Initiative is the Latest Element in Company's Commitment to Make
Parks Family-Friendly NEW YORK, Jan. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
Six Flags (NYSE:PKS) announced today a new company policy under
which its theme parks across the country will become smoke-free
environments. This measure is the newest element in the company's
commitment to improving the family entertainment experience
throughout the Six Flags system. "Our mission at Six Flags this
season is to enhance our entire guest experience -- and that
includes doing all we can to ensure our parks are family-friendly,"
said Mark Shapiro, Six Flags President and CEO. "Making our parks
smoke-free will be an enhancement to the quality of the Six Flags
experience, and our guests will think so too -- nobody should be
forced to dodge clouds of smoke when they're strolling through the
park with their children. Designating specific smoking zones will
allow for a cleaner, friendlier park atmosphere where families can
enjoy spending their day." This initiative expands on current park
policy, which states that guests cannot smoke in children's areas,
ride lines or waterparks. Designated smoking zones will be
set-aside within each park to accommodate the parks' smoking
patrons. Six Flags is the world's largest regional theme park
company. FCMN Contact: devans@sftp.com DATASOURCE: Six Flags, Inc.
