Hello! I am going to be traveling to King's Island at the end of July with some of my family for a vacation. I haven't been there since the 80's, and I was a kid then, and things have definitely changed - both for me, and the park. I have end stage renal disease and anemia, as well as just recently had surgery on my foot, so I will more than likely need handicapped assistance. We were discussing whether or not to take my scooter with us to the park, which from what I have read online sounds like a big resounding yes, but I did have some questions... We were thinking of staying at the King's Island Resort and notice they have a bus to transport back and forth to the park. I know that it'd be cheaper to do that, but does anyone know where they drop off at and/or if they transport scooters? Also - does King's Island allow you to bring your own scooter to the park? Do they have handicapped-accessible parking? I know I read somewhere to talk to guest relations once you get there, but if I have no plan on riding any of the rides, so don't need a pass, is there any reason to go there? My enjoyment would come from seeing a kid we are taking with us see his first amusement park. Also - one of my siblings has Type 1 diabetes and needs insulin. I noticed mentions of metal detectors - I am assuming that you'd be able to bring in a bag for medical supplies (normally we use a small purse)? For someone who is not going to be going on the rides, is there a lot to do? I am just trying to get prepared for all things and, to be honest, as a kid all you pay attention to are the rides. Thanks in advance!
