  1. My biggest pet peeve about KI WF is that they don’t have operations in the first few weekends of the year. Seeing KK take this on and put up more time for their Christmas event is a very positive nod at their prospects of resilience for the season. I would be very interested to see how KI reacts if at all.
  2. This just made my day! I’m glad to hear that the park actually saw this was an issue and made corrective action same day. Faith in CF restored!
  3. I’m still confused on why we now have 3 conflicting reports. Shouldn’t this be on an internal cheat sheet? Is there this much of a disconnect that mgt>associate>corporate communications are misaligned? I have receipts, I can even show when I called in my contacts last night. Why is this such a quagmire?
  4. "Season Pass benefits subject to change without notice. If you plan to visit other Cedar Fair parks with the purchase of an All Park Passport Add-On - Gold and Prestige Passholder benefits may vary by park. Contact the park you are planning to visit for any questions regarding applicable benefits." So this is the fall back the chain is using moving forward. I'm honestly not impressed by the counter point of saying you get your platinum pass benefits and then turning around and removing the one benefit helping you make the decision. Color me not impressed.
  5. I was able to watch a full run through the first night. I enjoyed it, loved the King Gator float the most. Which to be honest the parades at Universal have always been more exciting for me than the more recently lackluster Disney parades. (Everything after the Mulan/Aladdin/Toy Story/Hercules/Mainstreet Electrical parades I haven't been too keen on. Bourne was one of those attractions I didn't think I would care for but genuinely enjoyed. I would still cast my lot for Velocicoaster and that's definitely not because of late night back row rides that just so happen to use my Express pass after 4.
  6. Hello fellow KIC enthusiasts! I thought I would make this discussion to look at the current happenings in the Universal Orlando Resort including the theme parks, City Walk, hotels and more while also getting ready for Epic Universe to open up! I go down to USOR at least once every 3 months and having went down two weekends ago (the last time being the weekend of the 17th in December which of course it rained then too) I was able to experience Mardi Gras for 2024. Drinks were decent, not as good as the HHN line up of course, but the gumbo was still spectacular. The tribute store was honestly far more than I anticipated, from a turn of the century paddle steam ship, to the ruins of said ship to the swampy home of the Baron Ton Ton. There were several amazingly placed effects that you honestly have to see in person. What are some of your thoughts on the current state of the Universal Orlando Resort?
  7. Per Wayback machine screenshot in 2023 season. You had access to free general parking at Knotts Berry Farms with a Platinum Pass, Knotts Berry Farms themselves confirmed that you cannot park for free with APPGP. Very, very, very upsetting for what I'm paying for and being effectively misinformed per KI's website OR there is a massive miscommunication chain wide.
  8. I’m going to be making some calls this week as this has got to be arguably the biggest let down of this change. I was OK with the concept of still getting my platinum pass perks with an APPGP, but if I’m actually losing out on an old perk when I was originally told otherwise is honestly upsetting. I wonder, as it seems to be a copy pasta, if CF corporate has any idea that this is actually happening. Or, if they do, why they have yet to communicate that your perks do not equally translate to the new pass.
  9. Knotts proper they stated verbatim that gold APP does not apply for parking at Knotts Berry Farms.
  10. Just got a 404 error after posting with quoted text in the post itself. I don't know if it was due to the text or how but just wanted to give you a heads up!
  11. Does the All Park Passport add-on give me the same benefits as a Platinum Pass? At this point I'm half tempted to call Kings Island or Knotts to confirm this policy as if this is not true I am going to have to upgrade. I was told verbatim that I get the same benefits of a platinum pass when I purchase the 2024 Gold Pass and the all park passport addon. If this isn't true, then I'm going to have to re-evaluate my pass moving forward as the value of the Platinum pass includes that parking availability. Update: Just called the park, GP APP does not include the parking benefit as stated on the Kings Island website that your platinum pass originally had. Prestige passholders get free parking however. Very upsetting as I was planning to either fly or road trip out to Knotts
  12. If at all possible a hat with snapback would be greatly appreciated. It doesn’t have to be a flat bill, but something like a trucker hat would be something I’m open to buying in the future. Also, even though I never wear t shirts outside of under hoodies/sweaters or working out, the KIC t shirt has held up pretty well over the years!
  13. You’re the one everyone at work comes to for KI info and theme parks in general…..Doesn’t help when you wear your KI 50th jacket to work either.
  14. It has a pretty small taproom, but the mead selection is amazing. The beer is typically solid, I enjoy their Pilsner but they have a lot of exotic beers like milkshake IPA’s that I’m not a major fan on. It’s a perk to have a brewery/meadery this side of the river and the location is close to work to stop off on Friday evenings too.
  15. Honestly for this off season I’ve tried to do something different every weekend. We have Cincy Beerfest this weekend & the zoo lined up, but there’s also a few new breweries I have to hit up before the spring. (And a few I need to go back to like Fabled) Also I finally bought Planet Zoo and it is arguably my most played game besides Baldur’s Gate 3 for 2024.
