Opening day

I know there already was a topic for lines, but does anyone have any clue how long lines will be opening day?

Mostlikely they will be pretty long... Checkout some past threads.

I remember this thread. The lines (theoretically) cannot be over 2 hours for Millennium Force. They will probably be around 1-1.5 hrs. I think that you guys have NEVER been to CP on opening day before. The lines are always around average.

I agree with the Tomato, I don't think the lines will be ridiculous for the most part. But you know MF is gonna draw a huge crowd. As much as I want to go on MF I will never go to CP on opening day again. I talked about this in another thread and maybe it just happened the one time but I went opening day one time and half of the rides weren't working properly or weren't working at all. I was really bummed out. It was like they didn't test the rides till that day or something. But again maybe it was just an isolated incident. I have to give CP the benefit of the doubt because after all they are CP!

Were you at the same opening day I was? I found everything to be going smoothly the last few years. They test the rides well before opening day. Heck, many of the coaster trains are already back on track.

It was a while ago. Think I went opening day in 1991 when the MS opened. Ever since then I was always afraid to go the first day. But if you say everything ran smooth that last few years I guess I should give it another shot. But I can't this year I'll be on my honeymoon when the park opens. Probably should of just went to CP and stayed at the Breakers instead of Hawaii. Would have been a lot cheaper. Lol! But we'll go the week we come back.

I thought the last few opening days weren't that bad at all. I remeber that when Power Tower opened I had three or four rides on it in the first 45 minutes or so after the ride opened. The same with Magnum last year on opening day, I think I had about 5 or six laps in the first hour.

If you get there early the park is pretty dead for the first two hours. Last year a friend and I rode basically everything we wanted to the first three hours. After that things got a little hectic but not all that bad. It's nice to go opening day and look at how clean the park is after months of preperation.
