  1. It is unlimited for Universal hotel guests, including the day you check in and and day you check out.
  2. I'm interested to hear from a non Fast Lane user who visited the park today. Was it "empty" or "dead?" Squirz, how long do you figure the lines would have been if you'd waited them out without Fast Lane? Thanks!
  3. ^That's ok, I think all of the remaining suspendeds have one flaw or another. Magic's Ninja is a nice little terrain ride, maybe the best of those left, but it ends with a buzz-killing lift into the station. And yes, I was referring to Iron Dragon. It's a little too uneventful for my tastes. Thanks everyone for the advice. You seem to care deeply about KI. I know I'm in for a good time.
  4. On The Beast, the middle row of each individual CAR (not the middle row of the train) will be the smoothest. The back row of each car will be the roughest. Front seat is worth a try, as is (IMO) the second to last row. Got it - the trusty non-wheel seats. How about Racer - is there any air in the front or back? Guilty secret, I'm looking forward to Flight Deck. Not too many suspended coasters left. I hope there's more to it than Draggin Iron.
  5. Ahh, couldn't resist, could you? Magic Mountain's operations are vastly improved the past several years. Admittedly, they blew it with Apocalypse this spring / summer. There's no excuse to run a single train on your practically brand spanking new GCI for what seemed like forever, not even to tear off discontinued theming and a failed audio system. I still give them some credit for trying "immersive" theming. Otherwise, off-season single train ops are vastly better than a closed seasonal park. I'll take it. By the way, the park's new Roller Skater is quite the ride. Wait a sec, I actually meant Green Lantern, the ZacSpin. So intense, it's a good thing it isn't any longer. Do you guys have any favorite seats for The Beast or Diamondback, or any other riding tips? Can hardly wait to give them a try.
  6. ^^That's what I was hoping to hear. Of course, sometimes the best laid plans don't work out the way we hope.. I've been reading about the park. Do I have this right? The low capacity rides are Firehawk (is there anything slower than a Vekoma flier?), Invertigo, maybe Flight of Fear, and The Beast during 1 train ops. Anything else to watch for? And how about CP that week? Thanks!
  7. Hello KI Central. For summer vacation, I'm taking a spin around the area's coaster parks. This will be my first time to KI, and I'm looking forward to finally checking it out after all these years. I appreciate your tips to maximize my limited time at the park. That late in the season, what kind of maximum waits should I expect? I can come by on Sunday or Monday. Since I don't expect to make it back for quite a while if at all, I'd like to get on each of the coasters and if all goes well, grab re-rides on the best ones. Especially Diamondback. I've been reading the big debate about Fast Lane. For a once in a lifetime visit, the difference between waiting 30 or even 20 minutes and hopping on after 5 or 10 is a huge one. On Monday the park is open from 10 (well, 9:30 for Plat Pass) to 8 pm. What's the chance I'll get one of those dream days, when most lines are station waits and it's possible to breeze through the park in a few relaxing hours? By the way, if you come to my home thrill park Magic Mt, that's one of the best weeks of the year. Most of the local schools are already in session, yet the park still has daily operation. X2 wait times get as low as 10-15 minutes. Unheard of! Finally, if anyone here can weigh in about Cedar Point that same week, it would be awesome. CP is open 11-9, the first week with shorter hours. Will the big four still develop those slow, hour plus lines? I hope not! Thanks for reading, and if you ever come out west, it would be my pleasure to return the favor.
