Skyrider

Friday when a lot of high schoolers are at their football games.

I think during Winterfest it would be cool to project winter or holiday images in lights on the ceiling of Flight of Fear that riders could see while riding. The ride name change during Winterfest to Santa’s Flight of Fest—-like we are helping Santa deliver his gifts around the world. For example projections of snowflakes or wrapped packages, etc. This would add a nice holiday overlay to the ride.

Let’s hope they are taking their time designing a great new Phantom Theatre. I would also like to see it come in 2025!

I would like to see patrons not leave their trash on tables after they are done. I seem to notice this more and more.

Unless they can’t get enough staffing it seems like it would be worth having the Carnivale food booths open earlier than 5pm on the weekends. Did they use to be open earlier on the weekends in years past? Seems like more people might op to purchase the food tasting cards and make a better profit for the company.

I would switch the gate entrance to the opposite side after you pass security. It has seems like Frogger trying to cross over people exiting the park. Put the exit by guest relations and have the fence take you away from people entering the park. Unless I am missing something besides tradition this would workout better.

It does seem like Kings Island is behind in building the new rethemed area of the park and disappointing that the new Grill is not open as well as the new Tom and Chee. Lines were very long at all food places especially since some are not open yet.

Would love a healthy food option restaurant that carried low carb entrees. Doesn’t Cedar Pointe have an option like that already that they could bring to Kings Island too?

Buy the candle that smells like it instead. Sure it’s a lot cheaper to buy.

Thank you for the information about the midnight certification on the rides. I just think KI could offer more after 10:30pm that night when they stay open until 1:00am. More entertainment in the Festhaus or the bandstand with live bands performing up until midnight would be a great addition. Look at what Epcot does at their World Showcase on NYE. Would be cool to have live bands in different locations with drink options available. Not as big as Epcot but on a smaller scale and drowned out all the blowing horns. :)

I had a great time at Winterfest this year and glad they offer this NYE event. The only thing I think should be different that night is to have the rides open later than 10:30pm maybe until 11:00 or 11:30 especially since the park is open until 1:00am and offer one later showtime for the entertainment shows since it’s a special late night event.

I am having fun at Winterfest but a few things I miss are some of the food options that were on the meal plan. Festhaus had more unique holiday food options and the Brewhouse had the reasonable upcharge buffet with entertainment. Just a few things I miss this year.

I went last night too and enjoyed it very much. Glad to get the new Christmas Swing show in the Festhaus. My only improvement would be the sound. It is much too loud and would be better at a lower volume. I know they want a festive atmosphere but it shouldn’t sound like a hard rock concert!

I always thought holiday light projections inside Flight of Fear would be so cool.

Would be cool to have a Phantom Theatre themed maze where Urgent Scare is. It could be a holdover until we hopefully get the Phantom Theatre ride 2.0!
