I guess I am stupid. I think I stated at one point that a Knotts Prestige + All Parks came with 2 guest passes but a SFMM did not, but it is the legacy Six Flags Prestige All Parks add on that gives you the 2 guest passes and not the Prestige pass by itself. This is backwards from Cedar Fair legacy parks where the Prestige Pass is the more expensive portion of the pass and comes with the guest tickets. Doh!

All number rounded up to nearest dollar: OriginalIy, I checked Frontier City and they were down to $100 for Prestige + $225 for an All-Parks or $325 total and I figured that they were one of the smaller in the chain. Magic Mountain is still $120 Prestige + $350 All-Parks or $470 total with no 2 guest passes so I am going to stick with Knott's for $375 Prestige + $100 All-Parks or $475 with 2 guest passes. I just tried SFOG from California web location and got $100 Prestige + $215 All Parks and SFOT $120 Prestige + $205 All Parks, so I think they are all over the place and don't know what is going on. It makes sense that the only top corporate position that came from legacy Six Flags was Chief Technology Officer. It also seems like they want at least $300 from someone from California location to get all the parks. Thanks for responding to my post tndank

Which park are you speaking about? It is $100 at Knotts and $350 at Magic Mountain for Prestige Passes All-Park Add Ons with no recent changes. Six Flags is also up to their old trick of constant emails of sales of up to 70% off of tickets and passes but when you get to their website the passes are normal prices and day tickets are the only thing on sale. Knott's is also pushing the gold pass and has added a best value sticker. Just $9 per family member after that initial payment plus parking for mom or dad or whoever drives to the park. You can also add All-Parks, but most people will not read that far into the terms and conditions.

The deep fried and many other items are unhealthy but Knott's has some healthy options like: Casa California Restaurante chicken burrito bowl, with black beans, tomatos, lettuce, and salsa. The Boardwalk and Fireman BBQ have a 1/4 rotisserire chicken that you can deskin, and have with a side of cold slaw that appears to be freshly made at the park. Panda's grilled teriyaki chicken with super greens

I was going to use Fontier and Motel Six, wait for ir, Flags but I didn't want to look poor Perhaps Mr. Six will come back and I can get a job as a Six Flags intern helping drive the "Party Bus" to every park location and I'll ride the coasters while Mr Six does his promotional dances next summer? I am having Chat GPT take this old YouTube video plus my Linkedin profile and create the best unsolicited job application ever!

When Cedar Fair - Knott's changed to the "Knott's Prestige Pass" from the "Cedar Fair Platinum Pass" and it was no longer good at all Cedar Fair parks unless you gave them $100 and parking was a $75 add on for everything but Prestige, I knew what was happening to the combined chain someday. It just wasn't good. Cedar Fair only got all the top corporate managment jobs because they caught Mr. Selim Bassoul and Mr. Wile E. Coyote playing with Acme Products one too many times and sent Selim to the bench and Richard to CEO. At least you could eat all the chips and Grandmas cookies and brownies; one at a time inside the VIP lounge without paying $5 each! Wow! Just eat them there and don't put them in your bag! No spicy Cheetos or Knott's cookies either? Couches, AC, and free snacks are three things you can't find at Knott's. And they are only free with the $399 2024 pass or $375 2025 pass. This was near opening weekend of the VIP lounge, but they didn't sell many $399 passes, so the summer is not crowded either. They had a place to use your soda pass but I had to walk to the saloon for my alcohol. Shirts and merch are extra and the cashier makes sure you don't abuse the one snack at a time policy.

It could be hard to get your money's worth from a Knott's Prestige Pass but for me with 15 expected visits this year, and two out of state family without Six Flags or Cedar Fair Passes but like amusement parks: 1: Free preferred parking $75+ 2: Two guests tickets for my visiting sister and brother in law each year from Denver. $150+ total combined 3. One free fastlane per visit approx value to me (15 visits @ $8 each = $120) 4 Access to VIP area with AC and small snacks that would cost approx $5 in the park @ 15 visits = $75. They have Grandmas cookies and potato chips but you have to finish a bag before devouring the next. You can't jam five bags in your backpag and leave. Grand total of $75+150+120+75=$420 extra benefits on a pass that was $399 compared to $99. If I didn't use the guest tickets or missed the VIP lounge or fastlanes on several visits the benefits disapear. The same 10% off food doesn't matter if you have a meal and drink pass.

Six Flags Knott's release 2025 passes *All-Parks- legacy Cedar Fair only until Jan 6, 2025, and then legacy Six Flags added per terms and conditions. All Season Dining is a $145 add on for all pass types with out all-parks and $155 with them. All season drinks are $35.95 for regular soda or premium plan of $51.99 if you also wants Icees and and hot drinks. No Starbucks or alcohol disocounts or inclusions All season home park flastlane is $675 and all-park for $999. I can always dream I just need all-season Hilton and America Airlines to go with it. I'll get my two meals a day at the parks.

Since the stock ticker symbol is "FUN" and not "SIX", this is Cedar Fair with Six Flags name tags. The old contracts are probably worth the goodwill that the new Six Flags wishes to extend or its willingness to not piss off existing customers. Once they make enough profit, the terms tend to chnage in their favor. I wonder when Sig Flags will visit Vegas and learn to charge a $39 per day resort fee? You know: fountains, drinking fountains, bathrooms, perhaps a pool in the water park are enough for a fee Someday it will be $20 for a picture with Buggs but $10 for Daffy!

Aqua Shoe vs Aqua Sock
SoCalJasonland replied to SoCalJasonland's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I was hoping I could carry my slides/flip flops on the slides or buy something approved at the park gift shop. I guess the water park is closed on Monday so I am saved. I don't go to water parks much but hot concrete on bare feet is my least favorite part Soak City doesn't have a lot of shade and it is 87 Monday. -
I spent a day at the Temecula Mall looking at everything from Dick's Sporting Goods to Macy's to Pac Sun and nobody had heard of Aqua Socks or Water Socks. I was handed water shoes at a couple of places. I checked over 10 stores in total. I searched online for Aqua Socks and Water Socks, and every link took me to socks that were also described as Aqua Shoes. Per Cedar Fair and Six Flags websites, Aqua Shoes are not allowed on the attractions and I assume that they could damage surfaces. Where do you find water park-approved Aqua Socks to keep from burning your feet on the concrete that you can also wear on the slides? I have given up on sporting goods stores, the mall, Amazon, and Google. Any other ideas? The internet has failed me.

Unless they are remodeling much, Cedar Fair is proving that their takeover of Six Flags isn't changing much on the Cedar Fair side except for the name. All the top corporate management, the corporate office, pass system, add on prices for all-parks, food packages, drinks packages, premium drinks packages are all transferring Cedar Fair's 2024 policies to 2025. I think most changes will come on the Six Flags side as they have already added Cedar Fair chaperon policies to Six Flags parks. My favorite were the stupid YouTube videos of people stating Six Flags passes should not be good at Cedar Fair and vice versus. I am thinking, really? So, my Six Flags Magic Mountain Pass will be good at Six Flags over Texas and Six Flags America, but it will not be good at Six Flags Knott’s Berry Farm or Six Flags Cedar Point? Which Cedar Fair parks will it not be good at since Cedar Fair does not exist once the merger is appoved? I guess it will take them until Jan 6th to merge the pass/membership systems but after that, it should be one pass system.

https://www.ocregister.com/2024/07/30/knotts-and-magic-mountain-to-offer-season-pass-combo-in-2025/ I have to wait a few weeks for my combo Knott's and Magic Mountain pass though per the Orange County California Register if you can't access the article. No specific price was quoted. The article babbles on with irrelevant information on what every other chain charges for admission in So Cal but not the 2025 all-park prices for Schlitterbahn or Cedar Point? Great research! I am guessing that yealy parks will not get their 2025 pass info until the end of August or just past Labor Day but the prices should be close. "Knott’s and Magic Mountain will offer a season pass good for both parks in 2025 — but you’ll have to pay for a whole lot of theme park access across North America that you probably don’t need and likely won’t use. Knott’s Berry Farm and Six Flags Magic Mountain will offer an All Park Passport add-on next year that gets select season passholders into all legacy Cedar Fair and Six Flags parks starting on Jan. 6, according to Knott’s and Six Flags officials. A Southern California season pass good for only Knott’s and Magic Mountain is not planned at this time. Prices will be announced in the next few weeks when 2025 season passes and add-ons go on sale at all legacy Cedar Fair and Six Flags parks. ..."

If you have a VPN, try a So Cal address and clear your cookies as these are screen shots from these past couple of minutes in Southern California so maybe they are ripping off people in other states? The date and time are at the bottom right. I don't know why we are getting different numbers. Not trying to be difficult. USA Today was the first to report on it a couple of days ago and they said it was $115 at Schlitterbahn so they got different numbers too. Schlitterbahn Cedar Point

Actually, the all-park is $99.99 at Cedar Point and it was $100 at Knott's last year but I didn't purchase it, but here are similar receipts/orders showing 2024 Knott's vs 2025 Cedar Point, as Knott's doesn't have 2025 passes yet for me. Prices have not changed much for getting more parks. The only ripoff was that I didn't get a renewal price because the "Prestige Pass" was new. Big Whoops. But glad TPR is back! My receipt for 2024 Knotts without the $100 all-park addon 2025 quote for Cedar Point with a $99.99 all-park addon

Meanwhile not AI, but do you want your Six Flags Magic Mountain Psyclone to go? Me too.... Perhaps we could go back in time and put something else here that equally sucked? Even the Colossus had to go through conversion therapy: After all it is Playtime at SFNO. Aft Do you mean everything was underwater? Yep, but we did mention that everything is half-off?

I have been an insurance adjuster. I wish I could make AI walk up a ladder, pull a tarp off a roof, take a bunch of photos and measurements, and write an estimate for me while I enjoy a White Claw before my Tesla drives me home. Fantasy world, but great to think of nonetheless. I was an insurance adjuster through a third-party for SFMM for a couple of years before they went bankrupt. Guess which ride made the most people scream.? Crap, I guess I just gave that away in the question The first image is a floor plan I created with LIDAR and a laptop program, and the second floor plan was completed by AI with a 3D camera submitted to Matterport. I never could have drawn the rounded stair or hall walls without it. Xactware is trying to get rid of us on the easy claims by allowing insureds to submit photos and then AI writes the easier repair estimate. I also get my estimates graded by AI and it sucks. I know it is AI because I get my estimate rejected almost as soon as I click submit It always states you can't add extra labor without an explanation but the explanation is always there.
