What's your favorite ride at six flags?
twisted/x2
CRAZANITY BABYYYY
The best!
I've never been on it.
Oh no!
My general rule of thumb is this:
If this is NOT your local park (i.e., you're traveling more than 3 hours/150 miles away), you're going on a weekend/holiday, AND you only have a single day to spend at the park, Flash Pass/Fast Pass/Fast Lane is 10000% worth it. I've been to dozens of different parks over the country for years and when this criteria fits your situation, you'll absolutely get your money's worth--and especially when you buy in advance or very early in the day.
That onride 360 camera footage is awesome!
Which Flash pass did you get? Bronze, Gold or Platinum?
I wanna know too, kinda weird he didn’t mention it
Same cause I’m going but I don’t wanna waste 125 per person when I can get a cheaper but good version
I’m wondering the same.
He said they got the Gold Flash Pass in a different comment.
Flash pass is extra besides your season pass. It’s about $125 per person for 1 DAY.
Do you have to get the watch if you scan your phone on the barcode you mentioned?
Definitely...DEFINITELY!...get a Flash Pass if you go to 6 Flags Magic Mountain, or any of the major amusement parks, DisneyWorld included. Will it cost more money?...Of course, but it will be so worth it. You will spend big bucks to go to these parks, especially if you're coming (flying!) from out of state, so spend some more to ensure that you have a great time. I learned my lesson...waiting an 1-1/2 hours to get on Peter Pan ride at Magic Kingdom DisneyWorld in Orlando was ridiculous...never again. You generally don't go to these parks every year, so when you do go, make sure that you have a great time, and not one of regret. Been there, done that.
I bought the bronze and want to upgrade it to gold. Do they accept transferring and worth to upgrade?
Which type of flash pass did you purchase ?
Going on a weekday in august all the way from Canada, pass worth it?
goin to six flags w/ flash pass this august as my birthday present so this vid rlly helped me see what it would be like! thanks man :D
Same!
I went back in the day when the flash pass was just coming out it wasn’t like 2010 I turn 26 I went on like 30 rides. It was such a blast they had these giant things your test your belt loop on your pants so I’ll let you know when your ride was ready I paid $150 for me and my girlfriend to get the platinum pass. We got to go on twice and skip 90% of the line was so cool that’s birthday ever
Can you get on as many rides with flash pass or are the rides limited?
I went on July 4-6 and it was crazy busy and my family has the fast pass for the year it’s only 29 a month
You didn't include reservations times and which tier of the flash pass.
How bad is it for fright fest I’m going on the 16th of October
What’s the difference between the flash passes? Did you have the plat to get this footage or it doesn’t matter?
Thank you so much for this review. Others Creators don't seem to grasp the concept of a proper review, which much include comparisons for time. I'll take 15 min vs 100 any day of the week. Gonna need to pick up a little OT to afford it but it's beyond worth it. Some simple perspective math for my fellow YTers: 100 min = 1hr 40 min.; that's almost 20% of a 10 hour day for ONE ride or half a day for 3 rides. That's not a lot of fun.
Can you do a video about Fast Lane at Knott's Berry Farm?
a few people already commented but what type of flash pass did you buy!
planning on going soon but not sure if I should get a bronze or gold pass
We got the gold.
If there is only one entrance for flash pass how do you advance ahead of others if they have bronze and you have gold? Is there additional lines when you get to the end to ride that say bronze, gold, etc?
Once you enter the Flash Pass line for a ride, it doesn’t matter what level of FP you have - it becomes a traditional line, just for FP people only. The different tiers of FP and their time reductions are based on the stand-by line wait time and aren’t prioritized over each other within the FP queue. This is balanced out by the FP queue receiving higher priority over stand-by for boarding, so the FP line shouldn’t usually be more than 5-8 minutes. As an example, if you have Gold FP and a ride has a 60 minute stand-by time, you wait 30 minutes for your FP code then enter the FP line and maybe stand around a few minutes more to ride and that’s it. Hope this helps.
You are the man convinced me!
Its well worth it!!
I have one question… did you wear your glasses the whole time?? I wear glasses and don’t wanna take them off :(
hello thanks for the video!! i wanted to know if you guys got the regular, the gold or the platinum one! thank you very much. i am going on mid july (on a friday) so i wanted to know if with the regular one id be okay.
Yeah seriously… Same thing I was wondering the entire video. I don’t like this video very much just based on that. Whoopty do you got on a bunch of rides yeah using which flash pass? Very key information left completely out of the video.
DONT GET REGULAR U WAIT THE SAME ITS NOT WORTH IT UNLESS U GET PLATINUM
Hey i have a question, are you able to just load up the flash pass on your phone instead of getting the watch or do you have to get the watch
If you have the season flash pass you'll need the watch
@@kaiguz26 Actually I have a season flash pass and it works just fine using the mobile / website version
We'll be visiting in October-- will the crowds be fewer then?
Never been before.
Do you think we can get by with just a bronze, or.... no fast pass perhaps?
Discovery kingdom ain’t too bad
During the down season everything is generally walk on. But October is during the Halloween season so it would probably be worth it to get at LEAST Gold. If you were going during say the end of August or beginning of September, then usually everything is walk on anyway except for like 2 rides so it's prob only worth it to maybe do Bronze on a day like that. During Summer when everyone is out of school or flying in from out of town, I'd say get the Gold or Platinum to minimize the wait as much as possible. Bronze doesn't sound worth it since the wait time is still the same.
Which flash pass did you have, regular, gold or platinum? The video didn’t say it
I have a question, Im going to magic mountain soon and ive been many times but never with a flash pass, i was justr wondering if anyone knows how many times you can use it in a day or if there is some sort of limit ( I want to go with it this next time I go)
How much was the fast pass?
Can you add a flash pass to a single day admission or only if you are a season pass holder?
You can buy single-day Flash Pass as well.
@Let's Park It Since you regularly go to Magic Mountain have you experienced X2 with the audio effects on since they have reopened? I have went 10+ times in the past 3 months and I only experienced the fire effects once, but the audio has never been working. I really miss that experience :(
Audio effects are off, i've seen fire once but never on my ride :(
Yes. They need to fix that. Apparently the audio isn’t priority for Six Flags. It might as well be just the original X if they’re not going to fix the audio.
which flash pass did u use?
OK I was trying to follow your instructions because you didn’t go to the entrance, to buyflash pass to what I can do to pay cash to buy a flash pass
what day? month did you visit?
The season flash pass is very worth it right now since it is so crowded/ understaffed. It seems that way too many people have the flash pass. I bought the flash pass after my first visit after the reopening in April where I waited 6 hours to only ride Tatsu and X2. I bought the gold season flash pass for $200 during its sale and it has done me wonders. I can chill in the shade, reserve a my next ride while I am on a ride, or eat while I wait for my turn. If you don't have a flash pass you are waiting in line for hours on end while people walk past you that do have one. It is essential to have one right now. The gold flash pass gives the best value for the money since I could just ride superman early in the day while there is no one in line.
Super Super Worth it!
What day did you go
The girl in the back making you laugh 😂
Lol right! Dancing around like a weirdo
question is what level of fast pass?
So you gotta purchase the admission + the flash ? 😳
I’ve heard Diamond elite members get a free upgrade on flash pass from bronze to gold. Do you happen to know if the free upgrade applies to one pass for a group of 5
The upgrade applies just to the one member, so only 1/5 would have the free upgrade unless all 5 have the membership.
I’m still not sure how it works lol whenever I go i know I have (2) skip the line per visit. Is that the free upgrade we get per our membership?
I got the bronze flash pass on the Thursday before 4th of July, I got on 13 COASTERS, THATS SO GOOD FOR HOW CROWDED IT WAS. I mean I did got on 4 without the flash pass (speedy, roadrunner, ninja, gold rusher) but I got on 9 major coasters with over 2 hour waits…with the bronze. So yes worth it….even the bronze is worth it.
whats the diference between the bronze and gold flash pass
@@cowpoke6479 time wait gold is 50% less of a wait
How much is it?
How bad are lines for Labor Day?
It’s going to be my first time going to magic Mountian where on the map is the flash pass hq
What flash pass is better
does it matter if you get the basic one? i have the gold but i just don’t know he difference
The regular flash pass lets you a reserve a ride and it reduces the wait by 25%, so if the line for it is an hour you only have to wait 45 min. But it’s still good because you’re not actually waiting in line and you can do other stuff. The gold reduces the wait by 60%, so if the line is an hour you’re only waiting about 25 min. Finally the platinum reduces the wait by 90% so if the line is an hour you’re only waiting about 5 min
I have gold and the longest I had to wait was 20 mins and There’s times where it lets go at like 5 mins
In suprisied the lines where this long I went in July 2nd a Friday and it was Fourth of July fest and the only long line was west coast racers unless you count the kiddie coasters I got in everything
We went on that July 2nd as well. That was a crazy slow day compared to any of the other days we've been the past two months. You picked an amazing day the park was empty that day. Most days its packed
@@LetsParkIt well good I picked a good day I’ll be going in Sunday so I’ll see if the lines are longer then
Get there early!
with the flash pass can you ride twisted colossus unlimited times or is it a single reservation only?
Unlimited
I think the only rides that are SRO are West Coast Racers and X² (although with X² this varies and depends how busy they anticipate it to be).
Going in September from Michigan . Can’t wait!
Yayyy
What day cause I’m going in September
@@LetsParkIt What flash pass did you use
If I buy a flash pass can I only use it once per ride? or can I ride all the rides unlimited? Also which flash pass is most worth?
You can use it as many times as you wish on all rides, EXCEPT for the rides that are "single reservation only". West Coast Racers is usually Single Reservation Only and I believe X². So you have to choose wisely with those.. I'd say if you've already ridden them in day time, then it could be smart to use the single reservation for a night ride instead. And vice versa.
And if you are unsure which rides are by single reservation only, you can always check on the website or check with someone at the Flash Pass center and they'll also let you know. For example, I'm sure that when Wonder Woman finally opens, it will be single reservation only, simply because of how crazy the wait for that will be. West Coast Racers is the latest ride there currently so the line is always very long. It'll probably be unlimited soon since it will no longer be the latest ride when Wonder Woman opens up.
Anyway, said all that to say, outside of X² and WCR, you can ride any other ride as much as you want and skip as much as you want as long as you have the Flash Pass.
As far as which Flash Pass is most worth it, I'd say at LEAST the Gold level or higher. I don't think the Bronze seems worth it since the wait time is still the same but you are essentially just placed in a virtual queue. Basically what that means is, if a ride's wait time is 70min, you'd still have to wait the 70 minutes but just not physically. You could go do other things until the flash pass alerts you. But I'd rather get a Pass where I see my money actually working for me. Gold cuts your wait time by at 50% or more, and Platinum cuts it by around 90% or more. So at the Gold and Platinum levels I think you see your money working for you at that point. I wouldn't buy a pass where I'm still waiting the same amount of time to ride anyway, as such with the bronze or basic level pass..
@@neferazure so the flash pass for x2 and wcr can only be used once each visit or literally only once???? I just paid an arm and a leg for the platnium SEASON flash pass for my daughter and myself along with diamond season passes and I'm going to be super pissed if it's not good towards ALL RIDES, UNLIMITED! Bc I read alot about them before purchasing and didn't see anywhere that the season platnium flash pass had any limits or restrictions.
How do I get the flash pass
It what day
did he go?
I Never Go Anywhere Without The Skip The Line💚
We got Gold yesterday at Six Flags Great America and I think it was totally worth it. Goliath was 60min wait pretty much all day and we waited no more than 10min both times we rode it. It was a Monday so the park wasn't super crowded but there were still fairly long lines at all the big rides and it was nice to be able bypass them. I'd certainly get it again. I wouldn't do Platinum though. If you just book your next ride while you're in line you won't even need to wait - and then it's just like Platinum.
which flash pass did you buy?
When you have flash pass can you reserve spots for the different rides at the same time?
No just one at a time
just once at a time, but when i went what we’d do is right after they scanned our flash pass, while we were waiting to board the trains we’d reserve another ride and go to that ride as soon as we got off. worked like a dream
@@andressalazar5765 Exactly.
I was the manager for Flash Pass At Six Flags Over Texas. Personally it's expensive, yes, but the regular pass isn't worth it. U just don't wait in line. Other than that, great company (Accesso) and great culture to work at. Great pay
Which flash pass did you use??
Did he get the bronze, gold, or platinum flash pass?
was it gold or platinum flash pass you was using ?
gold he commented
wait so which flash pass do i need to get? im not tryna spend $125 for the platinum one if i dont have to...
because i thought u had to reserve the ride on the flash pass. im going on a busy day from 1030-430
honestly I don't think gold or platinum are worth that much money. go for bronze. its very convenient I used it and it helped a lot
@@mrstanleycup384 it's good that you're going early because you'll get to ride some rides at the start and theeeeen it gets very busy very quickly. and the weather is best at 5-6 pm. I hope I helped 👍🏼
one more thing. Some rides get very busy and don't stop being busy. Colossus was a 2 hour wait starting from 6 to closing hours. Some rides are a 70 minute wait at 3-4 pm and then theyre maybe 30-40 minutes shorter
but flash pass bronze let's you reserve a space on line while in the meantime you can do other things such as eating or riding other rides. but one con is that you can't reserve more than 1 ride but it does make some sense
Fun!
Is there a limit on how many rides you can get on before using it again? Or can you use the pass whenever you want?
I think it’s just one at a time. So as soon as the park employee scans it book yo ur next one while you’re waiting for the ride to get the most out of it.
You can use it as much as you want, except on rides that are single reservation only (currently, SRO rides are West Coast Racers, and X²).
does anyone know if you are able to continuously ride twisted colossus with a flash pass without getting off of the train?
You are not
LoL you ALWAYS have to get off the train of any coaster. Idk any park that allows you to just stay on the ride. It's not a big deal since you don't have to wait anyway. You just go back through the entrance and skip the line again. Not a big deal.
Ok, so im going to buy the BIG ONE! The platinum flash pass! DOes that mean it will be about shorter times then the gold version you have???
With Gold it makes you wait a certain amount of time, say 10 minutes, before they will allow you on the ride. It has to expire before the QR code appears for the attendant to scan. With Platinum there's no timer.
What flash pass did you have?
So worth it. I have the platinum season flash pass and go to at least 15 rides every time
which flash pass did u get bronze or gold
Have you heard any info on how long tatsu is gonna be closed?
No word yet!
Transformer blew. I am hearing it will take months due to chip shortages.
Which flash pass did you get
he got gold
Fast forward a few years...
Everyone will want to skip the lines...
So everyone has a pass...
Now, everyone with a pass will be waiting in line with many others who also have the pass...
No. And you want to know why? Money. Not everyone can afford and it will always allow not everyone to have it.
they restrict how many people can have a flash pass
Flash Passes at all tiers are sold in limited quantities, and they aren't always available..if you're going on a particularly busy day, reserving your pass ahead of time is strongly suggested. If you try buying same day, they might be sold out. It's happened a few times. So no, not everyone can get one, even if they want one. A) not everyone can afford them, and the price is for the convenience, b) it would defeat the entire purpose of their existence, and c) limited quantities are available.
I'm guessing you had the platinum flash pass. Theres 3 types. Regular, gold, and Platinum. The regular is equal to the non flash pass wait time, gold is half the wait time, and platinum is 90% of the wait time.
Which rides have flash access, pls list them
Theyre listed on the website
Is worth it just depends if it’s a busy day
Im going tomorrow!!!
Hopefully you had a good time!
How did your glasses not fall
My Prescription glasses are pretty tight on my face!
wait i thought flash pass just virtually puts your place in line, there's a fast pass lane?
You're speaking of the Bronze level Flash Pass. With the Bronze level pass, the wait time is still the same but you are placed in a virtual queue. With Gold and Platinum level, you go into the actual Flash Pass lane and you only wait between 50-90% less of the actual listed wait time.
@@neferazure oh wow thats amazing thanks
What flash pass did you get? There are tiers.
An important question. Are there attractions which don’t have platinum fast pass?
I don’t know how people vlog in public. I would be super embarrassed lmfao I would rather burp
you don’t burp in public?
If you care about what everybody thinks you’ll never live your life for you once you do that you’ll be free try doing things to liberate yourself otherwise always be trapped be controlled by what other people think and what you think other people think it’s a very vicious cycle I need a break and do whatever you can. She can really be free in like your life without the controller, thoughts and feelings of other people, including yourself.
But which Flash Pass did you purchase???
Which Flash Pass did you get🤷🏾♂️Basic,Gold or Platinum?
He said Gold in a different reply to someone else.
March 26th 2022 spring break MY flash pass experience,,the truth about flash passes at magic mountain,,,, GET PLATINUM,,, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO RIDE EVERY flash pass ride otherwise. ,,,
What day did you go ? :)
Went on a Wednesday. It's busy every day of the week now.
@@LetsParkIt What day do you usually go? Or does it vary
It all depends. Normally during the weekdays
It was during week? Or weekend?
This was Friday but every day is busy during the summer.
@@LetsParkIt omg ... ok thanks cutie
What flash pass was it ?
It’s going to be 4 of us do we each need to get a flash pass ?
you have to each pay the full amount but share one device
Yes. All need it.
Is the platinum flash pass worth it ?
Platinum is beneficial for the park he didn’t show. The part you virtually wait in the line via the flash pass. With platinum your waits are only 5-10 minutes to be able to enter the flash pass queue, and as you saw from his video your next one will be ready because it takes 5-10 minutes to get on the ride after they scan it anyways.
The big Texas ride
Bro, there are currently 3 types of FLASH PASSES! Which one did you buy???
What the hell is that face at 1:08 OMGGG
It would be nice if you actually answered some of these questions.....
I got the season gold flash pass on sale. Absolutely worth it
Yesssssss
how were the wait times with gold bc i’ve seen mixed reviews?
Longest reserve time was about 35 mins at peak times. Gold flash pass is definitely worth it. As soon as you get you pass scanned reserve your next ride right away
@@kaiguz26 alright thank u sm also so basically u just scan ur pass than wait the time then get on the ride when u come back right away? and in that time u can make another reservation time?
Anyone notice the mirror effect on the girl at 1:08? Creepy.
short answer: yes
Have to get the flash pass. Even with it you most likely won't ride all of the rides in one day.
Nope. Ours was worthless. They didn’t honor the time windows and made flash pass wait. It did jump a lot if the line but not like they claimed. Instead if 90 minutes we were waiting 20
I hate the flash pass, I've been to six flags so many times and one time we had the flash pass and we had the more expensive one where you get to ride twice if you want to and the way six flags does it is super awkward, they don't do anything to explain to the next people in line that you are going to be riding twice so when the train gets back to the station, you have to awkwardly explain the the next people in line that you have the flash pass and get to ride again. One time, these ghetto people were freaking out cussing and yelling at us to get out and I already had my restraint bar thing pulled down and I got scared because I couldn't move or get out even if I wanted to and this giant ghetto person was like freaking out yelling GET OUT!!!!!!! And I couldn't do anything, it made me feel unsafe. Also when you go threw the flash pass line, sometimes they don't stop the normal line to let the flash pass people through, the flash pass employee is sometimes just standing at the entrance of the ride and just lets you go threw and then the flash pass line just merges with the regular line so you just have to awkwardly cut in front of someone else in line, it's the same problem as the other problem I explained. This entire problem aside, also some rides have the flash pass line merge with the regular line so far back that you still have to wait a long time. My six flags park is Great America and there is this ride called the Dark Knight and you have to wait soooo long even if you have the flash pass. It's almost like six flags didn't want to spend money to make make a new queue that goes up to the station so they just built it really far back at wherever was easiest. Also I think that paying to cut the line is dumb and they just shouldn't have the flash pass, some people might disagree with me on this but just because you have more money doesn't mean you should be able to cut everyone else
Is the flash pass worth it? Heck no!
No mask wtf
Fk mask. Don't feel safe, don't go simple.

Firstly you don’t say which type of flash pass you have as there are three tiers. Also not all rides are on the fast pass. I’m assuming you got the top level one as you did full throttle which isn’t on the lower pass types
