Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

Shockingly bad operations on Nemesis right now. Galactica is going around as, if not more, frequently despite still being on 2 trains.

The trains seemed rolling yesterday dispatching quickly, despite a slight delay due to having reshuffle where we were sat
 
Was very pleasantly surprised with ops today on park! Yes it was a lot quieter than expected but biggest queue for anything was about 45 mins long. Most things on average about 20 mins. The Smiler ops were incredible- batch and dispatch very quick. Only thing letting down Blivvy ops was that the batcher couldn’t keep with the dispatchs - would probably be best two have two people on queue line management in the station when it’s running two stations. A lot of guest faffing on multiple rides delaying dispatch but can’t blame staff there!

Very surprised to see it so good after the shambles that was opening day.
 
I have to say, availability and queues are looking pretty good at the moment given it’s the Easter holidays! Only 1.5 hours in, all rides are open bar Congo, and only Galactica is on a queue above 60 minutes!

It’s promising to see that availability seems to be on the up!

It doesn’t generate headlines (because it quite rightly should be expected), but consistent ride availability and ops will go a long way to restoring AT’s reputation. They’ve bounced back really well from the shambolic opening weekend.

Agreed, looking at reviews on Trip Advisor they are night and day compared to the start of the season.

Yeah it should be the normal however the past few years it's refreshing to see
 
I said on the night of the first day of the season that it might just have been the opening day glitches and they should least be given a chance (disregarding previous seasons). Hope it stays this way
 
To a degree yes, but I haven’t seen this level of consistently good operations for several years.

Maybe those closed days after the opening weekends did the park wonders!

Then deteriorates over the course of the season, climaxing at the annual ScareFest debacle and promises of “not renewing my MAP/hitting Merlin in their pockets” before the cycle begins again.

this is common for most park (appart from the 365 opperators) where the rides open, and they are quire unreliable before getting into the grove then quite reliable untill the end of the season when problems start to pop up

Is it? Doesn’t seem to be the case in Germany but don’t follow many other non 365 European parks. Certainly isn’t the case at Paultons in the UK. Anyone would think people have come to accept it as the norm…

Walibi Parks have rides delayed on opening so it's not just the UK Parks
