How to Save Money at Chain Parks

There are several amusement and theme park chains throughout North America. Many of these chains, though, are very expensive. Today, I wanted to show you ways that you can save money from some of these major chain parks.


First, I wanted to talk about Six Flags. After looking at the prices, the cheapest Membership prices are at Six Flags Over Georgia. Here, the Diamond Membership costs $10.99 per month. The Deluxe Member Dining is $4.90 per month. The Flash Pass Plan costs $8.29 per month. The monthly subtotal here is $26.88. If you factor in the Sales Tax, it is about $28.50. For one year, it is $342. That is kind of expensive, but not much in comparison to something like Disney or Universal.


Next, I want to talk about Cedar Fair. Some people will tell you that the Platinum Pass costs the same at every park. When I was looking into it, some sell it for $202 and some sell it for $207. The main difference from park to park in price is when it comes to add ons. The cheapest costs by far for add ons come from Dorney Park.


Let's compare Cedar Point and Dorney Park's passes and Add Ons. The Platinum Pass for Cedar Point is the same cost at Dorney Park. The All Season Dining, though, is $30 Cheaper at Dorney Park. All Season Drinks cost the same at both parks. Dorney, though, doesn't sell Platinum FastLane Plans.


Next, let's look at SeaWorld. The Annual Passes at SeaWorld Orlando, SeaWorld San Diego, Busch Gardens Tampa, and Busch Gardens Williamsburg all cost $369. The Annual Pass at Sesame Place costs $252, usually. The best value, though, comes from SeaWorld San Antonio. They sell the Platinum Pass for $160, which is an amazing deal.


Next, I want to show you a great deal from Fun Spot. They aren't a big chain, but they have a good deal. You see, if you pay $100, you can get to their parks in Kissimmee, Orlando, and Atlanta. A One Day Ticket is $45, so if you go to Fun Spot Kissimmee then Fun Spot Orlando on a trip to Florida, you can get to both parks with just one pass.


Finally, let's talk about Palace Entertainment. They now sell a Platinum Pass. The best deal is from Noah's Ark Water Park in Wisconsin Dells. There, it is currently on sale for $120. Otherwise, though, they are all the same price ($160)


In conclusion, if you want to go on a large US trip, you should get the Season Passes from Six Flags Over Georgia, any Fun Spot park, Dorney Park, and SeaWorld San Antonio.
