SANDUSKY, Ohio — Cedar Fair announced Tuesday morning that Cedar Point and Six Flags will merge on July 1. The combined company will be in Charlotte, North Carolina, maintaining significant finance and administrative options in Sandusky, Ohio.
News 5 Maya Lockett reached out to Cedar Point for a comment on how this merger will impact consumers and employers. An official from Cedar Point said they do not have any additional information until the merger is completed. "I want to know whether we would still have the same affordable passes with the dining pleasures that they offer now or if those will increase with the merge. As well as, will we be able to visit other Six Flags properties with our passes?" said Nesbit.
"What might happen is if these two companies become more efficient, they can reduce prices, and they can offer more rides," said Chatterjee."Everyone knew that Continental at that time was a better, more well-run company, but because United is more well-known, they took the name of United, and that has worked. So, that would be similar to what you're seeing here," said Chatterjee.
