This was a great roller coaster! It is one of the smoothest rides at the park and it is very fun. With lots of twist and turns this ride makes you want to go on it again and again. In fact after this ride me and my group decided to go on again. I highly recommend going on this ride many times!!!

Some say that this is short, but I personally dont know what theyre talking about. Great rides every time I go on Six Flags only B+M Wing!

Decent ride. Would be much better if it werent for the vest restraints that squeeze down on you to the point where you can barely breath and they really dig into youre collar bones. Other than that its a fun ride but not the best ride in the park.

Excellent roller coaster, ESPECIALLY from the front seat. That 90 degree bank before the first drop is awesome. Very quiet ride compared to Raging Bull or Batman

Great little B+M Wing coaster and a nice addition to Great America. Its place right in the center of the park and is a fantastic and smooth ride. My suggestion is to ride on the left wing as its a little more forceful.

Believe it or not but this ride is actually better than gatekeeper at cedar point. The pace for X Flight is phenomenal! Gatekeeper doesn’t have a fast pace like X Flight does. The inversions were sick especially the roll that goes through the building. Has a nice little helix at the end of the ride. This ride is definitely 5 stars in my book and can’t wait to ride it again this summer

This is a next generation roller coaster. Not the fastest but by far the smoothest ride around.

This is by far my favorite ride!! The line isnt INSANELY long, its usually around 30-45 minutes long. The only scary part is the hill, which is really steep. The whole ride is intense, so maybe 9-11 yrs and up? Lots on spinny, very high, no floor.

I enjoyed the ride but theres something about it that doesnt sit well. I feel like this ride should bring excitement when I see it but it doesnt. One should get happy like they do seeing Raging Bull but X-Flight doesnt bring that spark for me to give it 5 stars.

X-Flight is a great roller coaster it feels safe, smooth, and is fast.

I don’t Understand why other enthusiasts call this rough. Ignore them. This is a fun and smooth ride

SUCH A FUN RIDE!!! You go on twists and turns, then upside down. It’s a very fast and enjoyable roller coaster. It even has an area where it sprays you with mist, during the ride. Would definitely recommend.

Definitely one of my favorite rides in the park. The line is well designed with a good amount of shade and a great view of the ride. The wait time is often about an hour but can drop to almost nothing late in the day when people try to get in one last ride at the Goliath or Raging Bull. An interesting characteristic of the ride is its two sided cart, this means that the line splits and leads to two platforms. The X Flight is suspended like Batman and fully utilizes it. For most of the ride, you have the feeling that your legs are about to be chopped off. Although somewhat short, there are nonstop turns at a high speed. The smoothness of the ride and the quantity of turns and rolls makes the ride just great.

Like it’s fine but like now that it’s 6 years old it’s rough. Actually the only ride at the park that gave me a bit of a headache. Kinda dumb.

DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU GO ON IT AT NIGHT! My friends and I went on it a few days after Fourth of July and as we were going up the lift hill there were fireworks. Also, they have the coaster lit up which made it beautiful!

Ever since I heard about this coaster, it has always been my dream to ride it. On youtube, it doesnt look bad. Once I saw it up close in person, I had second thoughts. I went anyway and when I sat in a seat, I was like, Get me off of this thing! But when I started riding it, I was never gonna doubt this thing again! :)

Cool coaster with well paced inversions resulting in nice hanging. The long inline twist through the key hole is fantastic

X-Flight gives you the elements of Batman! It feels like you are flying on the wings of a plane! Best wing coaster in the U.S.!

EXCELLENT! I loved it. However, the audio that plays before the ride is so aggravating. Same with Raging Bull.

Actually better than GateKeeper. The compact layout works in its favor and delivers an intense wing ride.

This ride was kinda fun but not really. Wasnt worth wait.

Im not trolling trying to hate this thing. I literally stopped at Cedar Point on the way to Great America so it would be easy to determint team Gatekeeper or team X-Flight. It turns out that probably wasent necessary because this is by far the roughest B&M coaster I have ever ridden. I wanted to be team X Flight because I dont like letting the Cedar Point fanboys have their way. But there is no redeeming quality of this ride I can think of except that it isnt as bad as a B&M stand up coaster.
