How to Save Money at Six Flags

If you'll be visiting Six Flags during peak summer periods, you might want to consider a Flash Pass. This pass costs as little as $15 at some Six Flags properties and can easily cost more than twice that amount at others. Remember that the Flash Pass costs are in addition to your entry fee. The pass allows you several levels of line jumping. A "regular" Flash Pass allows you to check in at a specified time and then come back later without standing in line. For example, if the estimated wait time is 60 minutes, you would simply come back in 60 minutes and get on the ride immediately. A "gold" pass works much the same way, but cuts that wait time significantly. With a "platinum" pass, the wait time is reduced by 90 percent, and you can ride again immediately after you finish without further waiting. Flash Passes are only available one day at a time.
