I think it will open as soon as restrictions start to be reduced further. I know that's not a very specific answer, but I think the ride will be ready to open in March and will subsequently open whenever restrictions are lessened beyond what they are now

Right now they plan to have full operations in March for the St. Patrick’s Day Celebration

Yes, they plan to have the entire park open. You'll notice I said lessened restrictions. Having the entire park open isn't the same thing. They could have had the entire park open this entire time, but the park has chosen to do only a portion and since the most recent guideline update, they have capped their attendance at a lower level than it would be if they opened the whole park.

Yeah, they can’t have 50% of their maximum occupancy or around 12,000 guests. That’s based on the 24,000 number that Kevin gave the JCC BOS.

I think you'll find that number to actually be less than actual capacity. They most likely didn't take Globe and a Royal palace into account since they aren't typically open.

But they can also only have 50% of what they have open. So they could increase capacity to somewhere in the 10-12k range just by opening the entire park, but I think it's lonely Pantheon waits until restrictions are lessened and BGW can operate more normally than they currently can.

What does that mean, exactly? I say this not to challenge you, but rather to point out that I don’t foresee any of the existing guidelines being removed before the fall at the earliest. Are you referring to additional capacity?

Yes. At the very least look for the park to be able to use indoor theaters to increase their overall capacity. I don't think the park will wait for all restrictions to be removed. Just have them be less strict than they currently are.

I'm not saying this is what will happen. I'm just thinking that the park will wait until they can operate closer to normal than they could under the current guidelines. I could be and do hope I'm wrong. The current guidelines do allow them to be open with a theoretical capacity of around 10,000 (my best guess). They could decide that's good enough and they want to open it. My hunch is that they will decide to wait though.

On this note, I thank if it's ready by march and the restrictions are still in place they will open the the ride for platinum members only until the restrictions are lifted or are Lessened.
 
I mean, the park can do whatever it wants - outside of the enthusiast community, I'm guessing the main reason for visiting the park isn't just the new ride.

Additionally, they could go with that kind of strategy in trying to get membership upgrades or legacy pass conversions.

they wouldn’t do that, the general public would complain too much

Honestly probably more like the rest of the members will complain if they only open it to Platinum. That would be fun, but I think they will likely just wait.

If they are having a tough time selling tickets and the ride is ready to go, it will open. Only if attendance is at or near the cap would it make sense to keep the ride on standby.

Platinum was supposed to get first rides on Pantheon “with exclusive access.”

I don't recall it being only Platinum and can't seem to sind that in searching for it do you happen to remember where it was stated?
