2026 Q2 Report
No doubt there is a concern about being able to pay off the debt, which is still high at $4.9B Maybe the market and investors aren't buying, but average Joe and family of 4 still seem to be! The question is do we see people that say they are not buying next year actually follow thru....

2026 Q2 Report
Bottom line....people keep buying regardless of what they do.... Some highlights: As compared with the second quarter of 2025 on a Same-Park Basis: • Net revenues totaled $864 million, an increase of $20 million, or 2.4%, from $844 million. • Season-to-date pass sales increasing 7% and active pass base growing 6%. • Adjusted EBITDA was $249 million, an increase of $16 million, or 7%, from $233 million. • Attendance totaled 13.1 million visits, an increase of 4%, from 12.7 million visits. • Per capita spending was $62.88, a decrease of 1%, from $63.38. • Operating days totaled 1,615, a decrease of 44 days, from 1,659. Only down number is per capita spending that they contributed to expanded season pass benefits and increased cross-park visitation. I guess they gave away a lot of ice cream last month LOL. https://s204.q4cdn.com/155295784/files/doc_financials/2026/q2/Six-Flags-2Q-2026-Earnings-Release-August-6-2026.pdf

In Hindsight lol. I don't think anyone here (and most people connected to a CF park) thought the merger was a good idea before it happened. A lot of "I told you so" is more like it.

Fun Spot Atlanta ArieForce One Relocation to KI?
Has any roller coaster every increased attendance by 30%? I think Dennis Spiegel has mentioned Kingda Ka didn't show any appreciable increase.

Six Flags Great Adventure’s Record-Breaking BAKUNAWA Will Be Unlike Any Roller Coaster You’ve Ever Ridden
The advantage this one has to possibly opening on time is look how much has already been built compared to other coasters in the past announced around the same time that maybe only had some earthwork done. It is a Mack product.

It will also knock Orion out of the Top 10 tallest existing coasters

And "punish" those that buy the 20 or 30 meals - some could blow thru that in 2026.

Six Flags 2027 Season Passes & Memberships
Wonder how long before they change the Prestige drink benefit to be only drinks at VIP Lounge only and if you want drinks at other locations you need to buy a drink plan....and doubt this Prestige benefit will include ICEE or hot chocolate.... The question is does this convert a lot of people to call CP their home park? I know many that will do that if they visit CP more than 5 times with season long FL. And if CP attendance tanks next year as many people may skip their trips to CP, do they revert back during the season to season long FastLane being good at CP? They needed to do something to shorten the FL lines at CP, so time will tell if this strategy works.

The park is more than comfortably crowded today.....

Height of ride determines the miles. 15, 10, 5 miles, and right over the park.

Kings Island General Discussion 2026
The indoor rides will close if a thunderstorm is directly over the park. No sense in lightning being on top of the park and striking the building and killing the power or worse and needing to evacuate.

Meanwhile KI was busy enough to pull out the wheel of FastLane yesterday. So much for KK putting a dent in KI attendance.... Joking aside, glad you got to have a great day at KK.
