    Cedar Point: General Discussion

    Not surprising when we were there they were trying to get people to leave everything behind in lockers unless they were wearing cargo style shorts with zipped pockets. Quite a few hats seemed to manage to come out of pockets and one ride the guy in front of me managed to loose the sunglasses...

    USA Road Trip 2018

    Stopped off at Waldameer last Saturday evening on the way to Cedar Point. Good weather and Saturday evening meant it was crazily busy with both main car parks and the overflows almost at capacity. Decided to chance it anyway for Ravine Flyer 2 and got lucky as it was mainly young families so the...

    Drayton Manor Park

    It's a park of two parts Thomasland and the rest. Twenty years ago Towers and Drayton competed more directly both investing in a similar area of the market however since then they have moved in slightly different directions Towers with a more thrill rollercoaster bias and Drayton more towards...

    Scarefest 2017

    Yup,others on here seem to have had completely different experiences to us on the same mazes. Contains some spoilers. Visited both days over the weekend. Welcoming - Brilliantly themed with a relatively simple to follow story line and shows what Towers/Merlin can achieve. The free flow walk...

    Trip Planning 2023/24: Information, advice and questions!

    Just back from 3 days at EP and the way to buy 3day tickets of you are staying off site has changed slightly. Not sure if it's been mentioned earlier in the thread, couldn't see anything. You can no longer buy a 3day ticket from the manned kiosks. Instead you have to buy a two day ticket then...

    We went to Florida/Orlando in September last year and had a fantastic time. Mid to end of September is a great time to go as its relatively quiet for Orlando. We had 11 days in Orlando to visit all the parks, Inc a visit to the Halloween events at Universal, Magic Kingdom and Busch Gardens but...

    Ride Availability 2017

    It would appear so, it never opened today. Not sure if it was due to the VR or the coaster itself but am starting to wonder if all the issues are VR related whether it will be quietly removed when SW8 opens.

    2017: General Discussion

    Little bit of both. It was reasonably busy when we were there this morning and when rides were open queues were moving but ride reliability seems to be a big problem at the minute. Galatica never opened, Hex opened over an hour late. Smiler went down for a while everyone was forced out of the...

    Phantasialand: General Discussion

    Wow, just saw the advertisement looks really interesting. Missed out on Taron last year, so add in this as well and think I definitely need to try and revisit the place next year!!

    SeaWorld Orlando: General Discussion

    Given its a virtual queue I don't think it's as simple as saying it's attracting massive queues therefore it is more popular than other recent additions (couldn't say for sure though). Given the VR addition and as mentioned above its highly likely that the throughput of the ride has been...
