Enchanted Parks Releases New Websites

[Losantiville Mining Co.]

Six Flags did not hesitate to take the parks they just sold off of their website. Now they're all under "parks [dot] enchantedparks [dot] com" addresses! The most notable name changes are coming from Six Flags St. Louis (now Mid-America by Enchanted Parks) and Schlitterbahn Galveston (now Galveston Island Waterpark). Each website shows a "Now Under New Management" badge as well in case you didn't know about the sale. Schlitterbahn Galveston has a special 20th anniversary logo on their website, Valleyfair has their 50th anniversary logo, and Michigan's Adventure has a special 70th anniversary logo. Putting the old Six Flags-based URLs in the address bar directs you to a landing page similar to the Six Flags America website before it was deactivated. There is a link to the each park's new website and a link to other Six Flags park websites.

The new chain has also released new pass options, including the Enchanted Hero Pass and the Enchanted Legend Pass. Both passes grant guests similar perks, with the main difference being the discount percentage, parking tier, and number of Fast Lane passes per season and type of Bring-A-Friend ticket deals. The new Legend pass also includes one free Combo Meal (though what that means is not specified) per season. From what I've seen there are no meal plans, drink plans, all-season Fast Lane (or other name of Priority Pass), or all-season photo pass. There is a parking page and cabana rental page though. Some parks also list "admission to Halloween Event" as a perk. I just hope they don't choose a name as bad as "Mid-America by Enchanted Parks" such as "Scary Halloween by Enchanted Parks".

Each website lists the same passes and pass prices. I found it interesting that the Legend Pass is only $25 more than the Hero Pass, but when the only real multi-visit difference is the parking tier and the combo meal it isn't surprising. Personally, I think the price difference should be closer to $50. That way the parking benefit would be a little more exclusive. Limiting the Fast Lane to only 1-2 per season seems both good and bad. Good for the people who only visit twice a year, bad for the people who are used to their Prestige Pass and getting one Single-Use Fast Lane per visit.

 

I haven't been able to find anything about if the Six Flags pass add-ons will work at these parks, but it's somewhat clear to me that the websites aren't finished yet. From what I remember hearing/reading, the issue is/was with getting the Six Flags and Enchanted Parks systems to work together. I'd love if my dining plan got me a free combo meal. How would that work? I don't know, maybe Guest Services could print out a QR code ticket for the one-time meal or something. 

What do you think about these new Enchanted Parks websites and passes?

I actually liked the websites. Very easy to navigate and find what you are looking for

They seem to have done a really good job for what they accomplished in such a short time frame. The biggest issues I've found are the lack of clarification on if Six Flags add-ons that guests paid for will be honored and the fact that some items still advertise Six Flags passes, such as on the maps and some promotional materials. I'm really interested to see what the new logos for these parks will look like.
