the wait is hours on end. It would be good if there was no wait, but you should skip this ride to ride on the really good rides twice. The coaster itself is ok. The loop makes your stomach feel strange. But the restraints kill your bladder if you have to go bathroom, which is a high chance after standing in line for long.

The cousin of Bat Wing at Six Flags America, X-Flight is intense at so many levels. I love the loose, soft restraints that allow you a lot of air time. Also mentioned here was the vertical loop, which packs a whallop of force from the rear seats.

This was my first flying coaster and I loved it! It is unlike any other coaster out there, besides the long line, it was great! I loved to put my hands out and pretend I am Superman!

The loop is the most intense thrill I have ever been on! I laugh my arse off every time I ride- it is uncontrolable. The terribel themeing and station color prevent this ride from reaching its full potential- and I would have prefered to see an unique track. Ina few years Six Flags parks around the country will have one of these.

This was my first flying coaster and it exceeded what I thought it was going to be. It is pretty scary when you first turn over but it is all in thrills. You feel like you are going twice as fast as you really are and you really feel like your flying. The helixes at the end are intense. The only problem is the wait is usually very long so Id spend the 10 bucks or so and buy a fast pass.

I was very disappointed with this ride. I hated baking on the lift and the restraints were very uncomfortable. The loop was pretty cool and flipping over was pretty cool as well. Besides that, IMO, the ride just plain hurt.

I love this ride! This is my favorite ride in the park. I wasnt expecting too much, but what I got was a lot more. The lift is scarry. You are on your back starring at the whole park in front of you. Then all of a sudden you flip over and feel like your flying. I especially love the helix at the end of the ride.

loriu had it right when she said "Vekoma who?" This coaster doesnt match the quality or comfort of the B&M flyer closely at all and the overall ride is lacking when you compare it to the sensations experienced on Superman. The crew was very slow from the get go and had only a 2 train operation, but the crew was much more efficient and had three trains running on SUF. I do like the station, color scheme, and what this does have to offer though, so Im giving it a 7.

We rode this the first day it opened and the line was not worth the wait as it was constantly breaking down and I think there was only one train operating. It took almost 3 hours to get to the front and it was nowhere near as good as rides Ive waited that long for before. Right now its just really uncomfortable and too short for what its worth. Ill try it again sometime, but the day and crew at Six Flags Worlds of Adventure wasnt prepared at all. I hope its fixed now and that they put some landscaping in since it did really look hideous. Good luck for new riders and dont wait too long for it.

Disappointing for some of the weekend waits you must endure with 2 train operation, but I loved the station and ride name theming and the track and train colors were a perfect match. I wish they would add in some more scenery, landscaping, and body chopper effects in order to kind of liven up the visuals along the way. I hope Vekoma can improve on the design with a larger first drop and an intense inversion more like a B&M zero-G roll than a light Arrow corkscrew. But, the quickness where you flip over onto your stomach is exhilerating and the loop is extremely intense, so the ride gets a 7 for Vekoma and Six Flags attempting to have more variety and bigger thrills to lead us into the future of these great rides to come. I do still want to see more from both companies in the future with flying coasters and I look forward to B&Ms take at it at Six Flags over Georgia.
