    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    Ye for most visitors free return visit doesn’t seem that beneficial. Personally free fastrack for whenever you next visit would be a great offer instead

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    Where have you heard this said rumour. Would that not be put on the attraction availability page if it was planned to close before the end of the season. Anyway I’ve seen that Smiler is yet to open and that closed early yesterday. Anyone on park today know what the ops are like for the open...

    Alton Towers, Pass Holders Or Frequent Visitors?

    About 45 mins away so used to go 2 or 3 times every week. Working full time now I’ve finished Uni so I won’t be going more than once a year now unfortunately. I could go at weekends but there’s no point with the queues

    Alton Towers, Pass Holders Or Frequent Visitors?

    My pass ran out 16th August and from March to August I managed 36 trips so I’m the same as you

    Ye but the point still stands that people are giving small updates for the sake of it to find a reason to dig at the park. Is the rapids opening later even news worth thinking about?

    You new to Towers street?😅 it’s always been like this. Jokes aside I do agree the constant negativity is a bit annoying

    I don’t mind it tbh. Williams world is dead before 11 anyway and Rapids don’t even need to be open this time of year

    You see this makes no sense to me because 10 years ago we didn’t have wicker man which is a decent capacity coaster so how did the park cope better back then. I can’t recall the lineup being much different except for some flat rides

    How did they ever reach 30k? The car park is full at 16-17k these days so where did all those extra cars go

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    That’s an interesting point what height do you think it would be a high risk of someone falling out. On the Otsr 1.4m rides are people likely to fall out at 1.35m?

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    Off course but it is silly because if you try and get your child on a ride when they’re below the height they could literally fall out

    1) If they’re willing to risk their childs safety then they shouldn’t be a parent 2) Children being stupid shocks nobody 3) Shows how incapable the general public must be

    Could the parents not just measure them at the entrance

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    Why do any of the rides need entrance hosts anyway. There are signs that indicate where everyone should go for the different queue lines

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    Interesting to see Smilers queue so low

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    I think more importantly you guys should stop using 1 or 2 ride closures as an excuse to claim the availability is bad. If multiple rides are closed at the same time then it becomes an issue but most the time it’s not been that bad this season

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    It’s not my opinion. They’re the most popular 3 rides in the lineup. If you somehow think otherwise then you must be blind

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-25

    Not too much of an issue if Oblivion goes down. As long as they keep the core coasters (Nemesis, Smiler, Wicker man) open they should be fine

    Thorpe Park: General Discussion

    The land is big enough to accommodate a family thrill ride like Wicker man. I think a woodie would add some great variety to the lineup

    Spinball Whizzer: General Discussion

    That’s why I said Maurer spinners not Alton towers. I’m sure there are manufacturers that have these issues but it shouldn’t be the case because rides from the likes of Intamin and B&M cope just fine.
