Belletinker Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 So um, Whilst i was searching google maps and looking at the bone-yard using street view I found that they repainted the 2017 HQS cars to the original crazy legs colors And the capture was made in November of 2018.. What could this possibly mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canobie Coaster Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 The reservation system for Six Flags Fiesta Texas and Six Flags Over Texas went online this morning for highest tier members. Additional levels will be opened up later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 (edited) Good news. For science I gave it a shot to see if it mattered what park was listed as your home park and it doesn't seem to. Any Diamond Elite membership seems to have early access to any park they want (well, the Texas parks but I'm assuming that this will apply everywhere), though I didn't hit the final reservation submission button on the last screen. I am also f*cking shocked that the website is easily handling this and not crashing. Six Flags is exceeding my low expectations.

Canobie Coaster Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 ^ It also appears you can book multiple reservations. I thought they originally said you could book one online per park and additional ones would need to be done over the phone. I was able to get everything booked for my Texas trip with shockingly zero problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sportsdude360 Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I've booked for Sat. June 20th. No problems whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sportsdude360 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 They claim they're going to enforce masks. Reservation needed to enter the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bert425 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 ^ good. i'm still not going to opening weekend. (waiting a few weeks to let them iron out policies/processes) But if SFOF (or SFFT) aren't enforcing masks, I would absolutely provide them profane feedback.

teacherkim Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Will be interesting to see how strict they are and I can tell you after tomorrow what the SFSTL employees are told about mask enforcement. On Wednesday the ride ops at SDC were enforcing masks but not so much walking around the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sportsdude360 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) Some pics I took today. Hand sanitizer stands like these all over the park. A few mask selections were available. I chose this one. It appears that some work had been done on Aquaman. That building off to the left houses the electrical system. The concrete section is part of the water filtration system. Joker was running today. Riddler was down. Catwoman was only loading every other seat. Harley was running at reduced capacity. Aquaman seen from the Oil Derrick. The power building is plainly visable to the right of tower 1. Globe Life Field in the distance. Gold River is still the same condition as before. Texas Giant trains were running at half capacity making for long wait times. Edited June 21, 2020 by Sportsdude360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Thanks for the update. I really like how Aquaman fits in the area. I visited in December when construction walls were up and was a little interested to see how they would squeeze the ride in, but it looks nice. The color scheme is also excellent. Hopefully it can open... this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teacherkim Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 So, I'm curious, particularly since I am still trying to decide if we should reschedule our cancelled spring break trip for August. At SFSTL they are not only leaving every other row empty on coasters but also sanitizing AND running the train empty every other cycle. Is that happening across the chain or just at our park? Checking in with those of you that have been to the Texas parks. It will be a factor in my deciding if we will come down for a visit or perhaps postpone til next year sometime. I'm going to ask in the SFFT thread too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigboy Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 I don't have an answer on that, but if crowds stay as light as they've started out and the inevitable late summer heat slows things down further, I don't know that I would let them doing ^that^ scare you away.

SharkTums Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 ^I had friends there this weekend and there were hour lines for a couple of coasters so I think capacity is something to be concerned about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastercrazy216 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 My partner and I are planning to go to SFOT on Halloween, but concerned it might be crazy busy. Anyone have any experience with the park on Halloween? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any experience with the park on Halloween? it will be crazy busy. either budget for Platinum Flash Pass (and hope they don't sell out). . or just go to people watch, and don't expect to get on any/many rides. the SF Texas parks are already nuts, and its' still 2 weeks to Halloween. Edit to add helpful hint: if you do go, park WAY far back in the lot, even if you're tempted to get a spot up near the front. SFOT lots do *not* exit from the gates you come in thru. Instead, they exit from the back (and side) of the lots. If you're near the front when the park closes? you WILL be stuck in massive traffic jam getting out - and behind everyone that had parked behind you, and is now closer to the exit that opened up behind you.

IronWolfman Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I'm currently thinking of doing a short trip at the beginning of 2021 to SFOT since I'd like to utilize my SFMM membership that I haven't gotten to use yet. I'd be able to get a couple hours at the end of Jan 1st, all of Jan 2nd, & a few hours in on Jan 3rd. For the 2nd, I currently am budgeting for at least the gold Flash Pass, but does anyone know if it'll be busy enough to just go for the Platinum? I also know that SFOT is using a ride reservation system, which I assume is one-at-a-time, does anyone know how the Flash Pass "connects" to that system? I am also curious if anyone has insight on what the weather could be like, as well as rides usually down for maintenance during that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bert425 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 ^I'd look to someone who's more a "regular" at this park for better answers. . but since SFOT went to Year Round Operations (mostly weekends on off months tho), not sure they have a set maintenance schedule anymore. They likely just do what SFFT does, and try to do work during the week when they are only open weekends. but again, look more towards someone who frequents more. .like SportsDude. as to weather? it's Texas. . it MIGHT be in the 60s? SFOT does have some rides that are impacted by windgusts, so keep that in mind (check out the main site to see what else other than Skyscreamer can be affected). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronWolfman Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 ^Thanks for telling me that! I had watched a blog where they had it but hadn't seen any confirming they weren't using it. Thanks Bert425 for the input too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
