NEW YORK, Sept. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Six Flags, Inc.

The surveys were conducted by independent firm Delta Market Research of Hatboro, Pennsylvania, a nationally recognized company which has researched all aspects of the theme park industry for companies including The Walt Disney Company. These results reflect input from guests at 14 Six Flags branded locations.

The continued positive word of mouth is restoring health to the Six Flags brand," said Mark Shapiro, Six Flags President and CEO.

-- Ride safety

-- Enforcement of Guest Code of Conduct and non-smoking policies

-- Diversity of entertainment options

-- Thrill rides

-- Roller coasters

-- Shows

-- Rides for children

 

In addition, guests responded with high marks to "definitely will recommend the parks to a friend" and "the park visit was better than expected."

 

For August 2007, Six Flags parks received significantly higher guest satisfaction scores over the same period in 2006, with markedly higher ratings in areas including:

 

-- Overall satisfaction with visit

They obviously didn't audit Magic Mountain.

 

I was thinking the same thing.

 

I won't be convinced that this "priority of delivering a high quality guest service experience" is 'real' until it starts happening consistently. At ALL the parks.

 

Not just for the inaugural summer of the new owner.
