Glad to see it! Unfortunately for someone like me who likes to get the meal/drink add ons for both chains, it looks like I may still have to buy two separate passes. Unless I’m able to add legacy Six Flags add ons to my Cedar Point pass.
@@dodybrown6726 yea there’s a star next to my name lol. These guys are awesome, I had to become a member. I’ve only been a member for about 2/3 months now. It’s well worth it!
Thanks again, guys! I really appreciate that we can count on you to bring us the news on these things as they break, so we don't always have to frantically search for this information on our own. Your channel continues to add real value - thank you!
Its on the kings dominon website as well, but on a blog. so we will get the same option with the new passes, which most likely drop July 31st with the new coaster.
$190 vs $200. The savings from buying through canadas wonderland is better. Plus you can’t buy season long fast lane through schlitterbahn so if that’s of interest to you it’s a no go
Thanks for doing this video Jesse and Milo you guys always share information as soon as you guys hear anything you always do a great job appreciate you guys have a great day
On the Cedar Fair page it specifically says SELECT Six Flags parks in 2025. On the Six Flags page it says ALL Legacy Cedar Fair parks. That's an important distinction...hmm. I'm more interested in visiting Cedar Fair parks, but I still want the ability to visit the Six Flags parks too. Our closest parks are Legacy Cedar Fair parks with our closest Six Flags being either Atlanta or St. Louis. I also noticed they made a distinction that things like meal vouchers or drink cups will still be specific to the Legacy brand where they were originally purchased. So if you buy a meal plan at a SF it is not good at a CF...
@@BeachcliffStudios Sorry. The exact wording on CF website is "additional parks" whereas the Six Flags website says "all legacy Cedar Fair parks." I took a screenshot, but apparently can't share it here. There is a difference in wording
How did this merger get passed anyway? They’ve got essentially no competition so prices will go up and there won’t be any push to lower prices and add new attractions. If you think about it, it is a terrible merger.
You're looking at it half glass empty. Focus on the benefits for both companies long term. They still can't survive if they don't add new attractions to keep attendance up anyway. Not to mention, there are many parks that still don't have much direct competition right now, so don't overstate that aspect of it.
The parks really didn't compete even before the merger. Most of them have no other theme parks in their regions. The true competition for regional parks is other forms of entertainment. If they raise prices too high, there are plenty of other entertainment options in most markets and they would sink. I don't think there's too much to worry about.
The have loads of competition. Hardly any of these parks are considered the top parks in America so logically speaking, people are traveling to Orlando, Branson, Pigeon Forge, LA, and other more prominent areas. They own 26 parks, but most of the parks are mediocre.
If I remember correctly, I feel like the merger was announced shortly after Universal announced they were building a regional park in Texas that was more aimed at young families (as opposed to Universal in Florida and California that seems more aimed at families with teens and the thrill seeker crowd.) I think they fear if that park is a success, Universal will build more parks around the US. Plus, Busch/Sea World keep expanding their parks, and seemingly just entered a phase where they are adding more family friendly attractions. I think Cedar Point and Six Flags see these two companies as a threat, and that is why they merged. I also think that is why you are seeing them adding more theming, more family friendly attractions, and why they are trying to have more events/experiences.
@BeachcliffStudios what I'm saying is, they should offer 2 different versions at 2 different prices. Like legacy cedar fair parks only be cheaper than all parks
That's upsetting regarding not having merged meal and drink plans, I don't get why not? With the fast lane / flash pass I figured that would be harder to merge right away at least at the parks that operate all calendar year long in the south and California. Hopefully Flash Pass where you have to use your phone app goes the way of the dodo at some point in 2025 and they all become Fast Lane by 2026 and you can get your all park all season fast lane by then. Was hoping for 2025 but it's difficult
If six flags flash pass via phone works anything like Kennywood's Speedy pass then I can tell you that system is way better and way More fair than the fast lane
I have the flashpass. It works so great on my phone. I prefer that over them dumbass wrist watch things we used to have to use. Especially paying for the different levels of flashpass. It keeps the lines throttled down instead of stacking
Flash pass at great America wouldn’t even allow us to get on Goliath and only gave us an option for max force at closing. Give me the separate queue like every other park chain does.
How will affect other perks such as flash pass and fast lane single use and Speedy parking and general parking for cedar fair parks and free drink bottle
Good news regarding the all parks pass. But I hope you’re wrong about Fast Lane. The Flash all season is good for all SF parks for 1/3 of the FL season pass. Which is only one park. Idc what they call it, I just want the SF Flash price.
@@BeachcliffStudios yeah, because we have the never ending monthly payment. I’m wondering if they will have an option to increase our monthly payment or if it will be a yearly one time payment for all parks.
I'm hearing to add the cedar fair parks into our memberships it will be a one time payment add on annually. Just remember your six flags dining or flashpass, add ons will not work at the cedar fair parks in 2025. Same for cedar fair pass holders showing up at a six flags. I'm sure they are working on it but at this point that is what it says in the fine print.

That All Parks Passport 2025 add-on if you buy through Schlitterbahn sounds like a steal
For real. only 75$ for all parks?
agreed!!
@@itzfree1239$190 for all parks.
$190 vs $200. The savings from buying through canadas wonderland is better. Plus you can’t buy season long fast lane through schlitterbahn so if that’s of interest to you it’s a no go
Glad I got my Prestige plus pass renewal for next year, add passport to other parks as well.
Thanks guys, love your channel for park info!
Thanks for stopping by.
I wish they would do a 2 parks Ohio pass
Too bad the add-ons won’t carry over between the legacy parks though
I agree, they need to make that right. Your dining and other add on should cross over. It's only right if your paying for all park access
Thanks! Another great vid! Sure do appreciate the new info👍
How was kings island?
@@BeachcliffStudiosAWESOME!! It seemed so much smaller compared to CP but apparently they’re both 364 acres!!
Yess! I can't wait

It doesn’t say select, it lists a few parks and then says and more.

They should of done 2 options, all park passport for legacy cedar fair parks, and all park passport for all parks. Weird seeing you without a hat lol
No need to do two different ones if the one is the same price though. And yes, I’m not comfortable without the hat

This is exactly what I was hoping for via the merger
This is interesting. Thank u. This is off topic but do u know when they will announce their new rides for all the parks for the 2025 season
Kings dominion just did there’s today, we have a video up now about it.
@@BeachcliffStudios ok thank u. How about the rest of the six flags parks
@@mikegjr1 there’s a rumor that six flags America is getting an intamin family coaster but no official word on when the announcements will come.
@@BeachcliffStudios ok thank u
THE ONE PAAASSSSS
THE ONE PASS IS REEEAAAALLLLL!!!
How will affect other perks such as flash pass and fast lane single use and Speedy parking and general parking for cedar fair parks and free drink bottle
Shouldn’t affect anything like that, you just can’t use s pass add on at the other chain’s park for this season.
I’m excited and surprised that this level of integration will be offered for 2025
We weren’t expecting it
Good news regarding the all parks pass. But I hope you’re wrong about Fast Lane. The Flash all season is good for all SF parks for 1/3 of the FL season pass. Which is only one park. Idc what they call it, I just want the SF Flash price.
Legacy six flags parks look like they’ll still have the flash pass and therefore all season flash pass.
@@BeachcliffStudios Cool
i just checked the cedar point app, and there's nothing on there yet. it still only has 2024 passes available.
It's in a blog post
They haven’t released anything for sale yet
VERY interesting, my six flags pass expires jan 5th 2025
Probably when ours expires too then.
Curious how this will work for Six Flags Legacy Members…
You mean people grandfathered in?
@@BeachcliffStudios yeah, because we have the never ending monthly payment. I’m wondering if they will have an option to increase our monthly payment or if it will be a yearly one time payment for all parks.

@@FLXCoasters monthly payments surely won’t go away
When will you be at KI next
Not sure
2 passes needed for add-ons, still.
Two passes?
You mean the six flags legacy and cedar fair legacy? Yeah not sure how that would work.
MULTIPASS!!!
This was rolled out poorly. I hope this is not an indication of how things to be.
They just basically announced it. Not sure what else I’d want or expect.
75$ for all parks!!!!
On top of the $115 for the regular pass
@@BeachcliffStudios oh
Firstttt
