Quick update on the season pass saga, no longer allowed to use a screenshot on your phone, has to be displayed in the app

If it’s just a QR code they need, how would they tell?

And why does it matter exactly provided they can verify it’s you using it?

I'm not sure, but I had to stand there and wait whilst the app opened with the terrible signal in there. I'm too lazy to open it to confirm, but I'm sure their own website recommends using a screenshot for your eticket...

I do think it's funny as the turnstiles only allow you to scan once a day at the entrance, so by checking manually and not scanning anything, they've took away a security feature if anything.

It's also not clear if that security lane is exclusive for pass holders, as I saw many people queue for a while, reach the front only to see the sign saying season pass entrance and turned themselves away.

Presumably once inside you can still get issued a paper E-ticket anyway. I still think this is the easiest way to do it. No bother then about opening the app, phone signal etc, at the scanner.

And if someone is taking ages at the scanner, surely the staff will just let them in anyway to keep things moving.
