Six Flags Reinstates Chaperone Policy for Youths

Six Flags has reinstated a chaperone policy for guests aged 15 and younger, requiring them to be accompanied by someone at least 21 years old after 4 p.m. The policy, aimed at curbing incidents of unruly behavior, applies to both Fiesta Texas and Over Texas parks. It mandates one chaperone for up to ten minors and requires valid ID for entry. Additionally, the parks have transitioned to cashless transactions, offering kiosks to convert cash to prepaid cards. Community reactions have been mixed, with some supporting the move for safety and others criticizing it for limiting youth independence. The policy is part of Six Flags' broader efforts to maintain a safe and enjoyable environment for all visitors.
