2019: General Discussion

Great to see Nemesis on a 60 minute queue for most of the day. Hope they extend ride time more than 15 minutes...

Gone down to 40 now.

Presumably all the school groups arrived at Nemesis simultaneously...

Soooo, the Tree Top Quest is back from July 13th according to Alton's Facebook page. Not sure if it's been mentioned but any SBNO attraction that reopens is a plus in my eyes.

Even if it is a additional charge attraction.

At least it was always an upcharge.

Fantastic, thanks for uploading @Ethan! I've been wanting a recording of this music for ages!

Since when has sharkbait had its own uniform instead of red shirts?

The Sealife has always had it own uniform as far as I'm aware. I can't say that I notice for the rest of sharkbait bay though?

Yeah the staff outside the entrance, at the photo point and in the shop all wear the standard red uniform.

It depends if they are Alton standard Staff or Sealife staff. Only the Sealife aqua team will wear blue as they are trained to look after the sea creatures. Staff wearing Red are the standard Alton staff and are not trained to look after the sea creatures. The Sealife team can often be seen standing outside the Sealife, but I presume that the standard staff in Red can also stand outside to cover for the Sealife team.

According to ride times, enterprise will reopen today

 

[GaryH]

Tree top quest was open yesterday (Sunday). Saw people going on it

I believe it will officially re-open on Saturday, so potentially they are soft opening/conducting staff training in preparation.

Enterprise looks like it will reopen today and Rita has been added to ERT to help increase capacity during the school trip period.

Always nice to see improvements coming out of the park.

Treetop Quest isn't listed on the website yet, any idea as to how much it will cost?

 

[AGL]

Too much.
