We know chances are about zero it could happen, but it would be great if the Parachute Tower could be reused for an observation tower. -
Waterpark attractions go together in weeks, not months. Other parks easily opened their new waterslides and attractions without issue.
-
It's taking WAY too long to build new attractions. The picture I chose was Hurricane Harbors new for 2023 attraction at the end of the season. There's no excuse for not getting things open when it's a simple, off the shelf attraction...
-
Hurricane Harbor was state of the art and a world class waterpark when it opened, with amazing theming. Over time it has lost most of that and become more generic. It's time to retore the park to its former glory.
-
With only two water rides left in the park, they are both important. Roaring Rapids needs a thorough refurbishment and some upgrades.
-
Nitro is a great coaster, but it's well past time for it to get painted and make it look and run like new again. The station never looked great, so a makeover for it would also be a welcome addition.
-
This massive building should have SOMETHING in it again. It would be great to have another indoor ride for those days when the weather isn't great.
-
I just think if it's a cost saving measure, go back to selling poster maps. Years ago they didn't give out maps so they had information kiosks with maps throughout the park or you could buy a poster map for $1. They sold tons of maps to people, so they paid for themselves.
-
Maybe, finally the time has come for the park to add its own hotel!
-
Probably not- it was problematic.
-
It used to be just about every park printed souvenir poster maps-- they made money selling them, so it seems like a no brainer to bring them back.
-
Six Flags passes have been a huge, confusing mess for years now. Take the opportunity of the merger to really streamline the passes while they integrate their pass programs. I know I really want to get the combined pass for next season if possible, and the sooner they can give us details on the new passes the better!
-
It will be interesting to see if under the Six Flags name the Cedar Fair parks end up changing their names to add the Six Flags name, or if it will be like Cedar Fair currently where the Cedar Fair Park name in kind of hidden. I guess they'll have a branding consultant come up with a plan.
-
This is a great perk for passholders-- and just makes sense to adopt across the combined company.
-
Yes, theoretically without the cable launch they can finally reopen the original queue.
-
This is an easy one, especially since my understanding is Coke provides the cups to the parks for free.
-
Even with supply chain issues it shouldn't have taken 4 years!
-
Hooray! Another wish come true!!!
-
Especially now with the merger, this makes a LOT of sense for them to do the same at Great Adventure. The maintenance costs for Kingda Ka are astronomical, and spending money on the changes would be cost effective and make it a better, more reliable ride.
-
The idea that it has taken so long to move the Barnstormer ride is absolutely ridiculous. Reopen this ride, rehab the others and give the area some love.

SeaWorld Orlando Adding Penguin Trek Toboggan Coaster for 2024

They're making great progress! -
It's iconic-- it's THE ride that has always been the star of the park. It's still an outstanding example of a log flume ride.
-
I feel like I wouldn't even mind them changing hours, but they seem to communicate it so poorly despite the fact that social media should make it easy to update.
-
Much of the theming for Golden Kingdom was done by the same designers that did a lot of work for Islands of Adventure and the Busch/SeaWorld parks in their prime. It really showed... I know several people who were Great Adventure regulars who visited Busch Gardens Tampa and their reaction was "This is exactly what Great Adventure should be with the animals and rides all together".
-
The pavement takes a beating from the winter weather and vehicle traffic through the park and just really needs better maintenance.
