Ya king da ka is expensive af it’s believed to be 1 million a year to run. Also the company that manufactured it also the same company who made Superman which is currently closed rn had a manufacturing untrusted issue. So it’s either very expensive or non trusted materials on the ride. I’ve rode it 4 times it’s a great ride I hope it does not close
Ive been asking my mom to go to the park, she said that we could go for my birthday next week, and i told her about kingda ka closing, and she for some reason called six flags to ask when it was closing, somehow she got an answer. The worker said “it will be closing for the season after this sunday” take this information as you will, if you either think its done for on sunday, or it will come back next year, no one knows what will actually happen, all we can do is hope for the best future for kingda ka.
I live in mass and I go to Great adventure at least 4 times a year. Since like 2018 I've never had to wait more than 10mins to get on King da ka regardless of the time on day. (Baring down time). I wouldn't be surprised if the general public were indifferent to hearing it's closing (if they even heard about it). I think the only people that really care/ don't want it to close are the amusement parks/ rollercoaster enthusiasts and people who've worked at the park. It was kinda the same way when they closed Goliath at SFNE. Guests didn't really care that it was gone they just wanted a new ride
We have yet to see any white markings next to Kingda Ka so I'm sure it will get a change like a retheme and redesign and it will come with the Golden Kingdom area going away and turning into something else
I’m so glad someone else has realized this. There are white markers everywhere by twister lantern and the parachutes but not one even remotely close to ka. Also there are green markers by lantern where the sewers are and that is not near ka. Also went by Zumanjaros station and there was no markings in there. I think it’ll get redone with lsms. But anything can happen
@jacobrotkowitz3978 The same markers that showed up over near GL have also appeared by KK. It's a done deal and it makes perfect sense because this ride has been a maintenance and operational nightmare from day one. Don't forget that cedar fair has majority control over the combined chain of parks and as a result has the sole discretion to decide what problematic attractions can be removed from each individual park at a moment's notice. I wouldn't be surprised if we see even more attractions getting removed chain wide during the off season.
@@michaezell4607 the only markers found by ka are orange and I think there might be a few pink. The ones by lantern are orange, green, blue and white. White means excavation and those have not been seen even remotely close to ka. We will see what happens but I don’t see them taking it down because it’s such a GP pleaser and sells tickets. I see them adding lsms and extending it but anything can happen. But again there are no WHITE markers near ka
@ Should've been more clear. I meant to say, I haven't ridden Kingda Ka, and I don't want to go to Saudi Arabia for Falcons Flight, to ride the tallest rollercoaster.
That's what they say, but the rumor is that they're going to close it for the season and just not open it ever again and remove it from the park without announcing it. It's hard to say at the moment if the rumors are true, but I sure hope not
People all over online have been saying tons of different things, one of the main reasons why I’m not buying for this, if everyone was saying the same thing , different story
Everyone has a different story since it's all rumors that are being spread and not actually facts, so often people change it slightly. The original rumor from Coaster Studios stated that the ride would be closing sometime soon due to it being too costly of a ride, and it would be removed from the park along with some other rides
Gonna miss ka man i love this coaster one of my favorite coaster besides el toro even though it's a short ride man this sucks and knowing it's gonna be gone forever is just gut wrenching
Well Great Adventure had removed many classic coasters they used to have which Iw as really disappointed at them for removing Rolling Thunder! Nothing lasts forever life goes on and all! Roller Coaster Tycoon for life!
NOoo!!!! I have not yet ridden kingda ka but really want to. But I cant get to NJ tomorrow!! 😭 higher cost but a main icon or draw for the park!!! bad decision!!! refurbish maybe (to avoid top thrill's problem) but they should keep!!
Well, they haven't said anything about it closing yet, and probably won't for a while if they do plan on doing that, but sometime over the next few months, they may possibly remove it
PLEASE DON'T CLOSE KINGDA KA THIS RIDE IS MY FAVORITE I'LL BE VERY, VERY, VERY , VERY UPSET IF THIS RIDE CLOSES FOREVER!!!! 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Fortunately I was able to ride this in summer of 2023. Very sad to hear that king da Ka is closing. Rip legend king da ka
Definitely, I was hoping to ride it next summer, but I guess I won't be able to now
@ I’m sorry to hear that. That’s really to bad
Long live the king 🧡🩵💚
May the king rest in peace
good but i am not and i hate those that want to destroy my dream

Hmm
I’m not buying for it

My heart rate is super high, I can’t lose this. I was depressed when we lost top thrill, now kingda ka? Idk if I can take it
Bro it’s just a coaster it’s sad but calm down
And it’s not leaving
I am a local and it’s the only good ride besides El Toro. It’s good to hear it isn’t going anywhere
Yeah same, I’m 30 minutes down the road and it and jaro are the only reasons why I still go
@ yeah me too, why is nobody caring about the tallest drop tower in the world???
We have yet to see any white markings next to Kingda Ka so I'm sure it will get a change like a retheme and redesign and it will come with the Golden Kingdom area going away and turning into something else

But anything can happen
The only white markers are OUTSIDE the golden kingdom nowhere near ka

Get your last rides on green lantern! Don't forget about that vintage standup
This is for the parachutes that’s confirmed to be going it’s pretty obvious that everything is gone from it besides the tower
Bro I haven't ridden it yet please, I'm not going all the way to Saudi Arabia to ride the worlds tallest rollercoaster.
It's not in Saudi Arabia. It's in New Jersey! Lol 😆
@ Should've been more clear. I meant to say, I haven't ridden Kingda Ka, and I don't want to go to Saudi Arabia for Falcons Flight, to ride the tallest rollercoaster.
Ah, I see
It’s not I called the park and they said it’s closing for the season
That's what they say, but the rumor is that they're going to close it for the season and just not open it ever again and remove it from the park without announcing it. It's hard to say at the moment if the rumors are true, but I sure hope not
They won’t tell you on the phone unless it’s confirmed
People all over online have been saying tons of different things, one of the main reasons why I’m not buying for this, if everyone was saying the same thing , different story
But if I’m right it closed for the season on Nov 17th
Everyone has a different story since it's all rumors that are being spread and not actually facts, so often people change it slightly. The original rumor from Coaster Studios stated that the ride would be closing sometime soon due to it being too costly of a ride, and it would be removed from the park along with some other rides

“Take this with a grain of salt” and “I’m 95% certain this will happen” in the same video
Well 95% sure is my opinion, but my opinions may be wrong so that's why I say take it with a grain of salt
Rip the king
Well Great Adventure had removed many classic coasters they used to have which Iw as really disappointed at them for removing Rolling Thunder!
Nothing lasts forever life goes on and all!
Roller Coaster Tycoon for life!

High in maintenance but im sure ka brings a lot of guest
La vibora at over Texas is gone.
Intamin get used to six flags
Just take the drop tower away from King da ka and just change the color scheme and the whole mascot
Chill out it ant goin nowhere
It might...
Everyone told me I’d be in for a big surprise Nov 10th… I’m still here😂,
Well, they haven't said anything about it closing yet, and probably won't for a while if they do plan on doing that, but sometime over the next few months, they may possibly remove it
Until thy say something I’m not buying for it
Ok, same with me. I'm not believing it's staying, but I'm also not believing it's leaving until six flags confirms it

Unfortunately, it isn't looking too good for it's survival 😪
You can hop over to top thrill 2 next year. Gonna miss Ka, but she'll be with son of beast. I heard they're put in a 4d giga called Osiris
Paint marks by it
