"Lightning Strikes Twice in 2021" Clearly they are adding a second launch to spice up the lackluster second half of this ride. -

At first I was thinking of the stand up Vortex trains and I really had to think for a second Didn't even think of Cyclone's shitty neighbor when I posted, lol. I'd be okay with a floorless conversion for Vortex. I'd be much more okay with tearing Vortex down and putting in an RMC Raptor clone. A man can dream, right? -

What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?
hoppedup replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
You could have a short drive to DollyWood, Lake Winnie, SFOG or Family Kingdom from where you live. Yeah, I know. I've been all over the east coast and mid-west for coasters. I am diabetic and my daughter is asthmatic, which may put us at greater risk if we were to get sick. Our passes are all good for next year now, so we can wait. We've been hiking every weekend in the mountains, which has been great. The coasters will be there when we are ready. I hope. -

Twisted Cyclone, December 27, 2019. Sadly, I'm probably looking at a coaster-free 2020. -

No surprise here, but Carowinds just announced they will not open in 2020. https://www.carowinds.com/park-update -
Vortex at Carowinds. It is awful. An abomination. Georgia Scorcher and Green Lantern weren't super terrible, but I'll probably never ride a standing coaster again. I actually liked Firebird. I never rode Apocalypse as it was closed on previous visits (not sure I would have ridden it anyway), but I found Firebird to be decent with just one head jerk moment.

That's why I want to cancel. I just wish they'd make it as easy to cancel as it is to sign up. edit: I called and got bounced around to a few different people and then put on hold. I gave up and moved my reservation out as far as I could, hoping there is a better system for cancellation in place before then. Also, the 'contact us' link on the website said, "Give us a call or send a note..." Couldn't find a number. I had to google to get the guest services phone number. -

Has anyone been able to cancel a reservation online with a Cedar Fair park? I logged in to CP website and was able to find a "Manage Reservation" button, entered my order number, but found no way to cancel. I really don't want to have to deal with a CSR on the phone if I don't have to. I have decided that parks just aren't going to happen for me this year. -

I don't think you are missing anything. I pushed my SFOG reservation out because I could not find a way to cancel. -

It does. Hence my 10:30 reservation. We are usually in and out in a few hours anyway. I just hope most coasters are running. I couldn't care less about flat rides.
