Summer Staycation
Six Flags doesn't give out forecasts on attendance, because too many unpredictable variables (like weather) come into play. But Speed said he suspects "we're going to see more families and more higher-disposable-income families this summer." For the definitive answer, investors will have to wait until this fall, when Six Flags reports its earnings for the summer. In the meantime, the curious can do informal checks on other potential indicators of a higher-end family presence at what had been a low-end teen paradise, like Priuses in the parking lots or arugula salads at Johnny Rockets.

Comment: I am starting a theme park where we bury your family alive, and the first one to dig themselves out wins a prize.
The theme is resourcefulness. How about it, folks?

Comment: One of the problems with Six Flags is their merchandise. I'm not sure about all the other ones, but the merchandise in Magic Mountain (in CA) does NOT make me want to buy anything. Everytime I go to Disneyland, I want to leave with bags full of stuff, I always leave MM empty-handed. Food is another issue, Disneyland is expensive but the food is generally pretty good, MM - not so much. And why is parking so expensive?? None of these make me want to visit Six Flags any more than Disneyland, which is a quick 30 minute trip up the freeway.

Comment: I for one am tired of theme parks sticking it to visitors charging $4 for a bottle of water. $20 for a cheap breakfast for two. What a joke. I am surprised anyone can afford to go and be ripped off by these tourist traps.
