SIX - Six Flags Rolls Out a Reservation Waitlist System to Promote Social Distancing
Theme park companies are taking extra measures to promote social distancing once their parks reopen. Six Flags (NYSE: SIX) announced on Wednesday that all its guests will need to check in through a reservation system that limits park entries by date and time. The move is aimed at minimizing the chance of viral outbreaks in a system built to entertain large numbers of guests. Peers like Cedar Fair (NYSE: FUN) have announced similar adjustments to the ticketing and park experiences.
"We are excited about reopening our parks and getting back to the business of fun," CEO Mike Spanos said in a press release. "However," he continued, "we want to do so in the safest possible manner."
