Raptor Front-Line Queue

I was quite dissapointed to discover that the queue for the front line of Raptor has been shortened considerably. Its capacity is now about 10 people, which greatly reduces your chances of getting to ride in the front.

I can appreciate that they had to move the "yellow line" back because of insuranc demands, but did they have to also shorten the front-line queue?

What a bummer.

They put in automatic gates on the Raptor platform. That's why they moved the queue rails back. There would be very little room for the extended front seat queue.

Why do people call these "air gates"? Most are not pneumatically operated and it seems to confuse the guests!

Hey i just have a few quick questions and I didnt want to open up a new thread so i'll just ask them here. I am going to Cedar Point tomorow for my first time in years, and I was wondering if it's possible to ride all the rollercoasters(excluding a few) in one day, or if its even possible to ride them twice or three times. Also i think it is supposed to rain tomorow and if it does I was just wondering which coasters they shut down because of rain. And if they get shut down, will they open back up again as soon as the rain dies down? Thanks

well if all the coasters are open early and there aren't too many people in the park then yes you can. Hit magnum first and then go on to gememni and back that way and by 5 pm you should have all the coasters accounted for.

Shouldn't be much of a problem at all, ESPECIALLY since rain is being predicted. I'm going to be there tomorrow, and if it's raining, I'll hit some of the shows.

Cool, and I guess it's good anyways since rain chases most people out of the park. Does Millennm Force close when its raining?

It depends how hard the rain is coming down and if there is lightning the area.

The best thing about Six Flags "Worlds of Adventure" is that Cedar Point is nearby!

And my friends didn't believe me when I said Raptor got gates...

Even without the extended queue, people still line up where it used to be, so the line is still just as long and takes up as much space as before.
