Friday Lines?

[clueless.]

Hi everyone! I hope that you all have been having a great summer (and most likely some fantastic KI experiences as well)!

I feel like I asked a variation of this question last year, but the time has come for my annual KI outing - and I was just wondering how wait times/crowds were looking this year! My goal is to make it on a Friday (just the evening, starting around 4 or 5-ish), most likely this coming Friday or even a few Fridays later (I'm trying to avoid Fourth of July weekend and Spirit Song, if I can!).

Would Friday evenings be an okay choice - or do there tend to be long lines? Since I'll only be there for 5 hours or so, I would love to avoid spending over half of that time waiting in line, if possible. And of course, I still have all of your guys' great advice for routes to take/rides to hit from last year, so I think I'm good to go there!

THANK YOU all in advance for your help!

We were there this past Friday and the lines were not too bad early in the day. Once the waterpark closed at 7:00 the lines seemed to fill up and there was a wait for everything then.

Oh, gosh - yeah, I forgot about the waterpark! Were they pretty bad (45 min+)? The last time I went was on a Sunday night, and I remember there being just about minimal wait time for everything except Firehawk/Invertigo.

We didn't do any of the big coasters so I can't tell you much about them. I know the log ride and things like that had about a 30 minute wait or so. Sorry I couldn't be better help.

Remember that WindSeeker is the new ride, and it has been marketed like crazy, so I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the lines are there. Also, on all of my visits Action Zone is usually pretty busy in the evening.

Beastie1980 - No problem! Thanks for both of your responses - I'm planning on squeezing in some of the non-coaster rides too (after all, some of those are the best...), so that was definitely helpful! Glad to hear your daughter enjoyed Backlot... it's a fun ride!

Pillsberry123 - Yes, that's a good thing! I don't know if I'm going to go on it yet... but I'll be heading that way for Vortex, so we'll check out the line and see, I suppose! Thanks for your response.

Okay, I PROMISE to stop (unintentionally!) bumping this thread now - but I think I'm just going to brave it and see how it goes. Hopefully, it doesn't rain too much if I end up going this week... which, actually, could be a good thing, I guess. But yeah, okay. I'm going to stop talking now.
