If Kings Island is $500! Who knows what Cedar Point's Fast Lane Plus is gonna be.

Basing it on what I see up there for prices, I say $750 ($749.99) and my wife says $1000.  Time will tell, I guess

Actually I don't think $500 for Kings Island Season Long Fast Lane+ is that bad. They cannot make it too cheap, otherwise too many people will buy it, which will jam up the regular lines and create waits for even Fast Lane, which leads to angry customers and that means in the long run Cedar Fair loses money. Not to mention I have seen Fast Lane+ go for $80+ for even a single day, and someone who has a season pass and this will probably use it a lot on those super-busy weekends like the 4th of July and Halloween Haunt.

Also a big reason why Kings Island's is more expensive than Carowinds or Kings Dominion's would be Kings Island gets bigger crowds- Kings Island draws 3 to 3.5 million guests in every year, and for comparison Kings Dominion is usually in the 1.5 to 2 million range if I recall correctly. I don't remember Carowinds specifically but I think they get just a bit more than KD. Cedar Point's Fast Lane Plus+ Season Pass is also going to be crazy expensive, possibly even more than the Kings Island one. Canada's Wonderland, another huge drawing Cedar Fair park, also charges $500 for this (though since that's Canadian it's more like $350 US) and Knott's Berry Farm in California will also probably be very expensive.

This will not likely be a popular position but I think $500 for all season is WAY to cheap.  $1000 minimum IMO.

For KI or CP?

 

I agree with @King Ding Dong, for Kings Island. $500 is too cheap, and hopefully the number sold is fairly limited to compensate. I've heard 500 available but don't know how true it is. 

All season Fast Lane is an awful idea to me, but it can be done correctly if you don't sell too many, I'm thinking about 500 or so.

At least $2k for CP.  There are already a ton of Gold VIP Tours full of teens up there.  

How many people are going to ride the same rides over and over and over and over and over in one day...and then do that on repeat all season long?  I have to believe the number is low.  Extremely low.  In my experience FL is only worth it on really---and I mean really---busy days anyhow.  At weekend prices, you could buy FL on six different days and still not reach $500.  Only the most dedicated of guests is going to cause a change in wait-times.  At least that's my thought...since we don't really have any good data to look at right now.

Nope.  Way to little.

Hey everyone,  took advantage of the Holiday bundle with tix and parking for $50.00 but cannot seem to find the price of a Fast Lane (+) for single day use. Any idea when they will post the single day FL prices?

Also noticed the 2018 schedule is not posted so maybe thats what they are waiting for.

Part of the reason the 2018 season schedule hasn't been release is that our 2017 season is not over.

If you have the Season fastlane and are renewing your pass for 2019 you can give your free Sunday fastlane for renewing to a friend
