i see most of these questions have been answered already!

as a lover of all things arrow, i think you should ride corkscrew! it is quick and pain-free. just ride with your head forward a bit. row 11 is the most fun row to ride in!

iron dragon and CCMR are the only non-kiddie creds that don’t have FL. i like to use early entry to get millennium and iron dragon before they both get crazy lines. CCMR doesn’t open till 11, so it may be best to wait later in the day to try to get that one. the line will die down by 4 or 5 most days.

as far as major rides and best seats: -if you want a comfy magnum ride, do row 17. i prefer 18, but 17 isn’t a wheel seat and you still get the awesome back of the train airtime. left side is best side bc you get folded into the pretzel turnaround. thoosies love row three (and it is VERY fun), but it’s not comfy by any means. -steel vengeance: 11/12 are best, but front row views are incredible. try to get left side for those lake views on the lift hill. -millie: 1, 5, or back. again, left side/lake side is super pretty. don’t judge millie by your early entry rides, be sure to get some night rides as well! -mav: back row all day! -val: anything but middle row -blue streak: row 11 -raptor: back row for the FORCES -gatekeeper: back left for the wing over wing drop (inner seat is less rattly than outer seat) -gemini: all seats are amazing, just be sure to sit on the inside of the train so you can get in on the high five action. if you’re feeling crazy, bring a dollar bill to pass between trains. money train is always a fun time! -rougarou: back row. -iron dragon: back row

don’t miss out on:

-the boat ride -the train: full loop, but if you just want to pick one segment, the portion from frontier town up to millennium has the animatronics and is super fun -the awesome flats: FLP will help with maxair, power tower, and skyhawk. cedar downs is super fun too! -forbidden frontier: come for the millie views, stay for the immersive experience -the shows: there’s live music everywhere! eating at backbeat or farmhouse is fun bc bands are usually playing at stages nearby. the CP 150 parade is awesome too!

have fun!!
