Six Flags and Cedar Fair to Merge

[DeadSexeh]

Most passholders know all about the merger and are eager to visit the "new" parks. All you have to do is look at the passholder groups on FB to see there would be a lot of new traffic if they did this..

Facebook groups are not the majority of passholders. They are a small community of people who are in the know. Yes you would see a small bump in attendance but most likely not much at all. There are only a few placed that would have general crossover (knotts & magic mountain, worlds of fun & st. Louis, dorney & great adventure ect). I get people want things for free, but I just don't see a benefit to doing it early. What six flags passes correlate to what CF passes? "Why is it fastlane here, but quick queue here? Why is my pass discount here a different percentage than this other park?" Just keep them separate, that is what everyone signed up for anyway. Less confusion and a more uniform product until you have the off-season to get things reset.

Apparently all park passes are going on sale in the coming weeks. Schlitterbahn is advertising an all park add on for 2025:

lol

I remember hearing about people fighting if we would get this add on/pass

Glad they did it, maybe next year I'll grab a pass for both parks and finally got to Knotts Holiday offerings

It'll be interesting to see how they handle soda/mug refills (I suspect it'll be an upcharge like Cedar Fair does), and if they'll honor SF Legacy Memberships (which I'm not exactly expecting, but holding out a very dim hope)

Here's a news article about the All-Park Passport. It probably won't be available until 2025.
New season pass grants access to all legacy Cedar Fair, select Six Flags parks
The add-on will allow access to legacy Cedar Fair parks and select Six Flags theme parks nationwide, including Knott’s Berry Farm, its seasonal Soak City waterpark and Six Flags Magic Mountain.

This is such a great deal.

Probably a couple weeks from using mine, but hoping to get a lot of use out of it this year.

Is there a way to up grade six Flags Prestige Season pass to this?

I paid around the same but not seeing options on the app to upgrade my pass

 

[Freak]

I'll probably get it soon, but I checked the process and it's a little confusing. Can I just buy the regular season pass or do I have to go for the gold pass to upgrade to the All-Park Pass? Does the All-Park pass include parking? I want to make sure I do it right cuz I'm mainly concerned about parking.

 

[Jerroddragon]

Yeah, its confusing...when I try to add it its saying its like 250 to add on

The way the season passes are organized in the Six Flags app is ... well, it isn't good. It does appear, and I could well be wrong about this, that it's significantly cheaper to buy the all-park passport and all that entails through Knott's than it is through Magic Mountain.

I got the all-park passport add-on to the Gold Pass (renewal). That includes parking.

Yeah, it's confusing for us, too... we have a Prestige Pass for Knott's, and a Diamond Elite VIP membership for Six Flags. But as far as I can tell, if I just added on the CF parks at Six Flags, we wouldn't be getting the Prestige benefits at those legacy CF parks.

But we would if we get an All Parks Pass at Knotts. So we sort of have to go through Knotts, I guess.

Also kind of disappointed that it's appearing that the refillable mugs are not consolidated across all the parks. The CF one only seems to list CF parks (and costs extra), but the SF Membership one is still free (again, I think only for legacy memberships), but only works at SF parks. Was really looking forward to just having one mug for all the parks.
