    2023: The Curse at Alton Manor

    Went on yesterday and it was pretty badly out of time - lots of blackness with nothing happening. Went on multiple times last year and it was bang on so hopefully just got unlucky.

    I don’t think you can say £120 is ‘madness’ when a bolt is £100….

    We paid £6 to park only to follow the exist signs from car park F and end up at the hotel exit… with no barriers. Is that normal?

    4 rides in the first hour - air, nem twice. Thirteen was a walk on oddly then within 5 mins hit 50 mins. Now queuing for Rita. It’s got to be the worst most boring queue line

    Seems pretty quiet at the entrance. Managed to be first at admissions with no trouble. Currently stood at galactica … for 40 mins so I don’t have to queue for it once it’s open.. for 40 mins I had a note by the way, don’t take it as they’re allowing walk ups because I don’t know.

    Cheers to both... will aim to be first in line at around 8:30?! Might go horribly wrong but at least I should now get in!

    Sorry if I'm being thick but I can't remember the layout... I don't need the turnstiles first - I need Admissions. Not even sure where it's located?

    That's what I was worried about. That said, I will get there as early as is sensible - I assume there will be a queue at admissions at 9am. Any ideas on a decent time to arrive (at the entrance, not the car park). We can do early!

    Well amazingly I eventually managed to speak to a human at Alton Towers. I was honest about the screw up etc, and explained I was just interested in whether I would be allow in at all - even at full price. He checked and agreed that the barcode is odd but is just a reservation and wouldn't get...

    Quick Questions

    Thanks both, I'm honestly not sure. The wording on the website is (eventually) pretty clear cut - £34 advance is valid, all others are not. Then it clearly states (in bold text no less) YOU WILL NOT BE GIVEN A BARCODE... blah blah. However, the email is the same as the original email, with a...

    Any advice welcome... We used the 2 for 1 codes earlier in the month, and the day is now listed on the rainy day page. Not reading the terms (oops), I booked us in for tomorrow. It says you won't be given barcodes, but oddly we have. I assume they're not activated or something. To be clear...

    Queue line annoyances

    I've been fairly lucky considering what you guys have posted. Smoking seems quite regular though - and annoying when you're downstream.

    Trip Report: 20/07/12 (Final day before schools finish)

    Trip Report Pre-Background: I posted this on 'the other place' before I found out what happened. I was a long-time lurker there, but hadn't seen the stuff going off. This place seems more active, so I'm moving to lurk here instead! Background: Went with girlfriend, and the only day we both...
