But yet according to the website they are NOT at capacity and are still taking resveration.
Cars are still pulling in. I waited just under an hour for Apollo for the first time in a very long time and could clearly see cars still pulling in. Only place to get an actual meal is Festhaus and the whole extended queue for that is overflowing as well.
I’m genuinely thinking about no longer extending my membership if this is how the park handles things now. I get it, the park is busy, but a park shouldn’t be run like this with this many people in the park. I thought some peoples comments on the site were a bit harsh but after witnessing it all first hand I 100% agree with the negativity. I feel bad for saying it too, but this just isn’t a good time. This sucks. Lots of angry people here :/

They are allowing people to stay for the evening session but are shutting down all coasters, food, and beverage service in-between.
I always said it would be fun to go and just walk around even if nothing was really open, and then I did. It wasn't actually very fun at all.
Despite my immaturity, unfortunately I am an adult. Minus Grover's, not much is gonna make it worth it to me.
For anyone who is curious, it's a busy day out here today. This Friday looks like the busiest of Saturdays of a month ago to me.
Thankfully, with operations actually truly scaling up now, the park seems to be managing the crowds well enough.

The only parking right now ( except VIP) is Italy. The trams are running. Guest relations says preferred is supposed to return soon.
Only 4 coasters were listed as open today on the website. Quite a few attractions were supposed to be down as well. Am happy to report that all coasters are open as well as almost all attractions. Finnegan's is the only exception but we were aware of that ahead of time. Other than it being insanely humid, it’s a great day to be at the park!
I am just getting through the parking gate now. They are comping parking and the trams aren’t running. People are walking the tram bridge across the entrance road.
I assume they are comping parking because either they are just reinforcing to get people in quicker and/or the trams aren’t running.
The roads are jam packed- interstate east and west and rt60!

We just turned around and came back to Richmond. The amount of cars trying to get in did not look like a fun time in the park. Overflow parking was getting scouted out by cops.
So today is our first time back (it's a long drive for us so, previously, it just wasn't worth the drive).
Amazing weather
Park is jammed pack full of people. Those who are concerned with social distancing would not be happy (we're fine and having a blast).
Premier membership gave us preferred parking in England.
Huge lines for all rides.
Invadr shut down for a bit so they can put the 2nd train.

This is the longest line for the turnstiles that I've ever seen.
