Just went to book a day or two at Magic Mountain for my son's 8th grade graduation. Prices are very cheap for MM right now, so we thought we'd give it a go. We're always driving by it on the way to DL, and all my kids are finally over the height minimum for everything. So we're giving it a go.
They do have a reservation system in place, like all other theme parks. But it's a little different and I can't say that I like it. Yes, you have to reserve the day. But you also have to reserve the time you arrive. Didn't know that until I bought the tickets. The day we get there, the park opens at 10:30am. However, I won't be able to get into until 11:15am. Talk about missing prime ride time. Next day, I could only snag 11am. So we'll be getting off to slow starts. Hopefully, the crowd is limited enough to where we can still ride most of the good ones there.
You can only see the reservation times once you have a ticket/pass number to input, so you have no idea until after you get the ticket. Not a super fan of that. Just wanted you all to be aware.
