Gas Prices

I wonder how much of an effect gas prices will have on attendance in the coming weeks.

Going back to the first oil crisis of 1973-74, it will affect the ones that travel some distance who go multiple times a month, but the people that go once or twice a year it's not going to affect them. Seeing as the former tend to be season pass holders, there will be maybe a slight drop in the per cap,

It just means I'll be taking the electric car to CP instead of the gas guzzling diesel truck (which I've driven all of 3 miles since the war began.)

Gotta insert a quarter to ride the Cadillac cars.

Don't you know CP is a no-cash park? New for 2026: NFC Card readers on the Cadillac Cars :)

Maybe they will start using the cars as in park Ubers to generate more income.

I haven't had a gas car in over 10 years. I'd say I haven't gone to a gas station, but that's pretending I haven't rented a car when traveling. But I don't miss stopping to get gas.

Doesn’t matter that the gas prices are high. We’re making SO MUCH MONEY as a country because of it people don’t mind paying the extra $$$.

Higher gas prices could also benefit Cedar Point, being a regional park. There may be folks who were planning a long road trip this summer who will instead look to a more local destination to keep things in their budget.

We're driving from Michigan to Florida this summer, and while I over-budgeted for gas assuming prices would be higher this summer, we are quickly approaching that target, and will possibly exceed it unless the Iran situation eases. If things continue to escalate over there, we may have to rethink our plans.
