Are you flying from Iowa to NJ? Otherwise it looks like you're missing a couple parks and KI looks like its just completely out of the way with this route.

Yeah I'm dropping off my car at Newark Airport and getting a rental and I'll be flying back from Des Moines. I just have to make sure they have the same rental agency in Des Moines.

And yeah Kings Island is technically out of the way, but I'm getting a hotel in Louisville and I will just drive there and back (or just find a hotel in between KI and Holiday World). It isn't really about the route it's more about the convenience off of the route. Dollywood is actually the one out of the way, but I just couldn't resist.

Also, I don't think I'm missing any parks. The only park that seems like it should be hit is Lake Winnie, but I decided to pass on that and save it for another trip. Same for Carowinds if you wanted to argue that. I've already hit all of the major Pennsylvannia parks, so I'll just be driving past them to get to my starting point.

With flying on the return trip, I agree with not missing any parks. It was if you were driving would be going right through SFGAm, and the string of PA parks. But as you said you have already been to all the PA parks, and nobody seems to be adding anything this year there isn't much point.

I have Carowinds Confirmed on June 13th or 14th then Dollywood and pigeon Forge stuff from June 15th through the 18th

Updated 2016 Trip Plans

Confirmed
Valleyfair
Michigan's Adventure

I'm moving forward with a plan to go to Busch Gardens Williamsburg, Kings Dominion, Dollywood, and Lake Winnie this June.

stealing VF's format, but...

Confirmed
Six Flags Great America (obviously)
Holiday World (yearly tradition for Holiwood Nights)
Indiana Beach (a must since it has new owners!)

Probably
Six Flags St. Louis (pre-SFGAm-season)
Nickelodeon Universe (Soarin' over Minnesota/damn Shredder ride was closed during my whole December trip)

Maybe
Cedar Point (if other people are going)
Knoebels (really wanna do Phoenix Phall Phunfest again)
Valleyfair (depends if I decide to go to Minnesota when it's open)

Already Visited
Disneyland Park (21st birthday trip!)
Disney's California Adventure

Confirmed trips:
0

Planned trips:
Efteling
Liseberg
Walibi Holland
Tysenfrud

Future trips:
Phantasialand
Europa park
Cedar Point
And much more

[Mr. Freeze]

Possible trips:
Disney World
Universal Orlando
SWO
Six Flags Fiesta Texas
SWSA
Cedar Point (hopefully during coasterthon if all goes as planned with financial stuff)
And countless trips to Six Flags Over Texas (work mostly)

Well, this is the idea....
It should take about a month!
If I can get a month off during the end of summer I'll go for it. I've saved up for awhile now, so I should be fine there. Its just the time
Its either this or a month in europe
I would do both back to back (year apart) if work would allow it!
I don't know if retail would allow such a long absence.

I decided to scratch Michigan's Adventure from the trip plans. I'm hoping to replace it with both Holiday World and Kentucky Kingdom.

January
Six Flags Magic Mountain (completed)

April
Adventureland

May
Cedar Point
Hersheypark
Six Flags Great Adventure
GaleForcePark



That's it for now. There will probably be something in August and December too. And there will be many trips to Adventureland this season.

It's likely more cuts will come over the next couple months as I finalize my plans. Most likely, I will do all the California parks plus a Deep South trip and one of the following long weekend trips: Pacific Northwest, San Antonio, or Florida. I've also decided to delay any potential Mid-West or North East trips to future years.

my destinations for 2016 are:

Dollywood
Cedar Point
Holiday World
Silver Dollar City
Worlds of fun

If everything goes well with work. I'm doing a US trip starting end June:

30-6: Arrival Houston. Kemah Boardwalk & ZDT's Amusement park
1-7: Six Flags Fiesta Texas & Six Flags Over Texas. (Been to both parks in wintertime. So only missed out a few coasters)
2-7: Magic Springs & Crystal Falls
3-7: Silver Dollar City
4-7: Frontier City
5-7: Worlds of Fun
6-7: Six Flags St. Louis
7-7: John Ivers (Blue too/Blue Flash), Holiday World
8-7: Kentucky Kingdom/Holiday World

11-7: Little Amerrica & Timber Falls
12-7: Mt. Olympus
13-7: Nickelodeon Universe
14-7: Valleyfair
15-7: Six Flags Great America
16-7: Six Flags Great America , Flying back home from Chicago.

Note: This is still a rough schedule, we're still planning out all the details.

That's a really wild trip, Dirk. It's really shocking to me that you're going to SFFT and SFOT in the same day. I would rather spend all day at SFFT and forget that SFOT exists. And also KK and HW in the same day too?

[mkingy]

Pretty much settled my remaining Trips for 2016
+Alton Towers
+Thorpe Park
+Liseberg
+Phantasialand & Movie Park Germany

Still potential:
Dreamland & Adventure Island

[Paradox]

Potential Trip:

Kings Dominion
BGW
Carowinds
Dollywood

SFFT wasn't that special on our last visit. So we'll probably just ride the few missed rides and re-ride them depending on the crowds and how much fun they are. Also there is a good opportunity we'd might hop in the final hour the day before as well. Which gives us a good head-start as well.

KK and HW perhaps on the same day due hearing about how quiet KK apparently is. Another reason for this would be because we're visiting HW as well the day before.

Next week I'm going on a trip where I'll be visiting BGW, KD, & SFA.
