SEAS parks are also open year round - while this is a gross oversimplification you essentially get two seasonal parks worth of revenue out of one park. (Orlando, Tampa, & San Diego especially.)

The park just filed permits for modifications to the ride's indoor mountain building. This comes alongside new track that has been seen heading to the park.

I don't really know what else was expected purchasing an S&S coaster like this.

One train pulling into the final brakes, one train departing the station, one train entering the station

If a giga (or any large out and back coaster) were on the table, the station could go near Wild Arctic with a layout extending over the car park/toll booths/undeveloped land inbetween the toll booths and Central Florida Parkway.

I have no evidence whatsoever for this - just me thinking like SEAS, but I could see a world in which both SWO and BGT get gigas. One more traditional B&M giga style, and one more unconventional LSM launch giga from Intamin.

Indeed, 2025 seems to be the year for a new resort hotel opening, very likely in Orlando too. It will likely take over the employee parking lot behind Infinity Falls/Mako. I can very easily see new hotels in Tampa and San Diego following quickly.

This is not accurate. Operating costs have risen moderately, revenue increases have outpaced this. The parks are more profitable as a result.

There's two sides to this I guess 1) Yes, investment expenditure has gone up. But....... 2) The parks are significantly more profitable than they were 5 years ago, revenues are through the roof. You have also seen (with a few exceptions) SEAS rely predominantly on B&M and Intamin over recent...

There was (fairly legit, but not confirmed of course) talk of SEAS having a 5 coaster deal with B&M. Presuming Emperor was the first installment, followed by Pipeline and Project Toboggan, we may still have two B&Ms left to place somewhere in the chain, while it may not be the likeliest outcome...

I'm hearing that 2024 will not be the end of SeaWorld Orlando's coaster streak, and that there is a coaster project slated for 2025 that will revitalize the Wild Arctic area. I'm also hearing that it may be quite large, allowing it to capture attention when opening during the same timeframe as...

Sand Serpent is now permanently closed, along with the Bush Flyers, Kiddie Train, and Bikes rides next door. Construction walls have already been placed around the entire right side of Pantopia.

I rode Pipeline recently and thought I'd post a few thoughts here. Overall, I have mostly positive things to say but have a couple of negatives/room for improvement. Clearly I had not experienced a ride like Pipeline before, and didn't know what to expect, but if I could describe the ride I...

The plans show the station positioned in the old dark ride finale, so we are potentially looking at a load/unload area that overlooks the penguin habitat which would be very unique and a nice touch.

Two new B&M prototypes in 2 years, making five B&M coasters at SeaWorld Orlando? From: https://twitter.com/ParkFansNetwork/status/1674509407227375630?t=uYiVOB5dHdiM2rQDD3MP0g&s=19

It is my understanding that Abu Dhabi has seen more success than Dubai. After all, Miral had years of attendance data from Ferrari World and Yas Waterworld before green lighting the SeaWorld project.

This feels unreal to say but SeaWorld Abu Dhabi opens tomorrow. The park features 8 themed areas, or realms as they are calling them, with an all-indoor hub and spoke design. One Ocean acts as the park's central hub from which all other realms can be accessed. The area features no rides...
