Six Flags America vs Six Flags St Louis

Six Flags America sits in Bowie, Maryland, between Washington D.C. and Baltimore. The coaster line-up includes Superman: Ride of Steel (a 205-foot hyper coaster), Wild One wooden coaster, Joker's Jinx multi-launch coaster, Ragin' Cajun spinning coaster, and Batwing flying coaster. A Hurricane Harbor water park is included with admission during summer.

DC and Baltimore weekend visits, Maryland school holidays, and the Fright Fest event drive most of the park's busy days. Weekdays in May, September and October stay dramatically calmer, with queue times on most coasters dropping to 10 minutes or less. Check live wait times for Superman and Wild One on arrival, and use our crowd calendar to pick a lower-crowd date for shorter waits across the coaster line-up.

Six Flags St. Louis sits in Eureka, Missouri, 30 minutes south-west of downtown St. Louis. The coaster line-up includes Mr. Freeze: Reverse Blast, Boss (a large wooden coaster), Superman: Tower of Power drop tower, American Thunder wooden coaster, and Batman: The Ride. A Hurricane Harbor water park is included with admission during summer.

Missouri school holidays, Fright Fest and Holiday in the Park events drive Six Flags St. Louis's peak crowds. Weekdays in May, September and October stay much calmer, with queue times on most rides dropping into single digits. Check live wait times for Boss and Mr. Freeze first thing on arrival, and use our crowd calendar to pick a quieter midweek date for marathon coaster sessions.
