Firstly, this is site is bloody ace! Honestly, i hope the offical AT people give the owers/admin of this site free tickets because what you do is fantastic and probably more helpful than altontowers.com. Keep up the excellent work guys.
Secondly, i'm nearly 32 years old and i've been coming to AT for what must be nearly 13 years and I love the place. There's no other place like it in the UK. Thorpe Park is very good and has great rides but for me AT has a magical feel to it (similar to the feel which you get when you go to Disneyland) which Thorpe Park or Chessington cannot rival. I was introduced to AT by an ex GF of mine (my first trip to AT was eerely on the 11th Sept 2001) and now that i'm older I take my daughter with me who loves the place just as much as me! The staff are great, the food is generally good and the place is actually quite pictureque for a theme park.I hope to come back many more years into the future.
So the point of my post.....fastrack passes!
So this will be my 3rd trip to AT with my daughter, we first went in 2011 for our birthdays (we are born on the same day) for a 2 day stay over at Splash Landings but as she was only 6 we couldn't go on all big thrill rides. We went again the following year for a 2 night stay for the 2012 end of season Firework Spectacular which was brilliant but again she was just a few inches too small for the big rides although Thirteen was new and we were able to go on that. Last year we went to Euro Disney for Xmas but this year i've booked up AT for the Scarefest weekend!
Now last year we did a day trip to Thorpe Park for Scarefest which was really good BUT the queue times were just crazy, for Saw we queued for practically 2 hours which wasn't fun at all and the other main rides weren't much better. Now i was wondering if AT is just as busy during scarefest? We're staying from Friday (31st Oct which is Halloween) to the Sunday so i guessing it's going to be pretty busy? When booking the hotel (Splash) and all the tickets etc i managed to save £200 using the 'SUN14' code so i splashed out on 2 x gold fastracks. Now these cost a pretty steep £52 each but i thought i'd get them with savings i made from the 'SUN14' code and it would combat against a lot of queuing.
Now we've got 2 day theme park tickets so we have to use these on 2 of the 3 days we are staying over so does anyone know if am i able to use these fastrack passes over the 2 days we're in the park? Does anyone know If its possible, could i actually upgrade them to platinum? Would anyone recommend paying the extra for the platinum fastrack (they are £92 each!!!!)??
Any other info on Fastracks and Scarefest at AT would be much appreciated!
Thanks for reading guys,
