May 29, 200719 yr We have been planning our KI trip for a while now, and only one week to left to go! I would love any suggestions on long lines, and how the crowd is this time of the year. Hopefully going on a Monday will help. Also seen in extended forecast a 30% chance of rain, so I am hoping for the best!

Hopefully going on a Monday will help. Also seen in extended forecast a 30% chance of rain, so I am hoping for the best! Obviously the longest line will be Firehawk. You'll probably wait about 3 hours for that one. Flight of Fear may have a longer than normal line due to its proximity to Firehawk. The Vortex is usually a fast moving line so don't be scared off by long lines there. The Beast is also another fast moving long line IMO.
May 29, 200719 yr Well beings that your going on a weekday but most schools will be out by then I would expect medium crowds with waits around 20-30 minutes for most rides.
May 29, 200719 yr Author Thanks! That gives me some sort of idea of what lines will be like. Hopefully we can beat a lot of crowd to Firehawk, we plan on being there when the park opens. But I guess every other coaster fan had that idea too so yeah, I'll be waiting forever.
May 29, 200719 yr Yup, it should be a pretty good day at the park for you. Maybe a little crowd, but not much of one. Hope you have a great time.
May 29, 200719 yr Just remember, if the new inclement weather policy is still in effect, if it does rain, the coasters will not operate. . .
May 29, 200719 yr I don't know. I do know that reportedly even Scooby and the Haunted Castle closed during light sprinkles.
May 30, 200719 yr Shouldn't this policy be posted on their website? Because on the website it states that most rides will operate rain or shine... Shouldn't they state that the coasters will close down if it rains?

Shouldn't they state that the coasters will close down if it rains? Probably so, but this seems be new policy since the Magnum incident of last weekend. Updating the website is probably a low priority compared to implementing the policy.

May 30, 200719 yr The park spokesman is quoted in The Sandusky Register as saying it was caused by "moisture."
May 30, 200719 yr The park spokesman is quoted in The Sandusky Register as saying it was caused by "moisture." Didn't Beast do something similar in rain? Seems I remember reading about that somewhere-I was out of state at that time.
May 30, 200719 yr Not it was not really due to the same factors. The Beast had a different kind of brakes Skid brakes. MF used air compressions and a gasket broke.
