If you are going to go to Six Flags I recommend signing up for the membership. We have the Platinum and it works out well for our family - it covers parking which is usually $30/ visit and also provides you with a decent discount at the vendors in the park. Go early, around opening time, if you want to ride any rides....after about 12pm the traffic starts to pick up and the wait times get a little out of hand. Eat before you go as the food prices are high...at Johnny Rockets they have a family meal deal - 4 burgers, 4 fries, 4 onion rings and 4 drinks for $50...it tasted better than McDs, but I don't feel the value is really there for the price point. Don't fall for the carnival games and if you like pictures pay for the photo membership - it gives you unlimited ride photos - happy memories. For most it's a once in a lifetime trip, but for locals definitely get the membership if you plan on going throughout the year - ends up being cheaper than paying for a one day ticket.
