    My family took a big trip to Cedar Point this summer, but I couldn't go because I had to work. It was my 10 year old brother's first trip to the park and he is a huge roller coaster fan and was so so excited. They got to the park, rope-dropped Steel Vengeance, but still had to wait in a two hour line. They were standing on the loading station, next in line for it, when a thunderstorm popped up and they had to close the ride. They waited an hour on the loading station, and then the ride operators kicked everyone out of line, so they lost their spot. Everything was closed and there were power surges, so nothing opened in the whole park until 5 pm that day. Steel Vengeance never reopened, Dragster never reopened. They managed to ride Millenium Force and a couple of flat rides but didn't get any other big credits the entire day.
    It was such a bad day that when my dad went to customer service, they gave him free tickets and free parking for a return trip. I was able to go for the return trip, and it was on a crazy busy Saturday during Halloweekends (we never go to parks on weekends but it was the only time we could fit the 8 hour round trip in). When we went to exchange our vouchers for the tickets, they also gave us free fast passes. The park was near capacity, but we managed to ride everything two or three times on a gorgeous fall day. In the end, it was completely worth it (especially for me who didn't have to deal with the first trip!).

      Airtime Thrills Trust me, you DO NOT want to. Halloweekends this year was beyond terrible. Packed to the brim, half of the rides were down off and on because of weather. When you spend $170 on fast lane plus, you generally expect to get on more than 9 rides, but that’s what I got on one Saturday. When there’s a 45 minute wait for rougarou with fast lane, yeah...

      La Ronde is a nice six flag park to be honest, I live far from Montreal but I can say that La Ronde is alright if you have school activities, but for christ sake it is expensive, The Goliath is very nice, The Monster is a very nice wooden coaster, the Vampire is alright, the Cobra is my favorite, the Ednor I still haven't ride it, the Boomerang (I think it is called like that) is rough but has nice loops, I don't remember the others but it is honestly very nice, most of them were open and I still enjoyed my times I go there, so depending on a theme to the other, blame the ride's quality if they have too many issue to be fixed.

The group right behind me got stuck on the tracks and they had to close it immediately again. You guys were quick to act on getting everyone down safely and everyone stuck was off the ride on the ground again within twenty to thirty minutes. Good job. I had a great time.

      ​@@gogy4 AGREED like maybe six flags could plant some trees to break up the wind or something.. but the max wind speed for a ride is set by the manufacture, not the park.
      most rides will actually worn the ride ops that a gust has been read over the maxim safe speed and cannot be safely operated. no park WANTS a ride to go down. and further more (at least with the park I work for BGT) if one ride measures a gust over the thresh hold of another ride then that other ride must shut down, even if its on the opposite side of the park.
      so for example if Sheikra gets a reading of 42mph but Montu is only reading 20mph then Montu will still shut down for weather. all "class 1 rides" at BGT shut down at 40mph so everthing besides the carousel and the train.

      Even the "best" Six Flags parks suffer from their horrible corporate mismanagement. They just seem to take no pride in their parks. I understand why they might not shell out for giga coasters and B&M's when they could just buy equally great rides like RMC's Maxx Force, but honestly I'd rather they just spend that money to make their parks not look like shitholes plastered with advertisements everywhere.

      Crazycoasterfan 123 magic mountain is the only park that you can get a guaranteed good time. That’s because it’s a number game, magic mountain has 19 coasters so even if half of the park is closed you can get 9-10 rides done. Fiesta Texas has under 10 rides and that includes the kiddy coasters. So if even a couple are down it feels like the whole park is closed.

    my worst park experience I've ever had was at Great Adventure (on a marching band field trip). I payed for the flash passes so instead of heading straight for kingda ka, we got them. as we walked up to ka, all our friends had just gotten off of it. spoiler alert, it closed before we got to it. we rode el toro and it was way too hot out to enjoy it, spent an hour trying to look for the lunch pavillion, rode nitro, and at that point the only ride without a 2 hour wait was harley quinn crazy train with a 45 minute wait. for real. in almost eight hours, with the flashpasses, we rode two coasters and a kiddie coaster.

One day they legitimately had only 4 rides open in the park.

    At six flags over Texas, the whole day rides would randomly “shut down” and people would get off, but we met this kid that was by himself at the park and he said that his brother worked there, and they occasionally shut down rides if the line is piling up, and then re open it once enough people leave. It’s actually true, we were on multiple rides when they shut it down, they literally just stood around talking, and then grabbed the speaker and started it again. Stay in your line, the ride doesn’t break down 5 times in one day and continue to work perfectly.

Main thing I did that day: Telling people that Talocan is closed. At one point someone told me that 4 other main attractions, including Taron and Chiapas, were all down as well and River Quest had between 90-120 minute wait all day. Mamba was also down for half an hour in the afternoon (friend of mine worked there that day and came to talk to me every time he had a break, since I was just standing there all day).

I did not know who he was and I work at this park until some of my friends showed me this video. Wonder Woman was off that day because it was getting repairs for its single coaster rails and Superman was down for the dangerous winds. I guess y’all wanna die than care about chur own safety.

    This happened to me as well. I went to six flags fiesta Texas, aware of how much they are hated due to constant ride breakdowns and whatnot. Day started off normal, I rode almost every ride before it started going down hill. First, Batman broke on me TWICE, then poltergeist broke down, the new Dr. Diabolical’s Cliffhanger broke down on me, and then Goliath broke down. When I was waiting in line for Goliath to open back up, hoping that I wouldn’t have to leave with boomerang as my last ride, they told me rather rudely “You need to leave right now” like I just committed a crime at the park. There is something totally wrong with the maintenance here, I have never experienced so many breakdowns in one day, even at universal studios. And the weather was perfectly fine that day. It was just cloudy no rain at all.

The biggest sins you can do when visiting fiesta texas is going on a busy day, going on a bad weather day to include heat/wind/rain, and not commiting to a line. If you line hop all day hoping for the lines to get shorter, you will be disappointed and end up wasting more time than if you had just waited in a line.

      SFFT is better but be aware what wind can do to your experience there

    Yeah, I’ve been going here for 10 years, and the operations have always been awesome, the rides were always open, and I had always had a great time. But in 2019 something just changed. I hope that the park will get back to “normal” after Covid in terms of fast ops and stuff

    Hi, Texan here! I recommend going to Six Flags in the winter!
    I know it sounds bad due to the cold, but the cold is actually your friend in this case! Trips to the park during January-March are usually very good as the park is almost fully empty (due to families not wanting to go out in the cold), and wait times go down to 5-10 minutes! (Sometimes even less if you get there when it opens!) Closures are also suprisingly rare during those times! (It stared light raining on my trip but they kept the rides open and safe, so I still got to have fun, albeit a little wet!)
    I went yesterday (Jan 4th) and was able to ride six coasters (Goliath, Dr. Diobolical, Superman, Batman, Joker, Iron Rattler, Road Runner), almost all of them extreme and/or very popular! (Not including the fact that I rode 3 of those six twice in the same trip, so 9 rides in 4 hours total!)
    Trips to Six Flags can suck at times (especially during the summer, daammnnn you Dallas...), but if you know when to go, you'll end up having the time of your life there! :)
