Okay so after visiting Carowinds, Kings Island, and Cedar Point in the last 9 months, man does KD need an update for these. Kings Island and Cedar Point had nice modern looking gates with self-scanners for passes and it made getting in and out so easy. Granted I don't think KD is difficult to deal with getting in and out at all but honestly man they need to update the gates. Even if they keep them 2 separate smaller gates like they have now, they give off the perception you're arriving at like an old-school drive in compared to those other gates and the BGW gate.
One has to wonder if the park is considering renovating all of this and the entrance gate down the road as they expand. I hope they put a nice hotel where the old one was like a Spring Hill Suites like at Carowinds. I do think KDs entrance gate itself looks much nicer than the entrance gate to Kings Island. They should definitely consider the nice looking security booths all three of those parks have outside so that the main gate isn't such a clusterf*ck when you arrive sometimes. I don't know just a random park infrastructure comment I've noticed especially after visiting some other Cedar Fair parks and figured I'd open it for discussion.
