All Season Flash Pass

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.

Does anyone know how this thing works? Its very expensive, so the question is do I need to buy more than one for my fiance and myself, or would I just buy one and incur an additional charge for an additional rider? I've never done flash pass of any sort. Just curious.

The season pass was 62 each when I got one during the current sale. Minus taxes of course.

I'm assuming he's talking about Season Flash Pass based on the Forum heading. Season Flash Pass is $300 for Gold Level, the one that cuts wait time by 50%

Regarding the All-Season-Flash-Pass, You get it added to your pass and then you just scan it to get it. Like the dining pass.

Thought it was $500 before? $300 is not a bad deal. 4 years ago I never noticed a difference when I bought Gold or regular. I was only buying them because I thought it was just a matter of time before I landed a new and much better job and thought it'd be my last chance to hit Great America multiple times in one season. Didn't exactly work out that way. Could afford it if we dropped one Sea World or Busch Gardens trip, but not sure I'd do that. So $600 works out to where you break even after 6 visits or maybe 7. Guess it's targeted towards people who live very close to the park and have the budget. There's so many flash passers these days that you could have 100+ other flash passers ahead of you in lines for something like X-Flight(where I counted 200-300 flash passers passing us by before getting to the front of the line multiple times in 2014).

in my opinion Flash Pass is only really needed if you go on weekends or Holiday(4th of July, etc...) Also, only Platinum works for Goliath, which is the most popular ride with consistent longest lines.

I had the gold flash pass a few weeks ago and was able to use it to ride Goliath once.

Yeah, I bought the season long one for 2017 and used it today. All the Platinum only rides showed up on mine (gold level) except for JL:BfM

Negative ghost rider. Only used at G-Am. You can use standard season pass discount at other parks

If it was able to be used at all parks I would certainly buy one. Being able to visit your home park and others without worried about crowds would be great. But I'm sure this would cause problems of its own and the chain would ultimately lose money.

It seems like the other side always wins on American Eagle :?
Also, I've ridden Goliath 23 times in one day. HBU? :roll: :P

The chain-wide dining passes clearly haven't hurt the chain. Neither have the chain-wide sports bottle.
