Depends how the water dummies are set out.

That's interesting, I thought it'd be every other row. Are they still loading guests every other row?
Would of thought back 3 three for water dummies only is probably weight and less risk of guest injury if they became damaged.

Possibly also gives them a bit more flexibility in how they batch different size groups.
Can I please point out to everyone that the estimated queue times are well off. My mate went today and got on 8 rides. I'll say the stated queue and the actual queue he waited.
Smiler- 120 but actually 80
Wicker man- 120 but actually 90
Nemesis- 60 but actually 45
Galactica- 90 but actually 60
Oblivion- 80 but actually 50
Th13teen- 100 but actually 85
Rita- 75 but actually 60
Spinball- 55 but actually 40

This is why i asked as to whether it was in by Rita, out by Thirteen. When we cant be bothered with Rita, we always take the path by the kiosk to get to Thirteen without having to walk past Rita.

Must of been busting for a wee?
I’m guessing he ate in the queue line because those queue times are still ridiculous.

Haha ... that was never going to get past @rob666
It's always difficult to be absolutely on the money when it comes to queue times, they are estimated at the end of the day and there are lots of different variables. More so at the moment, because the composition of the queue is so important as group sizes have a greater weighting on capacity, due to social distancing.

Skyride officially isn't a ride(according to Alton...,) and has before now permitted singles, keep in mind it's technically public transport so masks are required.

How is it public transport, in any way, shape or form?
