Purplehaze Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 As of Monday it was annouced via inter-memo that season pass processing will be open this weekend and through out next week early. So we all dont have to wait until opening day!
CoastersRZ Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 That is good news! This will help make thing move more smoothly on opening weekend. I know they had some issues with switching out the temporary passes down at Carowinds on opening weekend.
pkiboy Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Great so i dont have to get to the park so early to process my pass. Just one question, do the maxx passes act like a gold pass it would be silly to pay all that money and not get the perks.
CoastersRZ Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Yes, I believe that Maxx passes that were purchased and processed at Kings Island will get the Gold Pass Perks at Kings Island. The perks are ONLY valid for Maxx passes that were bought at Kings Island. Likewise, the KI Maxx pass will not get perks at other Cedar Fair parks.

Thanks so much Robbie I was wondering if that was true or not. Good news is I dont have to wait in that long line to get my pass this year.
CoastersRZ Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Your welcome! Now, if only we would get an actual listing of the specifics of the Gold Pass perks. (Like what early ride times they will have this season, all they`ve said so far is that they will have early ride times, but haven`t gone into specifics).
pkiboy Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 I bet they will give us the info when we process our pass. I will call the park later on today and see what time the processing hours are and Ill post the info.
Texas Giant Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Quick newbie question: When is the last date that Gold Pass perks are applied to a reg. or Maxx Pass purchase? I'm hoping to make it to the park by early-mid May and just want to make sure I'll be able to get the Gold upgrade for free. Thanks!
flightoffear1996 Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 This is great news. What time do they open this Saturday?
CoastersRZ Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 May 27th is the last day to purchase a season pass to get the gold pass perks.
Texas Giant Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 May 27th is the last day to purchase a season pass to get the gold pass perks. Thanks for the help!
pkiboy Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Ok i just called the park there is early season pass processing this weekand 10am to 6 pm Sat and Sun and she said mon thru Fri but I asked the hours but she hung up. So for any of you who dont want to wait in line on the 21st get your pass processed this weekand so you dont have to wait in that long line when the park opens.
PKIVortex Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 I wish I could do that. Unfortunately I won't be able too. But I plan on getting to park early on the 21st, so hopefully I should be fine, besides I don't actually have to process, just get my temporary pass traded for a Gold Pass.
Purplehaze Posted April 11, 2007 Author Posted April 11, 2007 May 27th is the last day to purchase a season pass to get the gold pass perks. Thanks for the help! Isnt that what I already posted?
flightoffear1996 Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 I will be there. I wonder if they will have the gate up so you can walk around the park and take a look at Firehawk.
Texas Giant Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Isnt that what I already posted? I wasn't sure on the exact date...sorry if you posted that previously and I missed it.
CoastersRZ Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Yeah, I don`t see where he posted the 27th date in this thread either. No worries though.
The Interpreter Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 That is good news! This will help make thing move more smoothly on opening weekend. I know they had some issues with switching out the temporary passes down at Carowinds on opening weekend. That's an understatement. At least they seem to be learning from their mistakes!
CoastersNSich Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 What's also great about this is that I can also add my parking pass to the card, and have it all done before opening day, so I don't have to fork over an extra $10.
Guest faceoff Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 I will be driving to Kings Island on friday april 20th. I should arrive around 3pm. After hotel check in,i will drive over to park and process my pass. From the hotel,i will be staying at- i am only about 1/4 mile from Kings Island.
Cody Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Can you still buy your gold passes online and go to the park and trade them in for gold?
Dane Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Any Season Pass you buy online is automatically upgraded to gold for free.
Purplehaze Posted April 12, 2007 Author Posted April 12, 2007 Yes all are gold until the end of May then the prices go up and I think the gold goes away.
BoddaH1994 Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 I posted the press release on the front page, please refer any more question or comments to the official thread: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=9382
