Thorpe Park: General Discussion

So I visited on Friday and had a good time but was not the best day, mainly because of over-full fastback queues (was not aware of Shark Cabin guests getting free platinum fastback at the time) and a lot of the kids on inset days.

Arrived at 9:30am, stayed until closing and managed Hyper twice (Once with MAP one shot), Saw, Ghost Train & Swarm. Didn't help that we queued 80 mins for Stealth whilst it broke down twice and ended up leaving the queue without riding. I also bought a one shot for Swarm and waited 45 mins in an advertised 50 min queue but I struggle to believe that it would have only been 50 mins, the queue was crawling.

Hoping to be back on an off-peak day soon!
 
Worth noting its only selected dates shark offer all day fastrack, otherwise its the generic 1 or 2 hours per stay. Unless its changed

You can’t complain about fast track users whilst not only using it yourself but purchasing an annual pass that gives you fast track every visit!

My main complaint is that it can split up groups if some of the party are in the hotel and the others are not due to lack of availability.

It can happen with RAP if the group exceeds 4 or whatever is booked.

I believe the all day fasttrack deal happened last year at one point around closure dates with the idea of guests having the full day, it's the same as that. Only key difference is they've added Hyperia to it. I'm sure Hyperia wasn't part of it before.

The at least one hour FT is whenever the park is open for two days and is on the second day.
