Yeah most are 10-8:30 or 10-6 iircOh wow it's changed since I last looked then
Took long enough. Ik they can't only have 1 in a pinball but surely if you're facing the opposite direction to the group when on the ride you're not really at high risk. I don't get it tbh as when I went on the smiler on my own they put me on the same row as another couple just told me to leave a gapOh yeah spinball now has signage at the entrance saying they cannot accommodate single riders.

That and rapids but rapids isn't quite as strict with some rare exceptions.Is it just Spinball where you can't ride as a single rider?

I don't get why 1 person can't go on spin ball. Its not like the rapids where someone might get up fanny around and fall in. But what are they going to do on Spinball considering you are strapped in. They put me in a cable car all on my own so I really don't see the issue with Spinball. Unless its purely capacity which is a shame.

I don't think the issue is necessarily sending 1 single rider round on their own, more that single riders are used to fill the gaps where there are smaller groups. Stick a single rider on Spinball where there is a "social group" of 2 or 3 and you're breaking the guidelines of social distancing and keeping social groups together and away from others.I don't get why 1 person can't go on spin ball.

Just the park wide rule, it's not a spinball specific thing but the park rule+social distancing isn't something they can work around for spinball.I don't get why 1 person can't go on spin ball.

Is it though and even if it was then that still doesn't explain why

I'm pretty sure it is specific to spinball, am i right in saying you can't only have 1 person in a car anyway and due to social distancing they cant put a single rider with another group?

I mean the park has a 2 rider minimum for most rides but it only becomes an issue for spinball.I'm pretty sure it is specific to spinball, am i right in saying you can't only have 1 person in a car anyway and due to social distancing they cant put a single rider with another group?

A few hosts I've asked about that rule say it's for safety reasons.Is it though and even if it was then that still doesn't explain why
