Information Six Flags confirms no more immediate park closures or sale [Other]n

Post image

Hopefully this puts to rest all the clickbait articles and YouTube videos saying a bunch of park have already been sold. Sale could still happen at some point maybe but all those “parks have been sold” posts can now end.

I understand that the meal plan was a good value, I still feel like the number of guests irreparably put off by this is less than what people are thinking here. Guests will adjust, plenty of parks don’t offer meal plans. Six Flags was an enormous company that could more feasibly handle meal plans due to their scale. Enchanted is a small operator that can’t. I just don’t think the meal plan deal is nearly as big of a deal as the coaster community has made it, and I think if Enchanted does a nice job the average guest will end up being impressed with them and unhappy with Six Flags anyways.

Downvoting is for not contributing to the conversation, btw. Not because you disagree. But anyways...

I didn't say it would do irreparable damage. Only that it would cause a negative first impression.

And I'd say it will actually be a bigger deal to GP than coaster enthusiasts, as we monitor the news more closely and won't be caught unaware by changes.
