No. Diamondback is not even remotely rough.

I've found no reason you need a phone. Also, there's really no reason to complete the health survey on the app.

I doubt it. This weekend all reservations slots were taken. It was probably as busy as it will be for awhile. There are thousands of reservation slots remaining for every day that is on the reservation calendar. Probably a day to day decision.

They shut Orion line down early. Cane over at 9:20 and got shut down due to fireworks.

Probably hide in our homes because the news will fire up the death scoreboards and continue peddling the fear And wait til people realize the flu kills way more kids than covid ever did. It will make all school decisions look asinine when looking back at covid.

Did they make a deal with Covid so they could have a week to get ready?

Got 6 or 7 rides today. Good coaster. First drop was great. Speed hill and airtime hill are good. Probably not in my top 10 or 20. It looks awesome though. Seeing the turnaround and first hill from other coasters is nice. Row 2 on first ride of the day had that rattle sound a lot. Didn't notice it so much later in the day. Looking forward to a few night rides tomorrow. By no means is it a bad ride. I just don't think it's necessarily a destination coaster like SteVe, Fury, Voyage, El Toro and some others. Great for the park. People will like it and you can cycle a ton of people quickly. And it's B&M so should always be running.

Park really thinned out around 330-4. They opened up Orion to everyone around 6 and it was a pretty short line for folks still there.

You are correct about Fast Lane. From what I heard they do want to sell them (obviously) at some point this season if possible. Prob when they can increase capacity. Right now, Fast Lane makes Orion pretty much a walk on.

Fast Lane pretty much a walk on. I just requested front row about 2 min ago and they had no problem letting me wait. Prob depends on the employee.

All Orion passes are gone today.

Odds are they won't.

Doing tickets for Orion today.

Orion line is past Backlot now.

I'm guessing the reservations are much more about people thinking they can't get in. Haven't heard of them being enforced anywhere (Six Flags, Dollywood, etc). Probably staggers the line well enough since enough people think they can't enter earlier.

There is also a daily option. $30-35 gets you the same meal as the dining plan every 90 minutes during the day. We sometimes do that and share or alternate between 2 of us. If you are only going 5 or 6 times, the daily might be better for you.

I know. And this could screw people hoping to get in line late on July 4th for a night ride.

Also makes me think they may close that line fairly early each day.

Every other park operating now days.

Odds are they won't.

You can reserve a 2nd day now.

So you think they made this announcement even though no one can actually book a second day on Monday? No way.

Yes. The tweet/post/whatever is in the News thread.

BTW, you can get a second reservation starting Monday.
