2023: General Discussion

[Dobba]

Marauder's Mayhem's roof has been rethatched.

Is there something additional in mutiny bay as well? There were things in the most recent drone footage that I didn’t recognise, not sure if it’s something for the half term event, or if it’s just something that looks different from an above angle.

Rest in Peace Enterprise... you did good...

But not so much recently ...

 

[Trooper Looper]

But not so much recently ...

Definitely, but I was referring to its time of operations as a whole since the 80s.

Kept a few out of the coaster queues, so it was a bit useful.
Hadn't ridden it in decades.

Good. The man was absolutely useless. There was not a member of staff that I worked with that had a positive opinion of him.

What we're his negatives then? I've never heard of him, so it'll be interesting to hear why you dislike him.

Maybe I missed it but bring a friend tickets are now £19 not £15

That’s quite a significant price jump.

 

[AT86]

That’s quite a significant price jump.

Although compared to the equivalent Thorpe Park pass offer, it’s a bargain.

 

[jon81uk]

That’s quite a significant price jump.

Still a good deal overall when it’s £35ish normally to book to get in.

Where did I go wrong last year ?



Or is this the bring a friend vouchers that come with the pass ?

MAP gets friends and family (the ones you have shown in the screen shot) and some form of ‘bring a friend’ depending on pass level.

Park specific passes only have the bring a friend option.

I see !

Irrespective, getting in to Alton Towers for less than £20 in 2023 seems insane to me.

For once, I agree with Rick. The price of £15.00 hasn't really increased in a while and an increase is still reasonable as one of the pass perks.

However, on the flip side - the £5.00 Fastrack voucher that comes with passes also hasn't increased in a decade. It's basically worthless.

Feels like they're still giving it away, though. Even with the increase. I am sure there is method in the madness. Maybe.

 

[GaryH]

No bring a friend vouchers available though for opening day looking at the ticket calendar

Struth! Crikey! Flammin' Shelia's!

That plea for work opportunities indicates a less than amicable departure maybe?

Or he just wants to go back to his home country.
