Ridgeracer Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Hey all PA people. Have any of you been to Dorney Park.?? If so, whats the best time to go so my friends and I can get on all or most of the rides. I really hate long lines for rides. Also I don't want to go to the water park just the amusement park. Thanks in advance. "Gimme mines Balboa...Gimme mines".....Clubber Lang - Mr. T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh19372 Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Even if you hate lines, it's worth the wait to go to Six Flags GA instead. Rides are much better (and more numerous). Pay for the express ticket on a couple of the key rides (like Kingda Ka), and wait on some of the others (which will have a little shorter lines since Kingda Ka will be attracting everyone). Other option is to get there when they first open, and make the mad dash. Dorney's OK, but only a couple of the rides are worth the wait, vs. six or more rides at Six Flags... But at Six Flags, make sure you've gotten adequate number or rides on the big stuff by dusk, as that's when all the teens come in droves....

Ridgeracer Posted June 13, 2005 Author Share Posted June 13, 2005 I was considering Six Flags but most of my friends can't go during the weekdays because they have to work (yes I work too but rotating days). What if you get there as soon as they open. Would you be able to get on at least 4-5 good rides.?

sutter2k Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 With either park weekdays are going to be less crowded. Hershey is probably the "cleaniest". Six Flags propably the "biggest" rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikazeridah Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Haha not sure about Dorney Park or anything but I from my experiences with Six Flags (the one in NJ) if you go in right when it opens you can beat out the really long exhausting lines. When I went Superman was just recently opened and we only had to wait maybe 20 minutes. We also got in a few more rides before the lines really started to form.

direavenger Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I've been going there for years! Like these guys have said, go during the week, as it will be less crowded. Though I have found that it never gets overly crowded regardless of what time you go (as in, I've never waited more than an hour for the big coasters). Seeing what the weather will be like for the next few days in PA, I'd reconsider the waterpark. It's really nice (and big) and will help on those 90-plus days. The Dude - Two inches and counting...

neelnug Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Good time... can have long lines. If you go when the weather isn't great you can beat the lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridgeracer Posted June 14, 2005 Author Share Posted June 14, 2005 Excellent advice guys. Maybe i'll go at the end of the month. Now if only my girlfriend wasn't scared to go on the rollercoasters....

direavenger Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 No problem...but you definately have to get your girl to go on those coasters. They're the reason I go there! The Dude - Two inches and counting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
