A Few General Park Questions

OK, I have a few questions. I am taking a tripto CP on Monday June 12.

1. How early will they let me into the gates to do the "Millenium Force Dash"

2. How crowded are mid-June Monday's

3. I am being dropped off at the park. Is there a drop off lane like at SFO, or some sort of way to be dropped off, and then picked up?

4. All the rides will be open, right!

Hey Jeff, how's that FAQ thread working out?? ;)

You are new to the message board ? No one knows what the lines will be like on any dayor month. The gates open at 9 and the rides open at 10. The rides should all be open unless there are some mechanical problems. I don't know about the drop off thing.

Wait so you could get there at 8:00-9:00 or earlier, Then you wait for the gates to open. after that you run to the ride. then you wait for an hour to ride to open. Is that how it goes??????

yep, that's how it goes..but look at it this way..either way, you would STILL have to wait for that hour in line no matter what time you get in line. when i did it this way, though, i got 2 laps in on the Force BEFORE NOON..third train out for the day....ride early, ride often.

can't believe they cancelled the Simpsons after all these years...now look sad and say D'OH!!

The lines for Millenium Force are so long you pretty much need to be at the park at 4:30 am to have any chance of riding. They have special entrance gates for guests who are riding Millenium Force so they can get in at 6:00 am to start waiting in what will inevitably be a 7 or 8 hour line.

On Mondays in June, many rides are closed, unless the moon is gibbous and the ghostly wind of the old Cyclone whispers sweet nothings in Kinzel's ear, in which case many rides will be open.

Finally, the only drop-off point is at the back of the parking lot, towards the causeway. From there, you have to take the tunnel underneath the park to the hotel entrance, where you can rent a helicopter that will dangle you over Millenium Force in a special vertical line.

If you want to ride the MF first I recommend going in at the Marinea entrance. This will save you about 1/4 mile hike down the causeway with the rest of the crowd. Have your ride drop you off at the parking lot by Blue Streak (across from pet check) and pick you back up there later.Then you will have just a short hike to the gate (across from the CP post office).

I have a question, too:

Are there coupons off the admission price (adult admission) available on-line?

To get into the lot by Blue Streak, my ride will not have to pay for the parking, right?

Thanks for the "Help" Harley.

Ive been down that tunnel harley, but through the years they got rid of all the special effects. Now its just a boring long dark tunnel.

JW, that's because you've cut down on the drugs a little too much over the years.
