The exit passes become even better then. I guess I'll be using them for just X-Flight then...

Where do you get exit passes from?

^ I would guess he bought an Xtreme Pass. Either that or he plans on getting stuck on a lot of rides

[CoasterDemon]

I would sell mine for good cash money and just go ride Whizzer and Demon and stuff. Just kidding... I would use them on Ragin' Cajun!

I have one or two in my car - but they expired last year. Not sure what that complaint was about - probably the Eagle only running one side. (I always give compliments at the same time )

[DejaVu2001]

I'd hold on to those. The passes are supposed to only be good for the current season only, but they don't always change them each year. I'm hoping that is the case this year, because I have a few from last year.

Xtreme pass for me and the boy.

Dejavu - are we having to go to guest relations for those, and are our names written on them, as well as the meal pass? I mean, if one were to know

Just so I know how to do this next Saturday.

^ I actually have no idea, and I would definitely like to know.

I'll see if I can find out from a customer service rep there, worst case I'll let everyone know the night of the 5th...

My guess for getting these skip the line passes is they would give them to you when you walk into the park(express entrance for extreme pass holders) and it would wither be the same as normal skip the line pass or it will be a special one for us but i do not think there going to go so far with putting our names on them. That would be a hassel

[scott2608]

They may do it like they did it for the funatics rewards they had in 2010, go to carousel gift store they scan your pass and print a register receipt with the skip the line pass.

It's official:

X Flight**

**X Flight is only available on Platinum THE FLASH Passes. You will only get one ride on X Flight and your ride time must be reserved when you pick up your THE FLASH Pass at the park.

Wrote this up in the Pass Thread, but long and short of it, BEFORE you go into the park, go to Window 7, show your Xtreme Pass.

Name isn't on it, but the date is, so if you are a real jerk, you can steal your kids exit passes.

[IzCoaster]

If you look on the botton of the exit pass is says "Exit passes not valid on X-Flight" or something like that. Hopefully some employee wont know that and I can still use it on the ride

LMAO! That's funny. Good idea.

Actually there was a whole bruhaha in the X-Flight thread about this. I and many others called and complained, and new Xtreme exit passes will be made or according to Six Flags, were already made, and will be valid for X Flight but only during certain hours. We don't have the exact times, but most have said first 2 and last 2 hours of the day.

Thanks for letting me know! I knew nothing about that haha

So does x2 still operate in this manner? I wonder how long it will be before X-flight gets put on the regular and gold flash passes with unlimited rides

[Luxornv]

^I would imagine next season. After riding it, it really doesn't seem like anything really special to keep exclusive perks to people.

[stockboy300]

I have a extreme pass and was told that my exit pass for XF could only be picked up between 10 - noon. Those passes are green. The exit passes that excluded XF are red. I was told to go to window 7 to pick up. I go in the evening alot so I can't get my XF pass?

[DejaVu2001]

^ The following is an excerpt from an email someone on Facebook received from SFGAm management in response to their concerns:

All X-Flight traffic will continue to be directed the The Flash Pass entrance. Rather than being valid only for the first two hours of operation, the Single Use Flash Pass coupon will be valid for the first two hours of the Xtreme Pass holders visit. The coupon will be date and time stamped for any Xtreme Pass holder intending to use their coupon at X-Flight.

[Johnny.Ink]

I can verify that is what happens with the Exit passes now. You have the first 2 hours to use it on X-Flight, and then after that it's good on any other ride.

Also, X Flight has to be redeemed at the Flash Pass entrance, and not the Exit. Every other ride, you can redeem at the exit.

[Johnny.Ink]

Also, Platinum Flash Pass folks get to reserve X Flight twice during the day now, instead of once as previous.

I'm taking my 2 kids to the park this Saturday. Any thoughts on how to best avoid long lines on X-Flight and get a Regular Flash Pass? I assume the shortest line for X-flight would be first thing in the morning, but then I fear a long line to pick up the Flash Pass afterwards.

So, should we go first to pick up the regular Flash Pass (which doesn't work on X-Flight) and then go to X-flight (or wait until later?), or go to X-Flight first?
