I waited about the same as Passholder Preview Day: Diamondback: 80 minutes-still at 2 trains Beast: 70 minutes-how many trains does Beast normally run? I feel like they're one train short. Or, there's just so much Fast Lane and that's why it feels like the line doesn't move

Today it is... OPEN!!!

I had two meals today, Enrique's and Coney BBQ. Both were good and the staff gave LOTS of food today. Highly unusual for me, but I'm all for more food!

Here are some more video bits I captured today. The stairs are cool as well as the red pulsing IMG_6329.mp4 IMG_6331.mp4

Thank you and I agree. You must see it in person. Here is the clip. PXL_20250419_183749675.mp4

I am happy to upload them to our galleries @BB1. Fence photo!

Mine did last Saturday.

Just now, sitting in the brake run of Diamondback. "We'll go ride The Beast next. It's so old no one rides it. We'll get right on it."

well - at least that WinterFest leftover will make some sense now

Dang straight. Absolutely love this sandwich. Plus, with the remodel of French Corner, it should actually be open this year!

The renovation of Monster Plantation to Monster Mansion is one of the major miracles of dark ride history. Somehow at Six Flags park circa 2008 (not exactly the best of times for the chain) decided to put that much money and effort into a slow-moving, animatronic-heavy boat ride with original characters. This goes to show that if park management believes in something enough they can make it happen.

You are right.

This was always a stronger attraction that Phantom Theatre. It is sad though that by the end, the park saw a better use of funds in replacing instead of refurbishment, but I think a lot of that had to do with the fact that so little upkeep had been those last few years that the cost was too great.

One of the best food items on the dining plan is the Boom Boom Shrimp Po Boy at French Corner. You can get a side of Canun pasta salad (best option ) or homemade chips. This is the best hidden gem for the park as the wait time is usually minimal as many pass this location and it gives an enjoyable view of the Eiffel Tower and eating outside is like a small cafe in Paris. And if you time it out right you can listen to a show on the bandstand during the summer. A + for this location and food. I highly recommend it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's right, they are still included on the dining plan. The out-of-pocket price is $20.99 for the "premium" meats and $19.99 for the others, if I remember correctly.

I believe they are still included in the dining plan. CP the premium entrees are included.

That's news to me...so sad because the rotisserie chicken was my favorite!

Guessing for the Liberty Bell topiary.

Could maybe hold a sign of some kind?

Two posts have appeared in the circular planter between International Showplace and the Eiffel Tower:

This might be old news but we noticed Coney BBQ lists rotisserie chicken and burnt ends as "premium" meats and they cost one dollar more than the other entrees. Farmhouse and Grand Pavilion at Cedar Point have similar "premium" entrees but I don't remember seeing that at Kings Island before.

Yes DB still running 2 trains today. Racer still one train with only red side open, at least before noon. Park is moderately busy with 15 minute waits on most of the coasters. Lots of school groups here today Edit: Blue side opening now

After 2am, the youngsters are allowed back in LOL https://www.wcpo.com/news/local-news/hamilton-county/cincinnati/the-banks-announces-a-new-policy-limiting-access-to-the-public-plaza-area-for-people-21-years-and-older

From the looks of the web cam, Diamondback is still running 2 trains. I know this because the train that comes in doesn't stop immediately when it hits the break run, but continues on where the other train would be sitting in the break run
