I'll be there this weekend. What's up with The Bat? I'll be bummed if both Adventure Express and Zombie Flight Deck are closed

Yeah each 2023 Gold Pass gets you FLP

So I bought 5 of these. $650 before the processing fee. The Fast Lane Plus freebie is nice regardless of how busy. So I'll be in Cincy from around 5PM Thursday until Sunday. I can pop into the park on Thursday and get our photos taken. I wish there was interstate connection from Huntington/Ashland to Cincinnati. The AA is pretty fast all things considered but interstate grade travel would cut off 30 minutes of travel time. Most visits I want hotel accommodations now that I'm older.

Awesome! I appreciate the info. I'm about to buy 5 Gold Passes today. So I can just do the photos at the park or is it best to go ahead and do them?

But this Friday, the 19th should be OK?

So I am planning a visit this Friday, August 19th and was just going to buy daily tickets however with the Gold Pass sale I'm really, really tempted to buy the Gold Passes and just do installments. I have a few questions and maybe someone can give me insight. With my down payment and installment agreement the rest of 2022 is included, right? Is there a blackout of wait period? I see there is a free Fast Lane Plus for 2022 included as well. Anyone have any experience using the installment plans for Gold Passes? I live around 2 hours from King's Island but 2 or 3 visits in 2023 and it's paid for itself and the perks seem really, really awesome. Plus it's kind of nice that I can get my visit this Friday for like $100 down payment instead of almost $300 for one day tickets (there are 5 of us). Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Just wondering what kind of crowds show up for opening day. I know it depends on the weather, etc. Also has anyone used Hotwire for hotels around the park?

Yeah but the weather scared everyone away from the water rides so that made the other lines twice as long it seemed. Didn't even ride Diamondback when I was there yesterday.

I already booked my hotel for Friday night (Cheapest I could find online was $48 in Miamisburg!). Everything else was so expensive closer to Cincinnati. Must be a lot going on this weekend. I know the rain will scare a few guests off but I still hope the sun shines so I can ride the water rides.

What kind of rain should I expect in Mason on Saturday with the stated forecast?

I'm on the other side of Kentucky (Ashland) and haven't seen them in my local Kroger.

Where can I find the $23.99 coupons?

Trying to go on May 1st and just wondering if anywhere in Cincinnati has single days tix cheaper than the 33.99 online price. I'm about 2 hours east of Cincy and none of these deals happen until summer in my area.

For real. I know there are a lot of people that want "non-gimmicky" stuff but if you have been on one B&M invert... If SoB goes I want an Intamin coaster with a launch that will melt my face off.

The only thing I fear on a B&M hyper is getting hit in the face with a bird.

Two pieces of LaRosa's on Son of Beast.

There is always the 2 piece deal from LaRosa's.

And Tampa too. For an example of what makes a park bad see Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom.

I don't understand why the basketballs get on everyone's nerves so badly. I have never encountered anyone with one in line, just people bouncing them while walking down the paths. Doesn't bother me at all. It's a theme park. People are loud and annoying. It happens.

When I visited KI earlier this year my brother and his wife were stuck on Delirium for about 20 minutes. The ride had finished but something had happened. The worst part was standing at the exit with their 10 month old baby waiting on a parent swap. They shut it down for about half an hour and I just waited in line all over again later in the day.

Pick a cloudy day to go then. What a great solution.

Not really. Vortex is terribly uncomfortable too.

The problem with the line for Firehawk is that it's too hot. When the sun is beating down on you it's miserable.

I'm too tall to ride the LNM comfortably to be honest.

So BBW is at the end of it's life cycle yet Lochness Monster isn't?
