  1. We might be heading down to Fiesta in mid May. Does anyone have any info if they plan to close down Wonder Woman to do the train and operational system upgrade? Would be a bummer to miss out Wonder Woman... Thanks, Boris.
  2. Sad to hear. I rode it back in 2019 and it was rough but not unbearable. What parts where rough? The steel track or the topper track sections? Maybe just bad wheels?
  3. According to "https://www.dollywoodwaittimes.com/ride.php?ride=Lightning%20Rod&day=2022-07-09" Lightning Rod has again ongoing problems which keep the ride closed most of the day, even more so than a few weeks ago. I know that it never ran reliable and you have to expect longer downtimes if you plan to visit this park. However, it seems that the coaster had been doing OK so far this season until the beginning of July. Does anyone have any insight info what's going on, especially why it has more prolonged downtimes now?
  4. Japan borders are currently NOT open for foreign tourists. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2022/04/27/national/government-adviser-tourism/
  5. I think the next US travel review for 21th August is only about the Canada and Mexico land border closures. International travel from overseas is definitely suspended with no new review date in sight. I guess Europeans can write off US travel for this and maybe for next year as well. And that's really weird as I just met an US family during my visit at EnergyLandia. They flew into Spain and did a nice road trip through different countries, riding all the big new European Coasters like Tomorrowland, Kondaa, Abyssus. I love Cedar Point customer service as well, they were extremely accommodating regarding my hotel and season pass refund, Kings Island was definitely not as easy.
  6. Ideal: Flying over from Germany to do a US road trip in June/July/August (Hershey, Busch, Kings Island, Dollywood) and another Florida Trip in October..... Realistic: Europe trip (Walibi Belgium, Plopsaland, EnergyLandia, Phantasialand, Alton Towers)
  7. Park President Jeffery Siebert posted on a Facebook group that wonder woman is awaiting a part. He said that it should be back open early this week....not sure if it has reopened already?...
  8. Thanks for your detailed review! Are they expecting to have the coaster open until Memorial Day, we might visit the park in mid June so I hope they have it ready?
  9. Hi Bert, thanks for posting regular updates of your park visits. We will visit Fiesta Texas in August and we are wondering if Wonder Woman has reopened? The website still says temporarily closed, but https://queue-times.com/parks/39 lists it as open. When I contacted Six Flags via Email regarding the status of Bug's Rapids earlier, they told me that it is open, despite their website saying temporarily closed. So I assume they don't update the website too often? Any info from you appreciated. Thank you. Greetings from Germany, Boris.
  10. Is has been on 2 train operation for the last 4 days, except yesterday from 10:30-2pm, and the day before from 6pm on. Standing in line right now. So even with 2 trains and a regular crowded day it's always around the 2 hour mark.
  11. I had a chance to experience Steel Vengeance over the last 5 days. Can anybody tell me why the pullout after the first drop is slightly shifted to the right before the speed bump? Is that on purpose or did it have to be like that to allign with the 2nd big hill?
  12. Does anyone have any insight why Wonder Woman and Superman have been closed for at least 1 week now according to the Six Flags Website/queue-times.com? Apparently they are waiting on parts from RMC but what's wrong with Superman? I hope Rattler won't go down as well for our upcoming August visit...
  13. Word is that Steel Vengeance got struck by lightning last night and did not open at all today. Anyone at the park to confirm? If true, I hope they fix it until June, 23rd.....
