Does anyone know whats going on with the gift shops? I heard some rumours they are placing in digital screens for the prices, for flexi-price gifts (like they are doing to the tickets for low season/high season). Seems a bit odd?

I don't think Congo will go. Huge area, and a capacity eater. Can't see Merlin wanting to redevelop that area in a hurry. They need to make a decision. Get effects working again or give it a retheme to focus more on the themeing than effects. I would say Thorpe Park Rapids are better now. At...

Sooo.... The policy in recent years (at least on some occasions) is to extend park opening if the park is having a particularly busy day. With most people pre-booking, it surely they could try and make some decisions earlier. Could encourage more visitors. Maybe with flexi ticket prices on the...

It's simply about pride these issues like the mould problem, start at the top. Because they have let all the small things get out of control, no one can be bothered to do anything. I won't repeat what I think of the dirty shelter in Galactica extended queue or the state of the Obvillian queue...

As others have echoed, I admire Bianca for doing this. However, I feel for her working with Ferrari World Abu Dhabi; she will now have to work with Merlin. I think her heart is in the right place, but she needs to tow the corporate line to have gotten and keep the job for the foreseeable future...

I agree with others' posts on here while having SW9 would be amazing, there are more prominent matters that need addressing. We have ageing coasters that are becoming increasingly unreliable. The smiler looks like a 'state' but at the same time, we get a 'smiler takeover' event which looks...

Was in the park today. The smiler takeover was very odd. You can tell they decided at some point to budget-cut the original event. Probably had smiler props laying around the back. There was YMCA on the bigger stage in X Sector and some Marmalising scripted show on the smaller one. The audio...

The problem is with the mid-ways like Sealife, how many general admissions to merlin pass entries do they get? How would they work the merlin pass owners, as people won't be happy if they're not extending the passes and you only get mid-ways like Sealife? I am really starting to think will it...

Its all speculation but I'm pretty 50/50 on whether the parks will reopen. I think Merlin will want to try and open, even if the break-even. They will want to stop putting free months on merlin passes ASP. I was thinking they could try and maybe open towers as its outside London, to test the...

Just a thought I can't understand why Merlin will not do anything with the theatre building in Cloud Cuckoo Land. We all know Merlin only open something when they can make money. Why can't they turn it into a PortAventura style bar with performances, but you have to buy something to watch the...

Theres quite a lot of interesting debate on here regarding Merlin's way of operating parks. As we all know they seem to go for cheap entry and upcharge on anything they can. This strategy is great for Thorpe Park (especially), Chessington, Legoland. The problem is towers is very different it's...

Went on Galactica for the first time a few days ago. I wouldn't say it was absolutely the most ground-breaking experience I have ever had but it makes the ride experience better - I was overhearing conversations on the ride, many people kept moaning they preferred the ride without the goggles...

AT really need to sort out those lockers. Absolute nightmare on the last day at park coming out of hotel which tons of luggage as ones near Rita were not working, X-sector not working and the ones near Air - which never work every-time I have been here. Only the ones near the front were working...
