    Hmm, did you not watch the 1-minute video snippet @BoddaH1994  linked in his post above yours that he posted 4 hours before your post :P  Or are you simply summarizing his 1 minute analysis on the PR situation in this video for those that don't want to watch a 1 minute clip LOL (actually it was a 1-minute, 22 second clip that points out what you posted in a funny way)...

    And for those thinking that @BoddaH1994 was simply relinking the KI Team video, think again and watch this clip LOL.

     

    I was reiterating that the park has been pretty silent, and then after Ryan and Don discussed this on the episode, not much later the park comes out with this video.

    I honestly think it’s a good thing. I don’t think they are needed. Been going 20 years and how many times do I need ambassador? 0, never knew they existed. Thus imo don’t need them to function. 

    The Park Ambassadors are one of those things you never know you need until you do.  Many people, including my family, have benefitted from their kindness.  Please don't discount the many guests and associates whose days have been made better by the Park Ambassadors.

  3. If true, this is absolutely disgusting.  We had one ambassador take care of us when one of our boys got a really bad nosebleed after riding The Beast a couple of years ago.  He stayed with us in the restroom, made sure we were taken care of, and then even gave us a free front of the line pass for our family after all was okay.  These are the types of interactions that guests remember.  If the ambassadors are truly gone, a piece of what makes Kings Island special, at least for my family, is now gone.  A very sad day.

    Dollywood has often been know to extend hours "day of" based on attendance. KI needs to be able to respond more quickly. I get closing early, but last Friday December 8 (with almost 2 hr waits for train) should've definitely been oushed to a 11 pm close. Im a little confused why this week of daily ops (with mostly decent looking weather) isn't set for 4pm opens and 11 close at least Friday and Saturday for the last 2 nights before Christmas. 

    What time did you do the train with a 2 hour wait?  We were there that night as well.  Watched the parade in Coney by the arcade then went to the train.  Waited 10 minutes.

    With that said, I am not disagreeing with you at all.  I totally would love to see extended ours, particularly with the nicer weather we have been having this year.

    This way it will encourage people instead to do the decorating cookies or buy fudge or some other treat :P  (being sarcastic but it could be their thought process too LOL).

    Very true.  We typically do the cookie decorating, however, this year is should have been called "Decorate a Rock" with Mrs. Claus.

    The thing that rubbed me the wrong way was that they did not let anyone into the park until 6pm. No preshow at all. I was in line since 5:46 and didn't get into the park until 6:11.

    Yep.  Totally agree.  We pulled into the lot at 545 and I figured we’d be good to get up and scan in pretty quickly.  We scanned in about 610.

    The new haunt (alien) is pretty decent.  However, the line was HORRIBLE.  There is about 3 minutes in between groups due to the pre show, rules, etc.  We were 2 1/2 queues back in the line and it took an hour.

    Also agree about the PG-13-ness of the atmosphere.  I mean, when you have a family with a dad carrying a 1 year old through a haunted attraction, that says it all.
