Hershey_flags Posted March 9, 2020 Posted March 9, 2020 There are a lot of changes going on around the park. One of the other additions that has not been mentioned on here yet is that Riddle Me This will be getting a queue line where the exit was last season. This will allow for better flow into Harley Quinn on the few days the park gets crowded. Also, apparently some of the kiddie rides will be getting some love in Movietown and Capital Railways should be seeing some enhancements.

Canobie Coaster Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Looks like Six Flags America is postponing their opening day, which was originally set to be March 28.  Per CBS Baltimore:  Coronavirus Closings: Six Flags America Suspending Operations, Delaying Opening Date  WASHINGTON (WJZ) — Six Flags America is temporarily suspending its operations due to the coronavirus.  The park had been scheduled to open on March 28, but officials said that date has been pushed back.  https://www.google.com/amp/s/baltimore.cbslocal.com/2020/03/13/coronavirus-closings-six-flags-america-suspending-operations-delaying-opening-date/amp/
DarkRideNick Posted March 17, 2020 Posted March 17, 2020 I don't understand why they are closing? You don't spread jerms on a roller coaster. It's outside and you are far from other people. If anything they could just limit park capacity.

Â That's a bit extreme, scottiemon, but yes--Germs can exist on any and every surface--including roller coaster trains. Assuming 2-across seating and 10-minute dispatches plus ride time, that's still about 10 people per hour to potentially get infected. And that's at one ride. You touch the train and then your face (you're going to do it, I guarantee it), congratulations! You just got Coronavirus! And those 10 people will infect more and more and more people.
Hershey_flags Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Here is the 2020 park map which shows the new front entrance area, Steelworks Pub (new bar in Gotham), Gotham City Gifts, the no smoking symbol for Hurricane Harbor, the locations that will have mobile food ordering, and Harley Quinn Spinsanity.
DarkRideNick Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Really? The DC Villains bar is named STEELWORKS PUB? They could've at least had a DC Comics themed name. Â I still resent Six Flags for not utilizing a Fortnite theme.
JG-77 Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Any idea where I can find a full resolution copy of the map? The map on the website is from last year.
DarkRideNick Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 You must be new to Six Flags. Â I've been attending Six Flags parks since I was 19 years old. I am very familiar with their extensive DC Comics theming, I would have hoped it extended to this new pub.
Hershey_flags Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 The map keeps altering between the 2019 map and the new one. Just keep going to the website until you succeed. As for the new bar, Steelworks Pub is not that bad of a name/theme at all. I for one don’t need to see a DC character every single place I go.

DILinator Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 You don't spread jerms on a roller coaster. Â Jerms? What's my nickname for my younger brother have to do with this?
Jason Maier Posted March 28, 2020 Posted March 28, 2020 Damn, would have gone to opening weekend today and/or tomorrow
DoinItForTheFame Posted March 28, 2020 Posted March 28, 2020 You don't spread jerms on a roller coaster. Â jerms?!?! Â And yes.... You do spread germs on a roller coaster.
Hershey_flags Posted April 1, 2020 Posted April 1, 2020 The state of Maryland is allowing Six Flags America to continue construction inside the park. While I have not seen any photos of the renovated entrance area, there were a few photos posted of Harley Quinn!

Now in addition to the park's curse of Eleanor, this ride will have the Curse of Coronavirus! Construction should've been halted. Lives are at risk!
JG-77 Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 As long as proper safety precautions are taken (i.e. wearing masks and gloves, frequently washing and sanitizing hands, maintaining safe distance), I think it's probably ok to continue outdoor construction.
bill_s Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 Construction is already dangerous. If parks are delayed opening and improvement plans are also delayed, even though they've started paying for them already, that's a double hit. Also workers may have other projects scheduled later.
bert425 Posted April 4, 2020 Posted April 4, 2020 in *most* of the States with Stay at Home orders, Construction is considered "essential" and is being allowed to continue. Â ESPECIALLY Construction in open air/outside situations - as it's possible to maintain social distancing. Â Austin has allowed construction on buildings downtown to continue, as an exemption to the original City Shelter In Place order (well before the Governor issued a State-wide decree). Â just sharing info, not judging.
Highridin Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 I'm glad they are continuing. Good news is that all will be ready by opening.
Hershey_flags Posted April 8, 2020 Posted April 8, 2020 Definitely will be interesting to see how the new entrance plaza turns out! Really have not heard or seen too much about it.
