I think a lot are starting to feel that way. I think if folks don't like the downgrading experience, one needs to make a mention about it to Guest Services. Only way bottled water comes back is if there are enough complaints. And they should change the marketing picture from bottled water to the tiny Kinzel cup for the warm infused water Maybe we will see a Don't Waste Your Money segment on Channel 9 LOL

So when the Prestige pass started selling, folks were getting into the VIP and getting to enjoy a variety of soft drinks (Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Diet Sprite), Powerade and bottled water that were in the "fridge" as well as a large cooler on wheels full of ice and bottles and cans in there getting ice cold, along with a variety of Frito Lay brand bagged snacks. Fast forward to last weekend/today and Sprite, Diet Sprite and bottled water are gone, along with the larger cooler on wheels full of ice. Now you get warm infused water provided in cups that have already shrunk in size from a decent size cup to the "Kinzel" cup lol and warm Coke, Diet Coke and Powerade as the "fridge" can't keep up, along with Boulder Canyon chips that replaced the Frito Lay offerings. I agree with you that these folks will see a lot of "subject to change" happenings. Your satire 2024 above may not be far off LOL.

And the snacks and drink offerings are being reduced weekly in type and variety... They need to add some self serve kiosks for the front of the line pass because nobody wants to stand in guest services line to get front of the line pass on busy days.

Exactly! What exactly is the point of spending $170 more for a Prestige pass if you can't get access to the VIP lounge or preferred parking? That and the front of the line pass are the primary drivers why someone would purchase this pass. I don't think anyone bought it solely for the 15% discount on food and merch LOL.

I guess the main question or assumption made relates to the “+Prestige + Passholder benefits may vary by park. Contact the park you are planning to visit for any questions regarding applicable benefits.” Why say that if the only benefit is what was already clearly defined 15% off merch and food at other Cedar Fair parks. I thought the original FAQ said you got access to the CP Millennium Lounge (although I didn't screen shot that so maybe someone else did or someone can find it somewhere). Now the FAQ is clear, yet they still keep the asterisk to check the park you are going to for the benefits you may receive????? What is the difference between Prestige and Prestige+? Prestige receives exclusive benefits at the home park for which the pass is eligible. Prestige+, receives exclusive benefits at the home park the pass was purchased through, plus Unlimited Visits to ALL Cedar Fair Parks with a 15 % Food and Merchandise Discount at Other Cedar Fair Parks. All other Prestige benefits are non-transferable to other Cedar Fair parks. But the official terms and conditions still reference to contact a park you are visiting to determine what Prestige Plus benefits you are entitled to. Again, why say that if the only transferable benefit is the 15% discount... Cedar Fair Prestige Plus Pass benefits may vary by the park (i.e. admissions, parking, discounts, etc.). Prestige Plus Pass holder must have a current year, valid Prestige Plus Pass to receive admission and other benefits. If you are traveling to a Cedar Fair park (other than the one you purchased your pass), please contact that park you will be visiting before arrival to ensure you are aware of Prestige Plus Pass benefits and to ask any questions on program details. Clearly there is still a lot of confusion and misunderstanding and inconsistent wording.

The ever changing terms of conditions....the original terms said it was part of it and many people have used it with a KI Prestige pass....first front of the line and lounge was part of Prestige Plus, then they took away the front of the line, and now apparently lounges at the parks that have it. Now it appears the only thing plus gets you at another park is the extra discount of food and merch... Looking more and more like this should have simply been a park specific season pass add-on as that would have eliminated all the confusing and changing terms...

I thought this was announced last year, but that was a different promotion LOL

The biggest problem is they were playing on makeshift stages and as such never got a crowd, especially River City stuck by Congo Falls. Usually they were playing for nobody and usually not more than 10 people around the stage.

Re-read what you quoted....hint he did not say coaster....

^we are waiting for the concept drawings of the skyline chili coaster....

Episode 10 is on the airwaves.

One shouldn't go to a scary event if they don't want to be scared LOL...plus it ruins it for those around them that want to be scared.

Or enter a maze with a stroller! It is always more than one family complaining at guest services that there single digit aged kid was too scared.

There is nothing in this that isn't already in place or was in place for the past several years... I have heard a few ride ops call out guests for profanity and said they would call security if they didn't stop. https://www.visitkingsisland.com/code-of-conduct

3 adults and 6 minors were arrested https://www.yahoo.com/news/police-arrest-several-panic-kentucky-052416461.html

interpret his choice of words....

I would say that an almost 100 year old historic organ, which the world famous auction house Sotheby's claims that no more than 10 are known to exist today of the Wurlitzer Style 157 Band Organ, breaks and is fixed within 4 days is well within an acceptable time period to fix such a rare item and in fact shows the priority the park is placing in this organ! Great to hear it again!

It is simply your opinion is it is unjust.... case law and precedence says otherwise... can the laws change at some point - yes absolutely. But until then, it is a generally accepted legal policy a company can implement. They are a private business and can implement whatever policy they want as long as it is legal. As an example, smoking is allowed outdoors. The parks are outside (except obviously for their indoor parts) and legally they can say no smoking or vaping within the park and that is their legal right and within their right to kick a person out for violating their legal policy. You as a consumer can decide if you disagree with a particular policy and then decide whether or not to patronize the business. If the company sees a decline as a result of said policy, then they will change said policy. Companies are in business to make money. Any legal policy they implement takes into consideration the pros and cons of said policy. If they believe that the overall benefit outweighs the negative, then they will do so. With the current industry trends leaning towards family-friendly parks, that is where the money is, not unruly teens that are causing trouble and aren't spending money in the park. If those same guests turn the magical age of 18 and decide as you say "Screw you, Charlie Brown", well that is probably still an overall benefit for the park because like you said, the age of 18 is just a number, so they would probably continue their poor behavior once turning legal. They want the well-behaved and properly parented children visiting the park and those positive experiences will encourage these said children to visit the park when they are over 18. The unruly teens causing trouble and making a family decide that for their families safety, they will skip the park is not what the park wants. And let's face it, since the parks are now cashless, it is easy for a park to determine if the guests they kicked out spent any money in the park....

The thing is the average person has no idea who the park's spokesperson is (obviously a fan site and enthusiasts know LOL), so if it is going to be titled in the article Kings Island Camp Cedar, shouldn't and wouldn't KI want to control that narrative, especially if they are getting paid to provide that service?

All of Mystic's projections in the shed are working today.

Cake by the Ocean (cross-threading and some may get the reference lol)

^including within the past 24 hours!

Sorry for the double post, but this should come as no surprise: https://abc7.com/knotts-berry-farm-chaperone-policy-halloween-fright-fest/12131495/?fbclid=IwAR0CRZeefUwpsD1IkfjSoriwPz-uXxsWk6-4RahAzx0N8UqziM2Ov_wcUT0

But more importantly, did his kids find out LOL.

It is what many will say the plan should be, but the language with each revision seems to get more restrictive and more park specific benefits opposed to benefits available at other parks. Let's hope they iron this out and not backpedal on benefits that @BoddaH1994 and others have already received at other parks.
