Traditionally you are allowed to do this as long as you do it either before the ticket is redeemed or at Guest Relations before you leave the park on the day you’ve used your ticket. The only catch there being that if you decide to upgrade your ticket to a pass that would be blocked out on the day you visit, they may not let you apply that value towards the lower tier annual pass, only one that would not be blocked out from visiting on the day you’re there.

Same here. We’re going the second week in June and I’m hoping the park gets their maintenance act together before then… They still haven’t posted their VIP tour options either despite having several weekends of operation behind them now.

Once again Grona Lund has gotten really creative with their placement of a new coaster it looks great! Really hoping one day I can get out to the park to experience this unique place myself!

Last week I had the opportunity to attend an annual passholder preview of the Jurassic World VelociCoaster at Universal's Islands of Adventure... I'll start the report by simply saying this thing is AWESOME! The VelociCoaster is designed with a fun first half that weaves in and out of itself after the first launch before throwing you into a much more intense second half. The drop coming off of the top hat gives some insane airtime and the inverted stall is such a neat maneuver. The final roll over the water is also intense and flips you only a few feet above the lagoon. All of this said,

Yeah, I’ve found references to 2019 pricing… I was looking at the standard (non-unlimited) option that looked closer to $50 but I’ve found mixed references to it having assigned times for each ride. We’re stopping at Kennywood (for our first time) for 4-6 hours before driving to Hershey, so I’m just trying to figure out an economical way to experience the best of in the park that works for our schedule.

I’m hopeful that they take the next month and get things under control… I’m visiting for the first time next month and it would be a bummer to have so many of the big coasters down. They’ve yet to update their site with VIP Coaster Tour options and pricing for this year… Other than finding references to previous years, I can’t get any valuable details that explain what their fast lane/quick queue equivalent is or how it works.
