Lines at Kings Island's Winterfest are RIDICULOUS!

A Saturday night Winterfest is always crowded regardless of weather. Mystic Timbers was built to handle Winterfest cold weather. Enjoyed the video

Trent; thanks for being an awesome human 🤙 As a Winterfest critique; I would much prefer to see the tower outfitted in lights proper (on the tower supports) And a huge, more traditional tree in between the tower and reflecting pool.

We got there about 5:30 and that prestige pass line was closed. Its supposed to be open for the first 2 hours. Lines to enter were crazy.

I'm going the 28th, can't wait, missing cedar point.

They put a lot of effort into it. But that's Xmas overload for me. Halloween is my holiday. Are you going to make it to Sawmill Creek? I'd like to see some Mistletones. I'm only 45 min away. But didn't go last season. I've been to S.C. once during the summer.

We went on Winterfest opening weekend. It was very cold but fun. I hope it was a bit warmer for you guys. We pretty much just kept getting the hot chocolate. The ride lines were bad when we went too. Alanna only made it onto one coaster, Myistic. But we had fun with all the shows and trying the holiday food. Its always interesting to check out the ice carver too.

[@hillorisartin6129]

It was much nicer this past weekend. We were there opening night and again this same day.

[@notyournormalg1]

Would you like to attend Winterfest this year?

Looks fun. Wish I could come down to kings island.

Usually I would use the single rider lane, but now it’s gone. And hey FL is 35 bucks so it’s not that bad.

We went to Winterfest Thanksgiving weekend and I have to disagree with you about the fast lane line adding to the massive lines. We have all season Fastlane and every ride that we went to with Fastlane that weekend had absolutely nobody in it! And from your video for that insane line at Mystic Timbers the fast lane line was empty? We are not rich we buy all season Fastlane and to do that we forgo some other luxuries like we never buy expensive drinks at the park don't spend money for overpriced merchandise merchandise or pay a ridiculous amount for Prestige pass we get a gold pass when they first sell them for $99 and we buy all season fast lane and we're good for the season. With that being said I do love your Channel even though I disagree with you on this one LOL

[@notyournormalg1]

The empty fast lane means that they’re putting fast lane people through first. I did see a lot of people going through quickly. Which is good for those who paid the price for fast lane. And it’s definitely nice for those who have fast lane with prestige pass or all year fast lane. But, they’re not filling every seat as they did with single rider, and they’re proritizing people with fast lane, meaning that there are times when you barely move forward because they filled all the fast lane people in first. It ends up being less efficient unless you pay for it.

[@garypalm831]

@notyournormalg1 you know it's so funny you say that 2024 was the second year that we had all season Fastlane and every time we go they will let 10 people from the regular line go and two Fastlane people. Cedar Point is the absolute worst for Fastlane

[@garypalm831]

@notyournormalg1 I hear what you're saying sometimes I don't think they follow directions I was told by upper management when the lines are full you let the lines go through evenly if there's a lot of people you take half the seats on the train and let the fast lane through and then fill the other half of the train with a standard line. And you don't need to tell me a lot of The Operators just don't get it it's so funny with the friends that get on our case oh it must be nice to have fast lane and these are the people Best Buy a Prestige pass sit at the bar and drink $25 drinks and by all kinds of merchandise in the shops we don't do that that's why I was saying I would rather have our fast lane and do without the other stuff
