Enterances to the point

Which gate is easiest to use for platinum pass members to get in quick for early entry? Which has the shortest line/less crowd to get through to show the pass? If I go through the main gate is there a way to get around the big mob waiting infront of Donut Time. How do you reach each gate/get dropped off? *What time should I show up on opening day? (and a little off topic but, do you think it is possible to ride MF and still be the first public ride on WT or Mantis)

Thank You!

I say going in the gate by the Cadillac Cars and the theater where the ice rink is. (Good Time Theater?) It's by Famous Daves.

Are you staying at a resort? You didn't mention that you were, so I'll assume you're not. I'd say go in through the Marina Gate. It's usually the least crowded and is still easy/quick to get to (the Beach Gate is also pretty dead usually, but requires a lot more effort to get to if you're not staying at an on-Point resort).

If you go through the front gate, you'll need to wade through the mob around Donut Time. The earlier you get there, the less wading you'll have to do.

Opening day has been pretty busy the last few years, but weather has had a lot to do with that. Also, since the park is opening later than normal this season, it's possible it could be much more crowded than those past few years, but again, weather has a lot to do with that. I'd say showing up any earlier than a couple hours before 9:00 is a waste of time that could be spent sleeping. Even an hour should be more than enough.

You can walk from the main parking lot to the Marina Entrance if you want to. In order to get to the Resort Entrance or Beach Entrance, you'll have to drive around Perimeter Road (the one passes right by Millennium Force's first hill) and park in the Soak City Lot. If you decide to go through the Beach or Resort Entrance, use the toll booth farthest to the left (although I'd strongly suggest the Marina Entrance if you're planning on going to go to Millennium Force first).

If you run straight to Millennium Force and are get on quickly, it's completely possible to be on the first ride of either Wicked Twister or Mantis. Those aren't rides most people wait around to open, but the closer to 10:00 it is, the longer their lines are going to get.

Hope this helps, and have a great opening day!

Thanks! So I decided to get dropped off at the main gate and then walk over to the Marina (doesn't look to bad to walk right?) I think I will arrive around 7:45-8:00 dash to MF and then run back and Depending if I have time go to WT or MaXair but if not much time left I'll go to Mantis.
