Spring Break?

Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.
Postby sixflagsguy5 on March 16th, 2005, 7:04 pm
Is anybody going to any amusement parks for spring break? Also, what parks do you think usually think have the longest lines/crowds during spring break?

I'm going to SFOG and BGT. I've never been to a six flags park during spring break, so I'm curious to see how the lines will be.

last week, on my spring break, I went to the Jack Daniel's amusement park. I got all dizzy and almost threw up, but I had fun. :lol:
I don't have a detonator; its on a timer.
A countdown timer?
No, a count-up timer. It goes from one to explode.

I "might" be going also. I can only hope. I will just have to buy a ticket because my season pass isn't activated yet and I have to activate it at SFGAM! :)

Call the park and ask if you can use your unprocessed voucher to get in at SFStL, when they say yes, make sure you get their name. I know at least one person who's done that before.

As long as you have your voucher and the name of the person, you should get in with no problem.

I don't think they will accept it, even if you call. I found this on the six flags website.


NOTE: Unprocessed season pass vouchers from another park WILL NOT be accepted at Six Flags St. Louis for admission. Season Passes must be presented at all times to gain entrance to the park. Lost processed Season Pass ID Cards may be replaced for a fee with proper identification. Lost unprocessed season pass tickets and vouchers will not be replaced.

Say, I have my renewed Six Flags Great America pass. Can I use that at Six flags St. Louis before SFGam opens for the season?

I just want to make sure. :)

If you weren't joking then yes you can. I'm assuming it came to your house already processed. I did it last year without a problem.

Okay, well I also have my season pass, with my picture on it and everything, but is it processed? I thought you had to use it at Sfgam first...

For SFOG (I'm a fan of that park, so you know I talk to SFOG people too), D Vu' has been not working for two weeks (when the park opened), Mind Bender is having new brakes put in (and thus isn't open yet), and so far the lines have not been big.

Someone went on Arcraphobia 85 times. However, most of the rollercoasters are one train operation. So, I would say it's not going to be that crowded. Remember, they close the lines early. So, remember to get in line for the last ride at least 15 minutes before.

Mind Bender better be open, because that's one of the rides I want to ride most. Acrophobia also looks pretty good. There Dejavu is rarely open from what I have heard, so I don't expect to ride it. If it is open, then that's great and I'll ride it. So do you think that Mind Bender will be open by spring break?

Mindbender- It really depends. I say "no", it won't be open.

DejaVu- It really depends. I say "maybe". It actually has a better chance of being open than Mindbender.

I am going to Disney World (the one in Florida) and also Islands of Adventure. My friend said that he was going the same days that we were which is awsome. So we might meet him there.
It's green. It's blue. It's all over you! Enjoy your ride on Déjà Vu

I'll be at SFoG next weekend (3/26) for the ACE Spring Fling. Hoping for decent weather for the first rides of the season.
