I am suprised at this, I took 2 trips to the park Early June, and rarely queued up for anything, My Longest Wait was Millennium Force at 50 mins, Raptor was second at 45 mins, Magnum was third at 30 mins. But apart from this, I managed many Walk On's on quite a few coasters and Rides, Quite Simply, Nothing was over 1hr Queue Time, Simply Incredible.
At least Cedar Point cares about Queues and Capasity to their Rides even when they aint desperatly busy by Running Most of their Rides to full Capasity which is something I cant say for all parks like SFWOA
i waited 4 hours for Raptor, 3.5 for MF, 2.5 for Mantis and 2 hours for Magnum. Also 2 hours for DT.

HurricaneGeauga- Just in case
Most ridicious: Last year when I went to Paramount Canada's Wonderland, OVER 1 1/2 HOURS TO GET ON A STUPID VEKOMA SLC!!!!!!!!!
Yesterday I went to PCW again, but the lines a lot shorter! And most rides almost no line! And even the Vekoma SLC (top gun) has very short or vitually no line at all, when it usually have over 1 hour waits!
Hey, the GP in Canada think that the SLC is the best thing since sliced bread. Anyway, whenever I visit Cedar Point there were always long lines (even on weekdays) Maybe I just chose the wrong days everytime.
cp may have the longes't lines but isn't it also a lot bigger than a lot of other parks and therefore they will have more people in attendance

Cedar Point always seems to try to make the least wait possible by running all their trains on their coasters. But, if you want to see what park has the worst lines. Go to any SF park. Maybe not all of the SF parks. But most of them. For some reason SF will never run their coasters to full capacity unless it is a saturday or a holiday. Why must they do this?
i agree they have the longest lines!!!!!!!

There it is!!! I am so suprised it took 25 replies before this statement was made! ::End of sarcasm:::: I see you have only been to two maybe three SF parks unless your Track record isn't updated so, how can you even say most of them?? I know that there are a few with problems but,dare I say all or, most of them if i have only been to 2 or 3?? I don't think so!Oh and, don't believe everything you hear because, in case you haven't noticed, trip reports for individual parks do vary from person to person.

I dont really mind line as long as the coaster is worth riding. Im tired of all this stuff in the papers about coasters.
Ladst Thursday was pretty crowded at Cedar Point...but the wait for Millenium was only 45 minutes! The operators were efficient! Thanks guys (and girls!) ;)

Yeeee Haaawwww!
I went in May and the longest I waited was 1 hour for Millennium Force. It was well worth it! I waited in line for Raptor 45 minutes, and i thought it was well worth it. Magnum's line was 5 minutes! I don't think the have the longest line at all, but that is just my opinion.

CP has a lot of guests, their lines have more people in them. Part of the reason for that is it's a great park. But the important thing to remember is that they run their rides in such a way as to maximize throughput, and they stay close to the theoretical maximums for PPH - patrons per hour, on their rides. I waited over an hour for Batwing last week, and was told "we only run both sides of the platform on weekends". I rode X-Flight in half the time (also on a weekday, about the same number of people in line). Why? I believe COMPETITION is the reason - SFWoA has it, SFA doesn't.

Rickyswmn: I vaguely remember going to SFGAdv and seeing max trains running on all the coasters...and I went on a WEDNESDAY. but according to Matt K H, that couldn't have happened {dripping with ire}
Anyway, they have their version, we have the truth!

The lines don't seem that bad when they have DJ's making idiots out of themselves.
that's a joke about SFA running both sides of the platform on batwing on weekends only. I was there this past saturday and they were only running 1 train and 1 platform.

Well said my dear lady. Of all the times I have been to Great Adventure, I can only remember once where they were not running all their trains, and that was this May when they were (and still is) working on the Chiller. Some people just equate Six Flags with inefficiency which is unfair to the individual parks.

74 days to go - SF:GADV opening day
I went to CP in MAY and the longest wait was Millenium Force at 15minutes. Everything else 2was pretty much walk-on. This was on weekday. NEVER EVER go on a weekend! EVER!!! You WILL wait hours for the same rides.
