CedarFairFan787 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Hey, I know this might make me sound like less like an enthusiast, but does anyone know when the KI 2020 Gold Pass goes on sale? And if anyone knows, when do they start doing the sale for the 2020 Gold Pass that gets you unlimited visits in 2020, as well as the remainder of 2019?

Magenta Lizard Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 I don’t think it is likely they will do the rest-of-2019 promotion this year, probably just one visit in 2019 for new 2020 passes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldhudsonjr Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Are you still able to do the payment plan for passes you buy early for 2020? I have to buy four and was planning on getting Platinum passes this year as well as some other upgrades, so definitely makes it a bit easier.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I have PP and haven't received anything... We unfortunately haven't used our PP to it's full potential due to a few different issues, so we will be switching to Gold next year as we end up visiting KI more than CP... As soon as anyone sees Gold on sale for next year, please post... And when can Coasterstock tickets be purchased, my son was disappointed after he saw what it was and wants to go next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 We got the email and changed from gold to platinum with the platinum dining, drink pass and fun pics. We may add on the season long Fast Lane. Cedar Fair got a lot of our nickels for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakePlissken Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I haven't got an email to renew my Platinum pass but since I'm going to Cedar Point for Haunt Sept 13 I may renew through that park depending on the 2019 extras. I'm hoping for a free fastlane. I bought season dining, drink and fastlane plus this season and will do the same for 2020. The new coaster will be my main reason for season fastlane next year. Considering lockers for 2020 but I wish it was good chainwide. I used my pass at Kings Island mostly. Cedar Point twice and going 2 more times for Haunt. Twice at Carowinds. Next year I'm going to Kings Dominion with it and if I can fit it in Canada's Wonderland. I will also buy my second Coasterstock ticket. Will likely skip Coastermania and do Hollywood nights for my first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumpfcm Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 That is the best news ever! We have not had passes for 3 years. I wish I could go down Thursday, but I will have to settle for purchasing them online. Labor Day weekend here we come!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk I did not even give this any thought until I saw the same question being asked on Kings Island's own twitter page. Then I went to their website where it just says Gold pass and does not mention anything about a Platinum pass. Last year the perks applied to either pass. I may not be renewing my Platinum this weekend after all. I may wait to see what Cedar Point offers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all it’s worth, Canada’s Wonderland is offering the same promotion, and they said that the Platinum Pass will be included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimlaheyscar Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Any chance the 2020 platinum will open up all CF parks for 2019 (and not just the park you bought it at)? I can dream, right? Looks like KD, CW, Carowinds, and KI all have the promo ready to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe this policy has changed. 2019 season pass sales were very slow.... at the end of a soft 2018 season. 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimlaheyscar Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Canada's Wonderland looks like a good deal for platinum with season FL+. Looks like folks didn't have to activate at the park they purchased from last year. $849 CDN saves you some over the rumored $849USD prices we saw a week or two ago.

CoastersRZ Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I too am hoping that they extend the Platinum benefit for 2019 if you purchase a 2020 Platinum Pass. My wife and I are planning to hit up Carowinds the first weekend of October, and we currently only have Gold Passes to KI. Would also enable us to maybe try and visit Michigan`s Adventure next spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 If we upgrade to the food pass for 2020 will it start to work in 2019? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VortexJD Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Food/Drink passes for 2019 season did not work in 2018 when we bought ours platinum passes. I would expect it to work the same this year. You'll get free admission, but will be on your own for food/drink this year. I do hope I'm wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stashua123 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Dining and Drink Plans purchased for 2020 do not work until then, and will not work for 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I feel the pass system is quirky. We only have one drink pass this year and I accidentally scanned the wrong pass and it worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only have one drink pass this year and I accidentally scanned the wrong pass and it worked. We bought the drink passes 2 years ago for our platinums. Went to CP before going to KI (think it was the first year they did the disposable cups on the passes). It was early enough in the season that the workers had no idea what they were doing. By the end of our weeklong CP visit, one of our passes had something like 5 drink passes activated on it. We could go get 5 drinks at a time with the one pass. Was an interesting dilemma.

WhatTheBlazes 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? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
