Six Flags México — Attraction in Mexico City

The park is about 30 minutes away from Roma and roughly $150 peso Uber ride. We bought annual passes online only to realize they are only valid certain dates. If you buy a day pass I would recommend trying to go during the weekdays and on days where people with annual passes can’t go (shorter lines).

We arrived at 10:00 upon opening on a Wednesday, October 20th, and there were 5 cars in the parking lot. The lines for Medusa and Superman were less than 5 minutes until about 13:00 when more people started showing up to the park. Even at 13:00 the line for Superman was still around 10 minutes.

Pros: Medusa and Superman I think are better than any roller coasters at Disney and Universal. Clean park. And a day pass is roughly $25 USD. Chicken tenders and fries tasted fine.

Cons: 1. Despite speaking Spanish, a number of park staff were very rude. Even though nobody was in line for Superman behind us, Eli would not let us sit in the back row and made us go into a row. They fill in front to back so I would suggest just letting people pass you until you get a row of your choice. Other rides they accommodated letting us pick our row. 2. You cannot wear a jacket around your waist once you get near boarding a ride and you cannot place any items in the boxes next to the ride exit (reserved for refillable water bottles). It was quite hot and we would be repeatedly asked to put on our jackets despite still being a few minutes away from boarding the coaster. 3. Although I appreciate efforts to keep everyone safe from Covid, if you are sitting on a park bench or walking through a line 25 feet away from others I think it’s okay to have your mask off. Be prepared to wear your mask everywhere. Sitting at a table near dining areas is the only spot you won’t be told to wear them. 4. A part of the line for Medusa is off balanced so just be careful haha.

Recommendations: Buy a day pass, go there on days when annual passes don’t work, arrive at opening to avoid lines, only bring things that fit into your pocket (a jacket with a zipper) but be prepared to wear your jacket for a few minutes before boarding. Don’t bring a backpack or Fanny pack. Don’t buy...

The good: The Superman and Medusa are nice coasters. It's a large, clean park, and you'll get a good amount of exercise during your visit.

The bad: The lines for any good rides are crazy long, like 2 hours at best on a Weekend, and the estimated wait times posted by the entrances are so incorrect that they're not worth paying any attention to. Most times you go to the park one to the of the 4 good rides (Superman, Medusa, Batman, Crazanity) will be closed for the whole day. Crazanity has been out of commission for over a month. Rides will often be shut down while you're waiting in line. Superman and Wonder Woman have been unbelievable for the last 3-4 weeks. While sometimes this is unavoidable due to unexpected issues, they'll also do this for foreseeable closures, like the end of the day, for example.

The ugly: They don't treat their loyal customers well. After a nice visit to the park my first time, I splurged on a meal plan (pasé de alimentos). It works out to be a good value of you go to the park 10 or more times a year, but none of the employees understand how it works. Everytime l go to use it there is some issue, and I'm often told it doesn't apply in that restaurant even though it does. Even worse, one of the restaurants even told me they were supposed to bring me a worse version of the dish because I was using the meal pass (they were upset I didn't tell them I was using it at the beginning of the meal). The meal plan also lacks options and many of the options are a terrible deal. A single slice of pizza, for example, is considered a "meal". To make matters worse the restaurants frequently run out of ingredients, if they even stock them at all. "Capone's," the Italian themed restaurant sells a salad that comes with goat cheese and cherry tomatoes, at least according to the menu, but from talking to the people working in the restaurant it sounded like they never have those ingredients. I realize people don't go to Six Flags for the food, but they seem to...

(Bonus: +2 Star at the end) Third world park, focused for local people. It's a "subscription-model business" more than a thematic or attraction park. No English. Maps have cost some days. Lack of identity: Almost nothing is first party, but third party, specially restaurants (which servings are smaller and almost double the cost); the only stuff are the DC comics and Looney toons characters but only half the attractions and most of the marketing. Lying personnel: The battle for metropolis attraction got halted with customers on the 1:30 wait line. They lied to us twice, first saying that we could wait around 1 hour or less to save our already wasted time and still get in after restarting operations, but then after 10 minutes more they lied to the 30 customers already inside the building by saying we could get in, but they said that to make us move to the last exit just before entering the attraction carts (dirty trick), so we lost our "respected-but-already-wasted spent wait time". To re-kill, they punished a family that got inside the building after they lied us about "we could finally enter the game" (which, again, it was nothing but a trick to make us leave the building, so that was really unnecessary and rude looking). +2 Stars bonus: If you stay or go to the park at night or after a "sudden" rain stops, you may be lucky so to ride all roller coasters with almost no wait line (and maybe even with an "unlimited bonus"). If so, the park experience...
