2027 Changes

Copy/Paste from C'Buzz....

Question to anyone who has renewed for 2027. If you have the All-Season dining plan for 2026, and purchase the 20 (or 30) meal plan for 2027, does the All-Season plan remain for 2026? Or is it replaced by the 20 or 30 meal plan?

Of course the All-Season plan should remain for 2026, but it would not be the first glitch in the system.

If you have a 2026 meal plan it remains active for the rest of this season regardless of which option you purchased for the 2027 season. If you did not have a meal plan in 2026 and purchased a 2027 plan it becomes active immediately and with the limit you select. For example if you bought the 30 meal plan and did not have a 2026 plan whatever meals you use this season count against the limit of 30.

In case you hadn't heard, there is an announcement from Six Flags coming tomorrow “that will turn heads across the amusement industry and reinforce Six Flags' position as the home of world-class thrills.” No clue as to which park(s) this is tied to.

A park seems to be getting Arieforce 1 it seems

The consensus is Kings Island but no one knows for sure, personally I think Michigan's adventure should get it.

I agree it seems like KI is the best fit/candidate. They've gone a long time between major coasters, have an area of the park, combined with maybe a bit of parking lot where it would fit quite well, they lack a true top tier thrill coaster even though they have many solid ones, they don't already have an RMC, etc.

What I don't get is why the big build up to announce you bought a used ride, you aren't telling us where it's going, it won't be ready for somewhere around 18 or 30 months, and you're going to keep the same stupid name it had? This isn't going to drive anyone to buy a pass or plan a trip for next year.

And that follows up a total turd sandwich of an anouncement yesterday about pay day loans for amusement park visits.

I get that you want to have your name in the news cycle and maybe all publicity is good publicity, but at this point, it just brings on extra clowning of Six Flags.

What if I told you that Michigan's Adventure is not a Six Flags park?

I would tell you it's the year 2023 and say "Of course it's not, why would it be?"

Wasn't sure where to put this, but it is definitely a change.

"The call is coming from inside...the country"

This time of year I'm typically making a variety of phone calls to Cedar Point setting up an annual group trip for myself and my (30ish) students. Call me weird, but I usually enjoy these calls, because after taking care of whatever, there is almost always a quick chat about the park, the season, whatever.

Last week I gave them a call, jumping through the system to get to "group sales", where I got a new "thank you for calling, your call is important, yadda yadda yadda", so I waited on hold. And waited. Then I just hung up and tried again because I figured a wire got crossed. Second try was more of the same but there was an option to leave a message, so I did. Just odd as believe it or not, I've never not spoken to a person at the park on the first try.

About 5 days passed and I honestly forgot I ever left a message because I had already figured out the answer to my question. I noticed a missed call from an area code that I did not recognize (817) so I ignored it. Then I noticed this person left a message so I listened to it.

"This message is for Kevin. This is Bill from Six Flags and per your request we are returning your call. Please call us back, yadda yadda yadda". I don't want to talk to Bill from Six Flags, I want to speak to Betty from Cedar Point. And why in the hell did it take 5 days?

Then I looked up the area code. It's Texas.

Something tells me "Bill" wouldn't be able to have a very interesting conversation about Troika, or Magnum's debut, or the disaster that Disaster Transport became, or....well....anything. Maybe we could talk about the Alamo's basement.
