Six Flags America Tips

[selfyselfy]

Hi Guys,

 

Me and my girlfriend are heading to the USA on Sunday for a five week trip of sightseeing and coaster riding and I wanted to ask if anyone had any tips for a day at Six Flags America.

 

We will be heading to the park next Tuesday 14th June. The main things I was wondering are:

 

1) If we get there at opening where should we head first?

2) How busy do you think it will be on this day?

 

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

I was just there yesterday, and though next week might be more crowded now that more schools are out, the good news is the place was near-empty. As in: six S:ROS rides, three in the front row, within an hour. We were there the week before, too, and then they opened the park at 9:30 and held everyone at the plaza till 10. Yesterday, they didn't open the gates till 10, though...so who knows?

 

First off, head for Batwing...it has slower loading times than S:ROS and is just around the corner from Superman. Then S:ROS before things heat up. If it's like yesterday, you may not even have to leave the train to re-ride. If it's hot enough and you want to ride Penguin's Blizzard River, I'd suggest that next: dispatch times are abysmal. After that, you should be able to ace the rest of the park unless it's jammed.

 

If you want to ride the Typhoon Sea Coaster (which is really cool for a flume ride) note that it's supposed to open at noon, but didn't start taking on passengers yesterday til 2-ish.
