June 26, 201412 yr You are right. It is more like 20% it was a late night around mrning haha I think the FL or FL+ really depends on wha your schedule looks like. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
June 27, 201412 yr FOF, Viking Fury, and Shake Rattle & Roll. All of which have been closed for nearly a week.
June 27, 201412 yr I'm hoping that Shake Rattle & Roll as well as Flight of Fear is open for the Coaster Crew event. I miss me some SR&R.
June 27, 201412 yr That actually looks like it's in better shape than it was earlier this month, hopefully it's back up and running soon as well, it's one of my favorite flats at Kings Island.
June 27, 201412 yr Author I'm just worried about a lot of rides being closed Monday. I've seen reviews saying many attractions were closed while they were there. We have never been and won't be able to go again this summer, and are hoping most rides are up and running Monday.
June 27, 201412 yr ^ Most rides operate every day, though there can be occasional downtime. If something is closed that isn't listed on the sign out front, make sure to check back later. Flight of Fear (launched indoor coaster), Viking Fury (swinging ship), and Shake, Rattle & Roll (Troika) have been closed for several days. Some or all of those could still be closed Monday.
June 27, 201412 yr I wouldn't stress out about it too much. FOF is fun and if you miss it, it will be a shame, but there is still plenty to keep you occupied. I'm not a huge fans of flats, mainly because I can't take too much spinning, but Viking Fury is easily my favorite, however with that said riding it will neither make nor break your day. I've never been on Shake, Rattle and Roll, but a similar tale I am assuming. If you like flats that spin around, there is a solid selection outside of Shake, Rattle & Roll. Most rides are operational during the season, and while no one can garuntee what Monday will look like, there is no reason to assume that a large number of additional rides will be closed, and perhaps 1 or 2 of those 3 will be open by then as well. KI is a big park, with lots to do, you won't find yourself bored by any means b/c those 3 rides are not operational that day. Take your time, and have FUN.
June 27, 201412 yr Shake Rattle and Roll has been down longer than a week. It was closed on June 8th when I was at Coasting for Kids.
June 27, 201412 yr Shake, Rattle & Roll has been closed for at least 2-3 weeks. Perhaps they are waiting on parts?
June 28, 201412 yr Kings Island has had quite a few difficulties with rides this year. (FOF, DT, VF, SR&R KI&MVRR, White Water Canyon I remember had a few minor difficulties when I visited the park about 3 weeks ago, also Backlot Stunt Coasters fire hasn't been working either.)
June 29, 201412 yr Viking Fury reopened today. Shake, Rattle, & Roll as well as Flight of Fear still have no official ETA.
June 29, 201412 yr Author I'll tell you on Monday if it has re-opened yet via smoke topic. Are you going Monday? I'm going Monday for the first time.
June 29, 201412 yr It should be noted that: -BB1 RARELY meets up with fellow KIC members -BB1 does not like to repeat himself.
June 29, 201412 yr I'll tell you on Monday if it has re-opened yet via smoke topic.Are you going Monday? I'm going Monday for the first time.With how excited you are, we'd better see a trip report from you.
June 29, 201412 yr Author It should be noted that: -BB1 RARELY meets up with fellow KIC members -BB1 does not like to repeat himself. Ok I wasn't planning on meeting up with anyone.
June 30, 201412 yr Perhaps because someone who has posted here does on occasion? Terp, who sometimes likes to answer questions.
June 30, 201412 yr Why does BB1 like to refer to himself/herself in third person?Because he, I, want to, and because I can.
