Six Flags to Require Reservations When Reopened
How many times have you sat on your couch while social distancing at home these days and daydreamed about going to Six Flags Great Adventure? Yeah, me too. I envision screaming with delight on the rides and having fun with my friends again. Ahhh, to dream. Whenever Six Flags decides it is finally safe to reopen, you will notice a big change, according to Attractions Magazine.
Six Flags has announced that in order to control the crowds in the parks, guests will have to make an advanced reservation in order to visit. You can't do it yet, as there is no reopen date, but, once the plans are in place to reopen, an online reservation system will be available.
This is going to be the new rule for all guests, from one day visitors to season pass holders to members, in order to ensure there is only the allowed number of guests in the parks at one time. No word on what that magic number will be. Each park will have to follow their own state's social distancing guidelines.
A statement on the company website says "Six Flags Great Adventure is temporarily closed. Following local and regional COVID-19 health directives, we will open as soon as it is safe to do so. While there have been no reported cases of COVID-19 at the properties, the safety of our guests, team members, and animals is always our highest priority. We will continue to closely monitor this evolving situation, and follow the most current guidance from federal, state, and local officials."
