What about the Chessington Vampire?

The All-Season Free Refill Souvenir cup is chain-wide. All of them will be offering it next year, and it works at every park regardless of where you bought it at.

Current wait: Until Friday at 5.

CGA is getting a floorless Vortex next year.

What seems like a pretty complete list of dining plan meals is here: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/things-to-do/dining-plans Click "What Meals Are Available When Using A Dining Plan?" I guess I didn't realize the pizza place on International Street was not a LaRosa's anymore.

They are doing the payment plan right now.

I know this has to have been asked before, but I'll be the first this year. What's the process if you want to renew a Gold Pass into a Platinum Pass?

This is very good news.

A coaster should NEVER EVER run with people on it while in manual mode. NEVER. NEVER EVER. If it has to be run in manual mode, SOMETHING IS WRONG.

I'm going to try to make it to the final day this year. Just hope the weather isn't too bad. Still undecided on Platinum or Gold. I've only been Gold. But if we make it to just a few extra parks this next year, Platinum would be worth it.

I forgot sunscreen my first trip to Kings Island. That is not something you do again.

That's how I justify the Gold pass. If I go more than twice, it paid for itself.

It's certainly what I would call the most surprising part of Banshee. You don't really understand how slow it's going until you feel it.

Renewal benefits:

They can't hide it even if they wanted to.

I saw two people on Wednesday with Fast Lane Plus. They were walking into The Beast line when it was dispatching mostly empty trains. It probably would have been faster for them to just walk into the normal line. I felt bad for them, because it was a complete waste on that day. With that said, a friendly reminder: Don't buy Fast Lane until you're in the park and have seen the lines. (Unless it's free with your Gold Pass renewal).

According to the CP Food Blog: http://cpfoodblog.com/cedar-fair-all-season-souvenir-bottle-now-available/ Wildwater Kingdom?

Hey! I like my video games almost as much as I like my roller coasters! (I actually like coasters a lot more.) (This wasn't always the case.)

It's a Mondial Revolution.

Maybe Mondial gave it away as an apology for the WindSeekers.

This thread is a good reminder that I need to ride the Phoenix. If nothing else, Dinn proved to be a good rebuilder. The non-Beast new projects? Hit or miss. And probably more miss than hit. At least after the first few years of operation.

Oh, and it appears to be a Gerstlauer Sky Roller. Here's a video of one:

Reminds me of the old Flight Commander that used to be at KI. Say, what's in the old Flight Commander spot at KI?
