Message: <blockquote data-quote="Touchdown" data-source="post: 9489732" data-attributes="member: 69347">As a frequent theme park goer I have rules I follow to have a good day.  The two of note to this discussion:1. Always rope drop, the first 1-2 hours are crucial to getting on the big rides with waits that do not violate...2. Think long and hard about getting in a line more then 30 minutes, you should only do that 2-3 max a day; and except for rare occasions (once a day max) avoid lines over 1 hour.This is true at Disney and Cedar Point.  I can and will (barring mechanical issues, which is a big ask) get you on every major coaster (Steel Vengeance, Maverick, MF, TTD, Valravyn, Gatekeeper, TTD) without a long wait provided you get morning ERT (Resort Guest or Platinum SP holder.)  Waiting stinks, most of your day should be spent experiencing attractions, not waiting for them.  If you are waiting in two hour lines you are doing it wrong.When I’m traveling to a far away regional park and only have one day I will pay for Flash Pass/Quick Queue/Fastlane, and I always get Universal Express (because I stay onsite) but when it comes to parks I know and frequent regularly, I don’t need those tools.</blockquote>
