Why didn't you add 365 days in front of it then?

Current wait time for Orion: 47 hours, and 55 minutes lol Also the red headline says 2023 not 2024

Planning complete:

Please use this thread to update wait times for the 2024 season! Please remember a ride going down is normal and it's okay to report, but please don't post "Riders are stuck on the lift hill of DB." A vague statement like that is not helpful and that is when the media starts calling the park. We hope you are excited to get the 2024 season started. This season we celebrate 4 different anniversary seasons. 10th for Banshee 15th for Diamondback 25th for Invertigo 45th for The Beast With the addition of Camp Snoopy and a new Vekoma roller coaster to ride later this Spring, it is sure to be a great season! The KIC Admin looks forward to seeing everyone at the park this season.

I think a troll would be someone with no skin in the game. You have said that you no longer have passes and your main park was CP, correct? And that you no longer frequent the parks? So you've moved on? When most people have moved in to other things, they don't stay on forums and argue with the majority of posters ad nauseum. This is the only internet specific forum site I'm on, and while you may stick around to ruffle feathers, I'm debating on putting you on "ignore" status or watching what you post for some humor.

I'm probably one of the few that misses it. I will say that I am grateful for Orion and in terms of re-rideability and enjoyment, Orion is definitely the winner here. But that doesn't negate the fact that I do miss Firehawk. It was something different compared to the rest of the coaster line-up and with there not being a ton of flying coasters out there in general/especially Vekoma Flying Dutchmen, it was unique in that regard. Not to mention it being a GL transplant, it had some history behind it. Sad that it couldn't be relocated, but understandable. Maybe some day we will see a new Vekoma flying coaster stateside.

@IndyGuy4KI are you planning on making a ride wait times thread for this season like you usually do? -

I have 3 or 4 family members buried in this cemetery. My great-aunt was even asked, quite some years ago, for permission to move the graves. I'm guessing she declined. We moved away from there in the 80's but I'll be back in September and am going to go see it.

Worlds of Fun antique car models

I wish we could get some of our originals back from WOF. I believe paramount sold ours to WOF. -
They would probably give us the dilapidated version But with a dance floor, they could provide an upcharge dance event!
-
I think it would be great idea if they made a smaller Moonlight Gardens replica for an indoor VIP area . . without the dance floor . This could pay a little homage to Coney Island in the process. I think I remember reading the wrought iron was stored at Kings Island once. So maybe they thought about doing this at one time??

Looks like a classic case of paranoia or egotism (or both) thinking everyone is talking about you.... Actually I wasn't referring to you as you haven't given off ADA attorney wannabe vibes with posts demonstrating misinterpretations of basic HIPAA laws, so who should be paying rent now.... Your Ad hominem nonsense is insufferable...do better....Sad.....
-
Yes, this. The ability to ban people is likely just to lay the groundwork to prevent abuse. It'll likely only be used in extreme cases, but when they need to use it, the park will be on solid ground to enforce it. You really oughta be charging me rent for living in your head. Lotta lost revenue there. Sad!

The soccer game was switched to the axe throwing game last season.
-
Is "Axe Axe Baby" an axe-throwing game? It appears to be replacing the soccer game under Diamondback. Also, has the Coca-Cola Refresh at the train always been called "Libation Station"?

Gotcha. I knew I wouldn’t have any available, I was thinking it would show in the app what could be earned.

Haha, I won't join the "legalese" subset of the forum. I just wanted to point out that Disney would never word the policy "if we catch you faking a disability you are banned for life." That could put pressure on disabled people and their loved ones to go out of their way to display ongoing proof that they actually have one. "Lying about a disability" is more flexible and shifts the spotlight/ culpability if needed. Disney probably paid crazy money to lawyers and mental health professionals to craft perfect wording for the new policy.

Read the article about it on Kings Island web site. It goes by how many visits you go in May and those perks will be available June 1st.
-
^I am sure our attorney member will weigh in if using the word "faking it" is materially/legally different than a lie or exaggeration But the point is they plan to ban anyone abusing the system, whether it be faking, lying, exaggerating, etc. Now the difficulty is how to prove it. No matter what procedure they come up with, someone will find a way around it.

Unfortunately, if you give some people the possibility to exploit something at the expense of others they'll do it. Third party tour guides were banned from the park last year partly because of their role in encouraging the abuse of this policy. I hope that this change will not cause much of a problem. I'd imagine most of the thoughtless, selfish people who abused this program will know that abuse of the policy will no longer be tolerated and stop for fear of forfeiting hundreds of dollars' worth of tickets/passes and a lifetime ban. I also assume that bans will only come down when the evidence of lying/abuse is undeniable, and the benefit of the doubt will be given if at all possible, in borderline cases for bans. ** @disco2000 Just a distinction here for clarity. I don't believe the thread title is completely accurate. My understanding is that the focus of the bans will be for people who lied about a loved one's disability rather than for individuals who "faked having a disability". Some of those will be one and the same, but I think it is smart of Disney to make the enforcement based on truth vs lying in the program application process rather than making it based on determining whether someone is "faking" a disability or exaggerating its severity.
