Sonya Parrent spent $279 on season passes and dining plans for Six Flags St. Louis, planning a family outing at the park she’d visited for years. Instead, her dining passes were rejected once Enchanted Parks took over operations, and months later she still had no refund in hand, according to a class-action lawsuit filed against both companies.
The lawsuit, reported by FOX 2, claims Six Flags promoted and sold 2026 dining plans without disclosing that it planned to transfer park operations. According to audacy.com, the suit accuses Six Flags of selling those 2026 dining plans while it was planning to sell the park, then keeping the money after the deal closed in April.

Consumer attorney Chris Roberts initiated the legal action on behalf of Parrent and potentially thousands of other affected customers. The suit alleges violations of Missouri consumer-protection statutes along with claims of unjust enrichment and breach of contract, and it seeks full reimbursement for unused dining passes plus additional damages for out-of-pocket meal expenses. Stltoday reports the suit accuses Six Flags and Enchanted Parks of unjust enrichment, breach of contract and violations of the Missouri Merchandising Practices Act — a state law that identifies deception, fraud, false pretenses, misrepresentation and the concealment of material facts as unlawful practices in merchandise sales, according to the Missouri Revisor of Statutes.
