Mother Sues Six Flags Over Rejected Dining Plans

Live Poll

After a business changes owners, do you trust it to honor prepaid plans you bought?

Sonya Parrent of Caseyville, Illinois, says the park rejected her $279 in dining plan vouchers after Enchanted Parks took over park operations in April. Attorney Chris Roberts has filed a class-action suit on behalf of Parrent and potentially thousands of other customers.

Why it matters

The lawsuit alleges that 2026 dining plans were sold without notice of the change in park operators, raising questions for St. Louis-area guests who hold prepaid dining plans. Six Flags says most eligible refunds have been processed, but the dispute highlights how prepaid vouchers can be affected by ownership changes.

Parrent bought $279 in dining plans for the 2026 season, and her vouchers were rejected after the park changed hands. The total number of customers affected by the alleged sales practices has not been disclosed.

The players

Six Flags

Six Flags is a large regional amusement park operator that sold the 2026 dining plans and says it is reissuing the refund.

Enchanted Parks

Enchanted Parks is the company that took over park operations in April and is named as a defendant in the class-action lawsuit.

Chris Roberts

Chris Roberts is the attorney who filed the class-action lawsuit on behalf of Parrent and other customers.

The details

Parrent has been seeking a refund for months, and Six Flags says it learned last week that her September refund did not go through, so it is reissuing it. The lawsuit alleges violations of Missouri consumer-protection statutes, unjust enrichment, and breach of contract, and asks for full reimbursement of unused dining passes plus damages for out-of-pocket meal costs.

Timeline

  1. September 2026: Six Flags believed Parrent's refund had been processed.

  2. April 2026: Enchanted Parks assumed control of park operations.

  3. Last week: Six Flags learned the refund had not gone through.

Legal Context

The suit relies on Missouri consumer-protection statutes, unjust enrichment, and breach of contract, which are the main legal tools available to customers holding prepaid vouchers. Its outcome could clarify how those tools apply when a seasonal attraction changes operators mid-season.

Guests holding unused Six Flags St. Louis dining plans may need to contact the park directly to request a refund. Anyone with prepaid vouchers can check whether their balance has been honored after the change in operators.

The takeaway

Keep records of prepaid vouchers and confirm refunds in writing when a business changes ownership. Contact the park directly if a refund you were promised has not appeared.
