[tgnosis]

Hey! im from Buenos Aires and today i bought my flight ticket to USA. Im goin with my friends to New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and maybe Las Vegas.

I would loooooooooooooooove to go to every theme park but im not goin alone and my friends they are not roller coaster freeks as Iam...

Well, I know im going to Six Flagas Magic Mountain, Disneyland (it includes two parks) Universal Hollywood and Six Flags Great Adventure.

Is it a good month to visit? I wont go to ANY of these parks on a weekend, wich days do you recomend me to go ? when is it the universal's horror nights??

How much money would i spend if I go two days to Cedar Point OR to Busch Gardens,W. from New York?

thanks guys!

In October there are a lot of Halloween Events that can make the parks very crowded. Also, some of the parks are Friday - Sunday only so you may have to go on a weekend.

I went and looked it up for you and it looks like sfmm will be open Friday-Sunday that month except for the 14th of October which is a Monday so plan for this. Also, if you go to horror nights at universal make sure you buy front of the line or the vip package because the lines can be just insane.

Thanxs! I`ll try to be there that monday...

Do you know why they open specifically that day? its weird if they only open friday-sunday.

Do you think i`ll be able to do Disneyland and CAdventure in one day only? I did it with disneyland paris. I did all the good rides from both parks in one day and even ride like 4 times rockandroller coaster.

If you're really looking into visiting GAdv, BGW, or CP, those parks are weekend only operation in October. Not only that, but all three of those parks are generally far apart (looking at a 6 hour drive between NYC and BGW, plus you'll have to deal with tolls and possible traffic). Google Maps says its a 7 hour drive to Cedar Point from New York.

 

If you're gonna be in New York, you're better off checking out just Great Adventure.

 

Those parks will most definitely be crowded for Halloween events. Fridays and Sundays are generally good for crowds.

You can do Knott's during the day when haunt is going on and those days are generally pretty empty.
