But given Merlin tried to open the parks pretty much until lockdown measures were imposed, I’d suggest that if they can open, they will, and March is a far less popular time than summer, on the whole. Which is why I expect that they are currently preparing for a 4th July reopening, as that’s what the government’s provisional plan dictates.
As for the money side of things; the parks that have opened so far seem to be doing fairly well, so I definitely think there’s generous profit to be had if Alton decides to open up.
