How to Purchase Your Six Flags Season Pass
You can purchase your Six Flags Season Pass in full or with a payment plan directly from theSix Flags site, the Six Flags app, or in person at the park.
Spread Out Your Season Pass Payments Over Several Months
Six Flagsoffers the FlexiblePay payment option which allowsvisitors tospread their Season Pass Payments over6 months, rather than needing to pay it all at once.
How FlexiblePay works:
- Pay a 1 Time Initial Fee at Check Out
- Pay 5 Fixed Monthly Payments Starting the Next Month After Your Initial Fee Was Paid
- For Example:
- Month 1 = $20 Initial Fee
- Month 2-6 = $17 Monthly Payment
If you later decide you'd rather pay the balance off in full, you can also do so through their payment portal.
Pay For Your Six Flags Season Pass in Full
FlexiblePayisn't the only option to purchase your Season Pass, as you can also choose to pay the full price in one payment instead.
You'll simply select 'I would like to pay for mySeason Pass in full today', review the total amount, and checkout (rather than reviewing the monthly paymentbreakdown and agreeing to those terms).
