Just wow! I had medium expectations for what this would turn out to be both with the rides and the look of the land. Based on the photos and reviews Pandora looks like it will easily exceed those expectations and be a big hit for DAK. Look forward to getting back to Disney eventually check out this new land, especially at night!

Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread
SuperShawn replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Despite freezing temperatures this morning some friends and I headed up to the park knowing not everything would probably be open today. I was shocked that by the time we got to the park at 1pm ish it was just a little over 40 degrees out and all the coasters except fahrenheit and lightening racers were operating. -
I'll chime in a bit on this whole thing. Once upon a time I think SFA was deserving of all the bad views towards it. But I must say in the past 3 years I've been visiting the park semi frequently they are not as terrible as many make them out to be anymore. From my visits the staff have been friendlier and friendlier each year, and the park is doing little things around the park to clean up each year and it doesn't seem as run down as my first visit 6 years ago. My typical visit is for 1-3 hours somewhere between 4-6 times a year en route to visit relatives on a Sunday or Monday. Nothing ever has more than a few train wait and I agree that their OPs are slow, but based on my visits I've never seen a reason for them to need to have insanely fast ops. At this point outside of having a weak ride line up, I don't see SFA as that much worse than other Six Flags parks as far as Clientele, customer service, and over all experience goes anymore.

As someones who works with international customers and deals with a payment system that can and will reject international credit cards, I can tell you it's frustrating for all parties but it 100% does not mean I am nor the people of Dollywood are giving you terrible customer service. I have found with any issue minor or frustrating I have had with bookings and various things with Dollywood their staff have always gone above and beyond to fix the issue or be helpful. -

Jeez, just skimmed the Dollywood Facebook page, I feel so sorry for those in PR and Guest Relations, as well as all their front line people over this weekend... Not a fun scenario for the park and staff Positive side, it's still a great park and there will be Cinnamon bread to enjoy -

This will be the 5th year I've gone for opening weekend and season pass holder day. Each year a new coaster has opened the weekend has been far busier than the none ride opening years. Even still most the coasters have had short lines to even walk on waits opening weekend except which ever the new ride is. Like wild eagle and fire chaser both stayed well over an hour wait most of pass holder day and Saturday the years they opened, Sunday drops pretty drastically in crowds thanks to it being church day. The other thing with opening weekend is to remember a lot of people come to see the shows and of course Dolly who's in the park just Friday and Saturday. -
