Six Flags Over Texas

I think over all our visit was okay. The were two rides that we weren't able to ride because they were out of service. On a positive, the line to enter the park moved pretty quickly even though it was snaking the parking lot.

My biggest piece of advice is buy your ticket online. It's $69 and you get the rest of the year for free. If you purchase your ticket at Customer relations it's also over $100 per person. Parking will also set you back $40.

A few of the rides were really faded and one had mechanical issues while we were waiting in line. There are a lot of employees so you're bound to find someone to help. The food and drinks are astronomical, but that is expected. I spent $12 on soft serve which was very sweet, but refreshing and the 20oz bottles of water are between $6 to $8. I also didn't see any water fill stations.

I been going here for the last 3 years and the bad thing is that rules and how things are run are always changing and not for the better either. This park is very inconsistent on the rules. But since this is my home park, I will still keep going to this park and buying the diamond membership.

Here are the inconsistencies and changes currently
1. Parking Opening - The parking lot sometimes opens 1 hour earlier and sometimes 30 minutes. When they opened 30 minutes, this causes tons of delays and bottle necks.

2. Parking Spots - They now have the parking where they read your license plate, but did not work for us. The parking attendant used a garage door clicker to let us in. VIP parking is you have to go around and there is a major bottleneck going in there as it took us 10 minutes to find parking. Then, there is just a little small opening to get into and out of the VIP parking lot which can be confusing. There are people standing out there so make sure you have your Diamond Pass out on the App to show the employees

3. Park Opening - hit or miss with this one. They sometimes open the security gates 30 minutes before opening. Sometimes right at opening and this time 15 minutes prior. All I can say it was chaos

4. Single Rider Lines - they got rid of this across all of the rides. I am not so sure about the decision, but when I went to Aquaman. I was waiting for 15 minutes until someone told me they do not offer the single rider line anymore and was not obvious on the line. I am thinking they got rid of this as people took advantage bringing as I did remember seeing groups of 3 or more people wanting to get in at the same time and arguing with the staff even though it is a single rider line which means you there is a good chance you will not ride with your party

Experience - my time did go by quickly as I was with my wife for 10 hours there. The food can still use some help as it was very crowded. If you go to Johnny Rockets, the floor ended up being really sticky and gross and there was hardly any seating. There were some places that were closed especially the Mexican restaurant. Most of the rides were opened which was nice. Aquaman is still only running 1 boat and lines can move slow.

Overall, I did have a good time, but I truly believe they are the most inconsistent park with the rules as it keeps on changing

Meh. As a theme park lover who was visiting the area we felt that we had to give it a try. When we got inside we were definitely underwhelmed. The park is small and many of the rides are old. We got there close to park opening. So that helped a lot with the lines early on. But I could see it getting very busy on a busy day as everything is so close together and the park doesn't have much.

Many rides were down which I've come to expect at six flags (I'm a diamond Passholder and visit Magic Mountain often.)

Overall the experience was fine enough. Most of the staff was very friendly or friendly enough. I might back just to try the rides that I didn't get to try. But I wasn't impressed at all especially knowing this is the first Six Flags park.

Six flags is ok. I finally went after living across from it for almost 3 years lol.

Over all it's just alright to me. The lines were very long, the rides were few and far between.

I felt a bit scared to go on some rides because they were being operated by literal high schoolers.

One thing I would say is if you see a short line for a ride there is a reason. For example the aquaman ride you are going to get wet so if it's cold outside that's why no one is over there lol

The prices are super high, the layout is a bit confusing overall. The parking is expensive too.
I don't know if I would be back unless I really had a reason to like a birthday party or something.

The closest Six flags to us is 4 hours away so when we were heading to Dallas and I saw Six flags was 30 minutes away I was excited!

The day we initially planned to go it was too cold so we ended up going on New Year's eve which probably made it busier.

First of all it is annoying that the prices online are not what is reflected at the park. It said parking would be $50 but when we got there it was $40 which is still ridiculous for parking.

Prices for park entry vary (I assume based on day of week and how busy they think it will be). I was going to buy online (good thing we did not) but the $50 in fees was too much. Fast forward to day of, we get there and the there is a booth/building to the left of security with a long line so I go on the app and buy tickets. It was $57 per ticket (no difference for adults vs kids) so $171 then we had to pay $14.92 in tax and a $9.99 processing fee (FOR DIGITAL TICKETS THAT A COMPUTER PROCESSES) and it was $195.91.

We get into the park, come across rides and hop on! I think "oh wow this is great." Until we got to La Vibora aka the parent trap. The line moves at a crawl. It has rows and rows of winding back and forth then go up some steps. We were in line for an hour and a half!

The other ride with a long wait was new texas giant which was an hour.

Because of the long wait times we rode 9 rides in about 6 hours. We did not upgrade to the flash pass as it was almost $200 extra per person.

It was fun to ride some thrill ride coasters with lower wait times than in the amusement parks close to us but I don't feel that it was worth it for what we paid.

For the runaway mine train they need to pair with a local chiropractor for you to get an adjustment after it. This ride is ROUGH. It hurt my back so bad. My husband had back and shoulder pain after it. The people behind me said it had never been that rough.

I can't see being back in the area and if I were I wouldn't spend time here unless I had an extra $1000 laying around to upgrade my family to fast passes. If you have low expectations and don't want to ride a lot of rides it may be worth it.

I can't really speak to anything else at this park as all we did was ride rides. We ate no food, drank no drinks (brought our own water). Staff interactions were meh (mostly young teens/college kids at rides who were more interested in socializing with their peers than working). We did not go in any gift shops. Bathrooms were the only other things we went in and most were clean but they are super run down.

I brought my son and nephew here during spring break and i was actually disappointed for the first time in many years. Six flags was a staple of my childhood and I love taking my kids as well. However, due to inflation the cost of taking a family of 4 to the park in my opinion wasn't worth it anymore. Once you tally up parking, tickets, food, fast passes etc you're looking easily at $500+ for a day. That's if all the rides are working. This was the cheapest trip I've done because we stayed in a hotel nearby to walk over. We opted not to do fast passes and average wait time for rides was 30mins-1hour. The food, for two sodas, two hot dogs, and two cheese fries was $100. The bigger rides weren't running which limited the experience and made wait times go up for others. Overall not the day I expected and we left early to go back to the hotel to swim.

I joined for membership. Ask for a refund at the appropriate time, and they refused to stop drafting my account. Anthony told me their policy is no refunds. The park sucks, I hope Anthony gets what he has coming. I will never visit Six Flags again. I wish them nothing but disasters.

It's the first day of spring break, multiple rides are closed, multiple restrooms are closed and food places too. It's like you guys know it's going to be busy so why? I am a gold plus member and I haven't had a good experience here since covid. Save up and go to Disney or universal instead

yeah, it was great but every ride I tried to do clothes down for about 30 minutes I had to wait about an hour and 30 minutes trying to ride Batman and Mr. freeze and I couldn't even get to ride Batman because it shut down.

As far as Six Flags theme parks goes, I really enjoyed this one. There are a variety of attractions with a nice array of snacks and restaurants as well. The good majority of employees tend to be helpful. Here are a few issues:

-One of the upside down rides has a ridiculous entrance (can't recall the name now) with the way it is positioned.

-Some of their ride operators are anal retentive. I recall being in the log flume line but did not realize I was in the standby queue. As I proceeded to the front, I advised the guy my knee has some recent issues (I slipped/fell on a cruise a months ago). He barked "Go back to the front!" Just unnecessarily rude. When I returned to this attraction later, I did what someone advised me to do: enter from the back entrance since I had a handicap pass (this I got from guest relations upon a staffer's recommendation). His response? "Oh you went in the wrong line" and yet this guy considered sending me back to the entrance. Is that log flume ride always staffed with egotistical ride operators possessing a God Complex? Bizarre!

Otherwise, it was a solid experience. I'd go back if I ever visit Arlington again.
