Great Adventurer Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 Well, at least some of the glamping suites can go lower than a grand a night...

Maybe SF spun off a new separate company to operate the the glamping site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With opening day right around the corner, we probably won't have to wait much longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Adventurer Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 1 hour ago, The Master said: I don't like the sound of updated and newly designated parking areas. Can't say I'm overly thrilled about the idea of that either. Unless it's something as simple as additional EV charging, I don't think there's a need to further segment the parking lot. Even with the "Preferred" perk some of my passes have allegedly included, I've always opted to avoid the melee of cars funneling into that area and just walk the extra distance instead.

The Master Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 Sad to see the Parachute tower missing from the park map. The Flash's location will make a dynamic first impression entering the park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Adventurer Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 It's definitely sad to have a map without the iconic parachutes - I wonder if that tower has anything to do with Superman and Green Lantern not opening until Memorial Day weekend. Seeing Dream Street marked on the map again certainly is nice. Quite a relief to see the Skyway as well. They really chose an excellent location for The Flash.

Great Adventurer Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 (edited) The train and track theming both look really cool - the aesthetic will make quite a statement as guests enter the park. I wonder how those airtime elements will feel with OTSRs. Edited March 20 by Great Adventurer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
