Last year, Disney World and Disneyland launched their replacement for the FastPass system, which replaced the ability to skip the line at key attractions for free with a new paid option. While this actually put Disney alongside many other parks that already charged for this capability, Disney went a step further by offering an entirely separate payment option to skip the line at its most popular attractions. and now six flags Magic Mountain has followed suit by doing the same thing on four roller coasters.
Six Flags Magic Mountain already had an add-on ticket called the Flash Pass, which allowed guests to skip the lines at around 20 attractions for between $80 and $180 per ticket, depending on the type of pass you want, with more expensive options advertising bigger discounts. waiting. . Now, according to the Registro COMagic Mountain now offers single-use Flash Pass options for between $5 and $25 per person per ride on four roller coasters, Twisted Colossus, West Coast Racers, Full Throttle and Goliath.
The system works very similarly to Disneyland and Disney World Single Lightning Lane Option, where guests can choose the time to return to the attraction and skip the line. Unlike the Disney options, these four attractions are also available through the standard Flash Pass option. On the Disney the Genie+ option which covers most attractions, and the individual Lightning Lanes, it covers separate attractions with no overlap.
There is certainly a reason why a system like this might be preferable for some guests. If the four individually priced rides are what you really want to do, then even buying a pass for all four will probably cost less than the full Flash Pass option. In a couple of cases, the Full Flash Pass only allowed you to skip a ride on these rides anyway.
It’s not surprising to see another park following Disney’s lead, even so soon after Disney implemented this change, Disney is the leader in the theme park industry and largely dictate what is considered normal. Once it’s okay at Disney, it’s probably okay anywhere else.
And Magic Mountain is the crown jewel of the Six Flags empire. It has been, at various times, the roller coaster capital of the nation, so it remains a huge deal in the game, even if it is seen as more of a regional player than disney or universal. Other Six Flags parks have been toying with this payout structure and trying to go big at Magic Mountain is supposed to be a big test for the rest of Six Flags to do the same.
Assuming there isn’t mass reaction At this new pricing structure, you’re certainly not going anywhere. And the more locations do it, the more normal it becomes. It seems like we might actually be coming full circle back to the days when all amusement parks charged per ride. Of course, when they did that, admission wasn’t that expensive.
