Quick question about Platinum Fast Lane

[chibul]

Hello,

I just want to make sure this is still a thing. I have a Platinum Pass that I've had for years, home park of KI. I can add a Platnium Fast Lane to it through Canada's Wonderland's website, still use it at all parks, and save a significant amount due to the exchange rate - correct?

The savings is not as significant as you might think, Canadas Wonderland charges 13% tax.  Kings Island would not charge tax on the purchase.  You still save some money but its like 10-15% depending on current exchange rate.

And some credit cards will charge a fee for international purchases.

The difference ended up being a $244 savings. I'll take it!

Yeah you save way more money buying at CWonderland. My buddy has 6 Plat passes does it every year for like the past 4 years.
