July 11, 20197 yr Half way through the summer season and still no pass perks - why even have a program if some are not getting any of their season pass perks?
July 11, 20197 yr I'm just gonna assume pass perks is an elaborate troll job and it never actually existed.
July 11, 20197 yr I haven`t seen anything either. My dad who has a pass and has gone twice this year, has received one offer.
July 11, 20197 yr I received my second one the other day. It is a BOGO for Cotton Candy at Coney Treats. I actually might take them up on that offer.
July 20, 20197 yr I finally got one - 10% off food. I visit 1-2 times a week minimum and this is my first one. Doesn't seem that great of a program imo. It would be nice if the rewards were pridictable like visit 10x for BOGO popcorn visit 50x for free Fast Lane visit 100x for $15 free merchandise etc
July 30, 20197 yr Wife got a 15% off one food/drink purchase. Seemed like a waste, but ended up going this weekend and splurged for some Auntie Anne's pretzels. They wouldn't accept the 15% off there. What a shame. Probably only valid at KI owned vendors.
July 30, 20197 yr I got my 2nd last week just days after visiting Carowinds. Fast Lane Plus for $50. I have season Fast Lane. My first perk was for regular fastlane and it was after I had visited Cedar Point. Still no perks for actually visiting my home park Kings Island or any perks I can use.
August 20, 20196 yr Hubs was the lucky one finally and got 25% off a funnel cake LoL they seem very random and seldom. I know my luck I'll probably end up with a BOGO slingshot it something I don't ride LOLOL
August 20, 20196 yr Just got the $4 Carmel corn. This perk needs some serious tweaking or they just need to get rid of it.
August 20, 20196 yr ONE thing. THE only thing six flags does better is the rewards program. Cedar Fair Struggling, I spend minimum $500 dollars on the chain a year. Thanks for the $1.50 off of my 5 dollar cotton candy. Kinda irks me and when they didnt have these perks I didnt even think about it. Id rather have none then what they are giving us now it seems very cheap. But then again.... maybe the GP loves it idk
August 20, 20196 yr The park advertises “Pass Perks” as a season pass benefit. I too just got the $4 Carmel Corn and find that insulting, especially since the park is no longer open weekdays. Whomever the park hired to be in charge of this “perk” program just re-invented the previous reward program without any research, thinking, or special programming in the system. The program could be really great, but in it’s current very sad state could not agree more to get rid of it.

The program could be really great, but in it’s current very sad state could not agree more to get rid of it. I think the previous reward program FUNperks was better than this one in terms of rewards, but it was based solely on how much you spent in the park and not visits alone. This current version is basically what was available in the app for those that used it while in the park - at least those you actually got if you opened the app while in the park. This current one has provided rewards to people that haven't visited the park and provided nothing to those over 40 visits, offering deals on meals to those with meal plans, etc. As someone pointed out above, better to have no reward program than this one that just comes off cheap. I guess if they keep Beta testing, eventually something good will come out of it.
August 20, 20196 yr I have 14 visits and have gotten 2 pass perks: BOGO popcorn, and today I got the $4 caramel corn. The popcorn was a nice perk as I was able to give a friend a free popcorn. Interestingly, the worker had not heard of Pass Perks and said she had no way to redeem it, but gave me a free popcorn anyway. The caramel corn won't be used as I will not be back to the park before the expiration date.
August 20, 20196 yr My sister and I both got pass perks today. I got a bring a friend for $14.99 and my sister got a front of line pass. This is my 3rd pass perk. 1st for my sister. I have visited KI 3 times this year and my sister once. We both went to Carowinds back in May (I have a Platinum pass). I feel bad for all the people who go a lot more than me and are not getting pass perks.
August 20, 20196 yr We've been to KI 7 times throughout the summer with our passes, and no Pass Perks. I did get a nice reminder that our payment is coming due. SUPER! Thanks KI!
August 20, 20196 yr There must have been a push today to get people back to the park...today I received a perk offer for an additional 15% off of food. Not too shabby...I would love to get one for an additional merchandise discount instead though. (FYI: I have visited the park 5 times this year.)
August 21, 20196 yr Last month, I received a BOGO for cotton candy, but when I looked at the fine print, I noticed that it could only be used at the stand in Coney Mall. I love cotton candy but I am now diabetic. So I decided to get them for my mom and sister. But naturally, the stand was out. No cotton candy for me! The associate suggested I try to use it at another stand. Trying to be understanding and polite, I simply said, "Oh okay, thanks! Have a good day!" But imagining the small hassle it would be, I shrugged it off and left the park without cotton candy. I could've gone back, but I became busy with an edit and wasn't able to return in time to use it. So far, that is the only perk I've tried to use.
August 21, 20196 yr Husband got this, I have yet to receive any rewards myself, I'm signed up for emails, check mail settings, still receive newsletters, and have used the pass 2x as many days as him this year. Kid has also received nothing.
August 21, 20196 yr 9 visits this year and no perks. Heck I can't even seem to get newsletters anymore even though everything is setup correctly.

Ive visited roughly the same number of times as you and not only have I not seen any of the Pass Perks, Like you, I've stopped getting any form of communication at all, no news letters, or updates (emails when season passes went on sale etc). Everything is set up correctly, I even double checked everything when i renewed for next season. I feel like I've been abandoned! haha I actually even submitted a ticket via the KI website and heard nothing back on that either.
September 17, 20196 yr Just got another pass perk- $9.99 retro logo t-shirt. I don’t know what they are priced at regularly but I might actually use this one.
September 17, 20196 yr I just got the same thing, I actually almost bought one last visit but they didnt have my size so it's a good deal!
September 17, 20196 yr I just got a 19.99 Friday Bring a Friend Ticket and my sister got a front of the line pass. Not too useful for me since we still haven't used up our pass renewal bring a friend credits. I would have loved to get the 9.99 T shirt Perk.
