Tips And Tricks To Outsmart Everyone At The Theme Park
- Take zip lock bags for your phone and valuables on water rides
- Take a picture of your parking spot
- Walk through the park backwards to try to avoid the biggest lines
- If you have kids, write your name and number on their wrist or on a tag on them, so they can be found if lost
- Go on rides during a parade or fireworks show
- If you’re traveling alone, look for the single riders line to get on sooner.
- Go left! A lot of people go right in lines, sometimes it’s better to go left
