Six flags Management pt2

[MJL12785]

I started a new topic since not only will there be an update from the original post regarding management but a trip report as well. Unfortunately I do not have any photos to share. From the original post, I had made some negative comments I had regarding my season pass and some other issues...well here is the update and the trip report:

 

THE GOOD:

 

The day started with me going right up to guest relations trying to get my season pass problem taken care of. In case you didn't read the original post, in short, I was entitled to 20% off of this years pass but by the time they figured this out last year the season was over and had to renew once I got to the park this year. THe price had went up since last year, I wanted the 20% off of last years price when I would've have renewed it. Anyways....get to the window briefly explain what happened, showed them the email, within minutes, the problem was resolved. No questions, no, I need to go talk to my manage about this, NOTHING. Literally within 10 minutes the entire problem was taken care...HASSLE FREE no less. I also add parking to my season pass, which they subtracted the daily parking fee from the total parking pass. AWESOME. They also have lids and straws....hmm was this really ever a go green policy and everyone complained about this or they just ran out 3 weeks left in last years season and didn't want to reorder more. Whatever the case, I'm glad I got my lid and straw! I feel like I got my $4 worth. The crowds were VERY light. Got lots of multiple rides in, didn't even have to get off the trains! OH YEAH..... The Green Lantern looks awesome!

 

THE BAD:

 

Most rides were up and running but the following did have some downtime which always seemed to occur once we were about to get on, Superman, Kinda Ka, Bizarro, and Batman. El toro only had one train running which made this wait a little longer. I'm sure this is just an opening day issue and none of the problems seemed to be anything serious. Within 30 minutes everything was back up and running when the rides did break down.

 

THE UGLY:

 

Daily parking fee is now $17. OMG... I understand charging for parking but this is robbery. Considering in 2009, parking was $10. During the Fright Fest of 2009 it went up to $15 and stayed that way all of last year. The preferred parking did stay at $25. How nice of them.

 

Overall - very good day at the park. All of my problems were taking care of immediately at guest relations. Looking forward to another great coaster season!
