BeastieFanatic Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Kings Island is such a beautiful park, and this only adds to it, hopefully one day Vortex spot will be filled and junk lot coaster will be gone and the park will be PERFECT 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FUN&ONLY! Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 It really does looks amazing! One thing I noticed, though, is it looks like they removed that banner from Flight of Fear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FUN&ONLY! Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 I am probably looking at this too closely, but why is there not a second one of these themed posts? It looks like one is meant to be there.

I want to watch the entire video so bad! Also, I wonder if this video will be playing on the rest of the TV’s in the queue like or if those will be FunTV’s.

shadowscare Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 A couple things that stick out to me... 1. I'm very surprised every row of the queue is available. I thought they would only allow every other row for social distancing purposes. You may be 6 feet away from the person in front of you, but only a couple feet from the person on the rail next to you. 2. Hard to tell from the video but it looks like they're allowing riders in each row. I'm also surprised by this; is each row 6 feet apart? I've read that's the case with wing coasters.
