I want to say the fountain issues became very noticeable during the 2023 season. The pre-merge "lets pad the books" type of cuts. And they haven't recovered since. I don't agree with returning to the old pedestal fountains, those were dated and honestly with the budget cuts the pedestal fountains would likely have issues too.

And this is why I have stated before that a Phantom Theatre revival would not be a good fit in its current location.

Now KI should get one in the old Vortex spot. A Kenton’s Cove Keelboat Canal revival!

This is the second time I've seen Brad Ross's show. The first time being at Carowinds a couple years ago. The first time I watched it at Kings Island a couple of the tricks got botched. One being the hanging glass bottle with "champaign" being poured into it. You could clearly see the line with hook retract back into the bottle. Another being one of the boxes were one the assistants get into the box then vanishes. When she returned you could clearly see the top of her hair when she crawled back into the box. The show wasn't as entertaining from what I remembered from Carowinds. Both of my friends I was with who were also watching it for the first time feel asleep during the show.

I think it’s unrealistic to expect everything to be 100%, 100% of the time. Minor imperfections are always noticeable to those who frequently visit.

It’s not much different than being on a payment plan for the pass and add ons. Breaking up the overall cost of a pass with add ons makes season passes even more affordable than they already are. However, include all season Fast Lane for an additional $1200+ to the overall cost of the pass. Now payment plans become much more attractive. Especially at 0% APR. The confusion and complexity comes into play when they do last minute changes to pass perks and such. But, that’s been going on before this new membership.

Also the edge trim for the stairs are peeling away. Today was my first time riding Phantom Theatre. The ride aspect and the theming within the ride itself felt fresh and new but the queue itself, more or less, got the “landlord special”.

I haven't made my way to the point this season. (I plan on going June 2nd.) But I have heard they removed the brisket from Backbeat BBQ. That was my favorite restaurant and meal when visiting. The brisket was a well-known, fan favorite at CP. It's a shame they removed it due to budget cuts.

There are plenty of choices since about every restaurant serves them: Goblin burgers, Hot Diggity Dog, Jungle Jake’s, Safari Pizza, Santa’s Merry Marketplace, and Wildebeestro… I usually get tenders in the Marketplace because there is A/C. **Holiday World

I think it was an idea, that could have work if planned with the customer in mind. The people in charge of planning these events are more or less out of touch with guests. I reckon, because they don't experience the parks themselves as a guest. I doubt they experience other amusement parks as guest either. I think Kings Island could pull off a similar event such as "Morning Flush". It could be something like this: -Have the event on an early closure day like 7pm. A non-passholder guest who has purchased an event ticket will be granted access to the park at 4pm. (With hopes they purchase a meal before the event starts.) Attendees of the event will be provided a souvenir lanyard which will grant them access to the rides and buffet for ERT. -ERT begins at 7pm onwards. -At 930pm open up Grain and Grill and provide a desert buffet that will last 1 hour. Drinks included for all of ERT. -At 10pm have a Special drone and firework show that is exclusive to the event. -The ERT event ends at 11pm. If they’re feeling generous, midnight.
