East Coast Six Flags Discount Season Pass

[Ibztone]

I was looking at the Six Flags America website wishing I could meet up with everyone on here on the 21st and realized that a season pass is only $69.99 for a premium play pass (a regular play pass is only $49.99!) when Six Flags Great Adventure is charging $89.99 for the same thing. If you order the pass from either site you still get access to both parks. I just wanted to post this to help anyone out. I live in NJ and I can't get over the fact that they charge $15 to park a car, not even Continental Airlines Arena is that bad.

yeah but the catch is that your pass must be processed at the park where you bought it first. So if you live in NJ, you have to visit SFA before you can visit any other Six Flags parks.

 

Also, I think I remember someone saying that you can't buy a pass online if you live further than 300 miles away from the park........Does anyone know if this is true?

You are correct, sir.

Oh really? That's annoying with the 300 mile rule. Could you still buy one in person? Like say you met up with everyone the 21st at SFA, could you purchase one then?

If that's true, that bums me out. I was planning on getting my pass at The Great Escape, but I live like 320 miles away from it.

"10.  I entered my ZIP code as requested, but received a message telling me I cannot  

       purchase a season pass for the park I want. Why?

For security issues with online purchases, your zip code must be within 300 miles of the park. If you live outside of that range, please purchase your pass directly from the park or select a nearby location."

 

That is from the Six Flags Customer Support FAQ questions. So technically I think you could purchase it in person which would make sense considering you need to activate it in the park you purchase it at.

 

Edit: I just google mapped Northern NJ to SFA and it's only 230 miles away so it still would work with buying it online. I also was able to put my zip code it and make it all the way to payment. So the only hassel would be having to drive to SFA to get it activated.
