kiruler102 Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 Longest i EVER waited was 3 1/2 hours for SOB opening day in 2000. Full queue and line to thunder alley. Totally worth it AT the time. Now i only wait a hour to 2 hours depending on the ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcgoble3 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I waited 7 hours for Firehawk. LET DOWN! It was opening day for it as well...I am kinda sad that I waited that long. Which opening day? 2007 at KI, or the original opening at Geauga (sp?) Lake? (And yes, I realize I'm responding to a post over three years old. ) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdude86 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 For a new ride I'd wait 2 to 3 hours depeding on the ride. Otherwise I probably woulnd't want to do nything voer an hour. It depends a bit on the ride. Something real short or not too thrilling I wouldn't wait more than 30 for probably. But a big coaster or immersive dark ride like Harry Potter or Spiderman I'd probably go to 90 minutes. I wish parks like KI would put in single rider lines like most of the big theme parks have. Helps capacity and provides a quick line to get onto rides if you don't care about riding with a specific person. I went for the opening of Harry Potter at Universal and all the lines were close to 2 hours or more for most rides, HP was about 3-4 all day. My friend and I did single rider for everything and almost all of the rides were 5-10 minute waits that way. We rode HP 4 times in under an hour while the regular line was 4 hours long.

The Interpreter Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Fast Lane. Big reason that single rider lanes at Kings Island are exceedingly unlikely. Other than lost sales and profits, ther's nothing in it for Cedar Fair. They will be happy to sell you near front of the line access. Why on earth would they now give that away? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upstop Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I waited 2 months for my first Outer Limits: Flight of Fear ride....my first trip.....wait time was 8 hours +....my second trip the parking area was full all the way to Western Row Road...my third Paramount had scheduled a company picnic park sellout (in the middle of summer, no less)...two months later after several "ain't no way I'm waiting in that line!" trips, waited 6 hours from about where WindSeeker's entrance is located. Now, I don't do lines. Anything over 40 minutes, including Fastlane days..."nope",,,, I just do my ERC and leave on most occasions... I will, however, wait for Banshee....unless Fastlane is in force....otherwise no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedevariouseffect Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I'll just continue to ride Banshee's virtual pov and eventually real HD pov... Sign.. But you all will have snow and yucky weather for two years, I will not..so I guess there's a trade off 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I did not have snow or yucky weather in Atlanta. I couldn't wait to get out of that place. Let it snow Let it snow Let it snow! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedevariouseffect Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Yeah I wasn't a fan of Atlanta though, pretty from the air, but the airport and surrounding area match my dread of flying into ATL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Flying out of there beats living there, for me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
