Trail Blazer Passes
« on: July 16, 2015, 12:40:58 PM »
Anyone know if you can buy Trailblazer passes after 6pm during Moonlight Madness?  I'm wondering if I could buy a single day ticket, enter the park after 3 for the next day free.  Then use a trailblazer pass to knock out the rides with the longest lines and use the free day to enjoy the park.  I think during Moonlight Madness though, the next day free is if you enter after 6. 

Thanks In Advance!

I'm not aware of any time restriction for buying them, but if they're actually needed then they'll probably be sold out by then. From what I remember, sometimes the booth closes down anyway due to slow sales.

If you purchase the full price ticket and enter after 3pm on your first visit you can come back the next day with no additional charge; that offer goes through October 29th.  If you enter on the Moonlight Madness ticket at 5pm it is only good for that evening unless you upgrade it to a season pass or purchase a come back ticket at the Rental Booth.  And yes, they have trailblazers available all day long.

Has anyone else seen that you are able to purchase a Season Pass Trailblazer good for all season long?? Its a cool 150.00 and will allow for unlimited line cutting all season!!

That's actually pretty neat!  It's not a bad price either if it is the Super Pass version.  Use it more than twice and it's paid for itself.  The downside of course is how it could affect ride wait times for regular folk that don't have the Trailblazer pass.

Well, at that price, I'd imagine there wouldn't be a whole lot of people buying/using it.

Although there is not much of a reason to need this pass I despise the idea. 
The Show lovers pass falls right in next to it.  Charging twice.......

This is seriously obnoxious. There should be no fast pass/trailblazer pass to begin with. Now this updated all year line cutting card??? Not cool. Not cool at all.

Isn't this ON TOP of your season-pass? I don't see how it "pays for itself, if you use it more than twice."
You have a great past just ahead of you.

It is an added cost. And only good for ONE person, not a family. And how does it pay for itself?? Standing in line is free. So the way I see it is just putting you in the hole.  :-\

It  would be a cost savings if you were to visit the park several times and buy one each time you went. Just like a season pass saves over purchasing several 1 day admissions. I don't see a problem if that's how you want to spend your money.
