PatchesC Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 So apparently there is an "All Parks" seasonal FL option now. Was this available for 2019 season, because I don't recall? Considering we plan 5 days at CP this year for first visit and at least 6 days at KI, this would almost save $ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chad_1138 Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 No there was not an all parks FL for 2019. And it is honestly a great price considering that it is about the same price as the CP all season FL for this year!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if they operated more than just seasonally. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 850 just for Cedar Point. This is a awesome deal for people going to multiple parks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said its is a great price considering that it is the same price as season Fast Lane for just Cedar Point. Yes, it is still expensive. I was simply stating that if you are planning lots of trips to multiple parks, it is a good deal compared to the price for only Cedar Point season Fast Lane plus this year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies, you're right. Considering the CP option from last year and what you get with this it's almost a no brainer to step it up. I'm just stewing because I'd love to get the FLs for myself, but can't NOT get them for the rest of the fam. =D 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Someone needs to lawyer up a rational to make the all park FL an FSA eligible expense. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimlaheyscar Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I'm still tempted to buy the all season FL+ off Canada's Wonderland page for a discount. Looks like roughly $125 USD savings. Should work, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimlaheyscar Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 It takes the season pass barcode on the purchase screen. Taxed heavily but still ~$125 savings. I haven't hit the final button yet. Still not sure I want to spend the money on the season FL but it's tempting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then have wasted over 2500k. KI only would have to make at least 14 days to even out the cost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melody Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 I renewed my passes for KI for the 2020 season. This season's FLP for renewing is showing up on my app, but not the Bring a friend on Sundays tickets. Anyone know where I might find these? It's loaded onto the pass. You go to the ticket window and they scan it and print it out for you.

I reused mine from 2018 and first day this year my little girl lost our passes on Vortex, she had em on a KI necklace.. wanted 40$ even though they was old cards from 18..

Didn’t work out very well and each lost theirs at least 3-4 times. I swear one of them lost a pass nearly every trip. CP did not even attempt to charge me even once, just quickly handed us new passes. Maybe its just my handsome mug that got us special treatment.

Yeah, even though they were 2018 passes, they said to bad since they done be used as 2019 passes. Even giving them the spill we spent 2500$ on 3 passes, they didn't cut no break I love KI, but that really was like WOW even emailed Kings Island and they said the same... it's just a couple cards that cost a couple cents to make, but..... owell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDMC01 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Yes, putting the pass in your phone/mobile device is definitely a thing! You can register the pass(es) on the Kings Island app. IIRC, it was mentioned to me over the phone when I lost my pass during Winterfest (saw a movie before going to the park and probably left the pass at the theater lol). Also, it automatically updates if/when you renew! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Speaking of saving your passes to the app or wallet, this weird thing happened back in June at KI. Anybody else experience this? I asked at GS and they were dumbfounded as well. Now I could see this happening at a SIX park but FUN? The app devs must have been having some fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seemed like every promo they did was like a never ending going out of business sale at a rug gallery with end dates being pushed back time and time again, and perks being added (like one visit for 2018 quickly changed into “awww what the hell, just cmon over now, for haunt.... and winter fest... as much as you like.... just PLEEEEEASE buy passes”. With the “announcement” this week I don’t think they will have to “sweeten the pot” as much. It's on the website. New 2020 passes give you unlimited visits in 2019 as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flightoffear1996 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I am on the auto renewal anyone know when our passes go active. We upgraded to Platinum and was hoping to sneak a weekend trip in before all the parks close for the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jensenracing77 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 So I print the Gold Pass ticket and take it to KI and they give me the passes there? Where do I go there to get them? I thought they would mail them to me but don't look like it. Will this same ticket get me free parking till I get the pass or do I have to pay parking the first time?

King Ding Dong Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Yes Season Pass Processing Just show the paper to a toll booth attendant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voicetek Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Speaking of Season Pass Processing, does anyone happen to know the hours? Their website is super vague and says, "Season Pass Processing will be available on days the park is open to the general public. Hours may vary from park hours." So basically it's no better than saying, "We should be open when the park is open, but we also might not be. You'll just have to come check." My wife and I went out yesterday evening to get our passes processed. Processing was already closed. It was 7 pm and the park was open for another 3 hours. Not sure how they can post that kind of explanation and expect people to be able to plan. I know more than likely they'll always be open earlier in the day, but it would be extremely helpful if they'd just post actual hours on their site. Does anyone know when the best time to go to processing would be? Just don't want to miss it again. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThemeParkDown Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I'm not 100% positive so someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it's from park opening to 4 hours before closing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 @Voicetek Dynamic staffing is how these parks run just about everything so the best thing to do is just call park and ask. The half dozen times or so I have called about something has only taken a few minutes. They aren’t the cable company. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t say the NEVER give this perk, only that last season they seemed to “sweeten the offer” by the week to try to move the needle for pass sales. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
