I'm hoping to show up after work, hope it doesn't get too crowded!

Not too crowded yet. Caught the end ofor nine ert. So far Diamondback x3 and chic Fil a for an early lunch. AAA is having some kids day. Not sure what that is about

Invertigo was closed, at least it was 20 minutes ago. Bat is sitting at a 15-20 minute wait.

This might sound crazy to say (given that no one likes long line waits), but it warms my nostalgic heart when a ride like 'The Bat' can have a 30 minute wait. Harkens me back to when it was 'Top Gun' and the shiney new toy in the park.

Granted the wait then would have been two hours.

Are they just running 1 train on it?

Does that in include the 15 minute walk to the station?

That long queue was actually backing up for the first time I can recall in years.

45 minutes for Vortex!?!? The most I have ever waited is 25, and when that happened the line was out by Juke Box Diner. I'm visualizing a 45-minute wait for Vortex would probably have the line for it go past Dodgem or something. [emoji14]

Remember the days when that was the norm for Vortex. Lol

Any thoughts on the crowds for this weekend?  I realize the 4th is next week - but Friday/Saturday early or Sunday late?

Pretty sure its supposed to rain this weekend.  If it does we will be heading to the park on Saturday.

If it is like last weekend,  then it will be crazy full.

It's also Military free days the 1st-4th making it even busier

Just waited fifteen minutes to take my 97th ride ever on Diamondback. Now I am in line for Mystic Timbers, which looks to be the same wait.

Sounds like another amazing day!  Yesterday was awesome!!

Today is just as awesome as yesterday was! I walked onto Vortex for all eight of my rides this evening!

I didn't realize it started on the first!  Thanks for the info!

If you all want to go to KI this weekend and are willing to risk getting rained on, today may be the day considering the vast cloud cover and the fact that the Military promotion starts tomorrow.

Wait times have been minimal today. Mystic Timbers is currently about 10min.

@starlitfirethank you a ton for that I took your advice and went today for the first time this season and there was almost no rain luckily and the park was so empty. I couldn't get to ride mystic timbers because I was with some cousins who didn't want to, but I still had a great time!

About 9 minutes till tolls open  I figured it would be busy today, so I got here early. Anyone else from here planning to be at the park today?

I was thinking of coming down today. Just got up and moving around. Do you mind posting it private messaging me a crowd update in a little while?

Sure. Crowds aren't too terrible right now. It's not even 11 and I did Delirium (ERT), FoF (x3!), Zephyr, Vortex and just got off Beast.

The coasters at Six Flags New England have been 0-15 minute waits, despite a seemingly full parking lot.

The waterpark? There were still switchbacks full of people waiting to enter as of 5pm.

^What exactly is your itinerary?  From KI to Montreal to Massachusetts?  

 

KI until close Friday, La Ronde 2pm - close Saturday, Great Escape 10:30am-noon today, SFNE 3:30pm-close today, Lake Compounce & Quassy tomorrow.

Consider me jealous that you get to ride Superman and Boulder Dash in the same trip. 

KI until close Friday, La Ronde 2pm - close Saturday, Great Escape 10:30am-noon today, SFNE 3:30pm-close today, Lake Compounce & Quassy tomorrow.

Safe travels, pal! Can't wait to hear about all of your adventures!!

Side note, lines are longish today. I waited almost an hour for Mysti, but The Beast is moving quickly. I'd say by the time I get on it will be a total of 25-30 minutes.

Wait... and you'll be at KI on the 4th (I think?)? If so, wow!!!! Still, wow! That's jam packed w/coasters! Interested to hear about La Ronde, Great Escape (I went there in the early 2000s) and of course Boulder Dash! Stay safe and stay hydrated with some good ol' H2O.

^ I wouldn't recommend our itinerary to most people. This trip is all sorts of crazy, even by my standards.

I'm not positive about KI on the 4th; it will depend on the weather and how exhausted I am at the time.

Any idea what the crowds look like today?  I'm thinking of heading up tonight after work.
