Yourmajesty Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Hey i think this is a proper place to ask without creating a thread. How much are Fast Lane and Fast Lane plus passes? Not saying i will need them but wondering the prices on those things Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 ^welcome to KIC! I think there is a discount if you buy multiple (and possibly certain dates are more expensive or cheaper?) but online price for today is $63 for regular and $78 for plus.

DMann1979 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Banshee is pretty much a walk on right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soccer6 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I am pretty sure that Fast Lane is more expensive on weekends than on weekdays as well, which makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is. Usually 5 to 15 bucks more on weekends Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMann1979 Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Beast was about 15 minutes for the front seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malem Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Most wait times in the dry park were minimal today, with the exception of 30-45 minute waits on MT. Soak City got very busy by mid-afternoon. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wait times were only working on probably 5 rides all day for me on Friday, and the app drained my battery like crazy. Even after I had closed it and killed the app I had the notification in the corner of my phone saying that it was searching for activities and could not clear it. I then had to go into app settings and force stop it. Never had a battery drain issue with the app before. I'm with you. I had the same issue where I had to force stop the app to make the "searching" notification go away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonofBaconator Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 MT is running 2 trains currently. Everything else is a near walk on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whengodsaysgo Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Waited 30 min for MT just now. Third time, And I've had all three endings. Was about four trains away and they called for single riders. #solostatusSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YOULLBEBACK Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 It seemed last week was pretty busy, even during usually slower days (Monday-Tuesday). Sounds like that hasn't been the same this week? Thinking of skipping work and going tomorrow but hoping it's not too packed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timfsu2k Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 On an unrelated note, I finally found a vintage Paramount's Kings Island shirt so if you are waiting in line and notice a guy wearing a very colorful PKI shirt, say hi! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldschool75 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Seems to me thinning out a bit. Banshee was about a 5 minute wait. Vortex a walk on.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRickster Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 The park is so weird now. I remember if you went on a Monday or Tuesday early summer The Beast line would be at the bottom of the ramp up to the station, now 1 full queue house. It still moves a lot quicker than it looks, but it's just odd. I'd think with newer rides added it would thin out. Maybe the fact that they have a separator for Fast Lane holding the line and only loading one train at a time into the gates makes it back up and look a lot longer. I also hate that certain ridesk are assigning rows on rides that don't need it. I can understand doing this for rides that have longer lines. But Adventure Express had maybe a 5 minute wait. It was barely in the tunnel out of the station and they were not letting you pick what row you wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malem Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Wait times are usually hard to predict, but I agree that this season has been odd. For many guests, it wouldn't have been quite warm enough for Soak City today, which might have had an effect on dry park crowds. Or perhaps too many guests are starting to recognize "typical" crowd patterns. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 In line for Mystic Timbers right now with stashua123. Really long wait. I think part of the line might be the regular line still being run out, with the Gold and Platinum Pass holders still waiting behind them.

silver2005 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Just for reference, if we could add more wait times than Mystic Timbers' as that is the new ride, that'd be kind of better. Just stating what the new ride's wait time is often hardly evidence of a busy day, especially one not up to par from a capacity stand point as the line chewers at KI (Vortex, DB, Bandshee, Beast, etc). I expect MT to have long waits regardless of day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect MT to have long waits regardless of day. I always judge it from The Beast since that's where I spent two of my 5.5 years working there. I feel like we rarely opened a queue except for weekends or holidays. But I mean, 3 trains of people are probably now in the regular queue instead of in the loading gates with the separators holding the queue and only loading in a train at a time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pagoda Gift Shop Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I dropped by this evening and the park was busier on a Tuesday evening in June than I can ever remember it being. It felt more like late July. At 8:30ish the wait times I observed were: Delirium: 20-25 minutes Adventure Express: 10 minutes Racer: Station wait Diamondback: 30 minutes Backlot Stunt Coaster: 20 minutes Eiffel Tower: 10 minutes At 9:00 PM, I got in line for Mystic Timbers. The wait ended up being 45 minutes. It really hurt that they were only running 2 trains. The orange train was in the pre-shed. I bailed before the gold/platinum pass ride time since I knew the wait would be at least 30 minutes. The majority of the queues were open and in use.

Try close to an hour. @stashua123 and I got in line at 10:15 and didn't board until after 11:00. Pretty sure nobody got more than one ride during the hour of ERT, and that the Gold and Platinum Pass holders were just added to the end of the regular queue that was left over when the park closed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldschool75 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I think it's a huge increase of season pass sales that has oversaturated the overall attendance at the park. In turn, I think this is stretching available resources thin. I'd be happy to pay more for a pass if it meant a more pleasurable time at the park(reasonable wait times for food, and being open). I think we will see season pass and meal plan prices rise dramatically next year. The day of the $99 gold pass will turn into $129 gold pass then raise to a new normal price of $159 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
