TIPS

↑ top

Plan to start your day at attractions farthest from the main entrance. Also, ride your favorite rides when the park first opens, or after 5 pm.
To save time, eat at non-traditional lunch and dinner hours.
Bring a jacket or sweatshirt for cool mornings and evenings. You can store it in the lockers near the main entrance.
Arrange a meeting place and time in case your party becomes separated. Cell phones make reuniting a lot easier nowadays.
Consider purchasing a season pass. Many early bird specials include perks like free parking and access to seasonal events like fright night and others.

Things to know before you go

Okay, we visited Six Flags with our 6 & 4 year old for the first time today. First, PARKING is expensive at $15 per car. There is a continually running tram to and from the park, but you could easily walk it in less than 5 minutes. Next, ADMISSION - We bought the season pass. $69.99 per person for unlimited access for the year. That will pay for itself in 2 visits. You pay at the gate then you need to go into a second queue to get your actual season pass. 15 minutes or so. Next, GATE/SECURITY - No outside food or drink is allowed. I wish I knew this, as they made me throw all of the snacks & drinks I brought away. What is this, the airport? I found this extremely annoying. Then they charge you prices that are even more than Disney for food ($40 for a pizza? I'm not even kidding). So I'd advise either eating before you go or stashing snacks cleverly. You can bring water in, but that's all. Next, best to bring a stroller with little ones, but you can rent the same kind you can at Disney for $15. Next, RIDES - Lots of mega thrill rides/coasters and lots of kiddie rides (Cute rides in Wiggles World and Looney Tunes World). Not a whole lot in between. Those that are family oriented are either spinny and disorientating or ones that get you wet. But overall a wide variety. Extremely strict on height requirements, and rule heavy on the whole. DRINKS - there are clean water fountains at all restrooms. Or, you can purchase a large souvenir drink for $12.99 and then refill for free that day and then .99 the rest of the year. It's all soda though, so I'd bring water if possible.
