He's not saying it does, he's saying that Busch were quick to act, and transparent about the issues were that tainted Iron Gwazi (clearance issues on the wave turn), and he wishes that Sea World did the same for Levi. Edit: Good news, they've updated the main website for New Atlantis. Bad news, all they've done is remove the part about Trident being closed for winds, meaning (according to the main page), all 3 rides are open.

That'd definitely be a 'money-can't-buy experience', with all the money they've sunk into it

Dollywood, being a previous comparison in the conversation of opening strategy, due to its notoriously unreliable marquee attraction. It’s the least SW could do (now that news is reporting on it & the story’s becoming widespread).

It's a regular construction site again, really takes me back to the good ol' days

*pretends to be shocked* Seriously, though, it was just a matter of time that news catches on to how badly they've fumbled, and it doesn't even seem like they reported anything incorrectly this time around. One of the interviewee's nailed the situation on the head, it just wasn't ready to be open, but they rushed it and now it's gonna bite them in the bum as much as we expected it would.

Gotta keep it nice & smooth for those corporate Christmas events

Yeah, I understand Trident and Leviathan being closed as they're either not ready to operate, or were rushed to do so, but Vortex by all accounts should be fine to operate. The only 'minor rectification' it needs is making the sign no longer read as 'Vowt?x'.

Ride ops were mentioning to take issues up with Guest Services when it was barely operational on the first few days, but according to various social media posts, they've been largely unhelpful. Which I can attest to, about a different yet somewhat attached scenario I went through.

You asked, verbatim: And I responded with many options of things that they could do. Not want, not need, could. And I made it clear I was specifically mentioning advertising that could be relatively easily held-back, i.e. digital advertising on websites & videos. Don't go making things up, that's what ruined the last thread.

Just like clockwork,

Make a post on their social media accounts, change their main website to correctly display that it isn't open, hold back on their advertising push (by that I mean, the advertisements that they can hold back on, like digital ones) til' it is operational again, offer refunds for families who already travelled to ride, etc.

If it really is just going to become an argument all over again once operations are bought up, forget I said anything. As it stands, this is the topic for New Atlantis feedback, and unless a 2nd topic solely focused on it's operation is made/opened (that I'm not going to do, in case it heads the same way as last), this is the only place it's operations can be discussed. Edit: They're back on the maintenance page, now with images.

I think they just really need to update their website quicker, cause Vortex & Levi still say they're open from Friday (which, if what everything else points to is to be believed, they haven't been for at least 2 days). Which, speaking of, the recent Google Reviews for Sea World also corroborate that they've been closed for those 2 days.

Perhaps one about Operations and Soft Opening Complaints?

From their Facebook, as there's no better source from people there right now

They say that people with a Key get priority access to park events, and that they’ll get to vote on the future projects for the park, which is… something

Seafood allergies are usually split between a shellfish allergy (shrimp, squid, lobster, etc. Molluscs & Crustaceans.) and a general fish allergy. There has been recognized cases of mild-moderate anaphylaxis with seal & whale meat (meaning, Pinnipeds & Cetaceans, the latter being the group including dolphins), but they're more than likely not connected to any general seafood allergy (though, as far as I can tell, it's not explicitly proven). So an allergen probably does exist for dolphin, but it's unlikely to be connected to either of the common 'seafood' allergy subgroups. However, if you have a severe allergic reaction to fish (i.e. one including 'traces of'/coming into contact with fish), obviously that's what a dolphin's diet consists of, so that could possibly cause a reaction. I went way too much into this.

Technically, if this phase chart is to be believed, the 'in-park benefits' are a part of 'Phase 2'. Unless it's different in-park benefits, ofc

If the shown concepts are anything like the final product, I've gotta say Jungle Rush. It looks to be a nice, long, original layout, and seems like it could be as (or even, more) themed than Leviathan is.

I'm young, and I still don't get it. It's just a very out-of-left-field choice, and I can't help but think (or, more accurately, hope) that it won't pan out well & they'll maybe just add some of it's 'benefits' to the One Pass.

I say leave it open & maybe delete the recent back-and-forth, as time will tell what they do in the future/it's operation, but if it's just going to continue to be this circle of us saying the same stuff, then yeah, nah.

Mate, it's a joke. If we're talking about 'personal attacks' now, though, I seem to remember a now-deleted post where a certain someone said that 'common sense' is a rare thing in this thread. Back to the topic at hand: They tried, but some didn't. And, if the operating issues don't fix soon, that number will get exponentially higher. And it could've been much less if they had a later opening w/ a soft-opening period beforehand. Hence, the topic.

From their employer, VRTP.

Not 'travelled for opening day', 'travelled for the holidays after being advertised new rides that are open'. My group bumped into at least 3 of those families, at Sea World Resort alone, after barely using anything the resort had to offer during our stay. And Bikash himself stated that multiple hotels around Sea World have been contacting them, praising them for a huge spike in room bookings that they're attributing to the New Atlantis opening. So that'd have to be 2 pretty damn large families, if so.
