 7 to Six Flags. From Santa Clarita Station transfer to bus 501 to Six Flags. (Weekdays only) With the Metrolink option, the only way you will be able to get to the park before opening is to go during the week. If you do use Metrolink during the weekend, you will not get to the park until at least 1 or 2pm.

All walls were gone. All they had were barricades set up where the walls were. As for season passes, they were visually making sure you had a season pass card, the only problem with that is that all season passes look the same. So without a scanner, there was no way to block the lowere tiers of passes out of the preview. The only time they scanned my card to make sure I was a gold pass holder was in the morning before early entry.

Got 15 rides in today, would have love to have gotten more but 1-train operations happened. The ride is fantastic! Airtime all over the place, love the hill leading into the 'high five" . The racing and dueling aspect of this ride is SOOOOO COOOL! I'm glad I got to experience that aspect of the ride before the ride ops stop caring about syncing trains. Really looking forward to see just how much more intense this ride will get once it starts operating in SFMM 100+ degree summers.

Correct. I know all the advertisements are touting this as a new "ride", which is so incredibly misleading. The only place where the park is actually up front and honest is on the actual attractions web page on the parks website: http://www.universalstudioshollywood.com/attractions/fast-and-furious-supercharged/?view=2
