it didn't appear that an "All Park" option exists for the drink plan.

There have never been separate all park, and home park only drink plans.  They have just always been chain wide and it’s unlikely anything is changing.

I've been scouring the national sites of Cedar Fair and Six Flags since the merger. Today, the LCF parks were added to the park selection section of the Six Flags national site.

Just like that, www.cedarfair.com is down.

Let us have a moment of silence 

[KI Fan75]

www.cedarfair.com now redirects to the six flags website if it works at all. 

[Taylor.B03]

Well now the site seems to be functioning again, so I'm not sure what they were doing. Maybe some testing.

[Taylor.B03]

Update, it's now redirecting to sixflags.com

Imagine showing this to someone from a year ago with parks like Kings Island and Cedar Point on the Six Flags website.

Looks like pass options for 2025 are up for legacy SF parks and its...gold pass, prestige pass, and all park passport, matching Cedar Fairs options. As well as all season flash pass and a "two meal" dining plan.

Congratulations to whoever had the idea to name the passes the same thing when the benefits don't work at the "other company's" parks and aren't really a 1:1 match either. Imagine being in Guest Services having to explain these things to upset guests with a straight face.

Spotify's DJ has been playing "We like to party" by the Venga Boys. I really think they should use this song over the next few years to unify the company... except for the market the former Six Flags Worlds of Adventure.

How's this for a concept for a commercial for next year, featuring two of the most recognizable people from KI:

 

**[Scene opens with the iconic "We Like to Party" by Vengaboys playing in the background. Quick cuts of the park’s entrance and excited families walking in.]**

**Don Helbig (excitedly):** Welcome to Kings Island, now part of the Six Flags family!

**[Quick shot of Diamondback roaring down a hill. The sound of the train horn blasts through.]**

**Ryan Suhr (grinning):** We’ve got the thrills you know and love, like The Beast, still the king of coasters!

**[Cut to The Beast zooming through the woods, then to guests enjoying Blue Ice Cream.]**

**Don Helbig (voiceover):** And it’s not just the rides! Indulge in our famous Blue Ice Cream…

**[Quick cut to guests picking up fudge from The Sweet Spot, their smiles growing.]**

**Ryan Suhr (voiceover):** …or grab some fudge from The Sweet Spot. It’s a must-try!

**[The Banshee’s wail echoes as the screen flashes to Banshee diving through its loops.]**

**Don Helbig (voiceover):** Feel the rush on Banshee!

**[Cut to guests relaxing at one of the park’s bars, toasting with vibrant cocktails.]**

**Ryan Suhr (cheerfully):** And for the adults, we’ve got plenty of places to unwind with a drink in hand.

**[Montage of guests laughing, riding coasters, and enjoying the park with "We Like to Party" crescendoing in the background.]**

**Don Helbig (excitedly):** Come for the thrills, stay for the fun—Kings Island, now better than ever with Six Flags!

**[End with the Kings Island logo, followed by the Six Flags logo, as the song hits its peak.]**
