Happy RAP booking day! šŸ„³


Unsurprisingly the app wasn't working this morning when Mrs looked.

Do you know what's happening with Chessy? My best friend needs to book for feb half term, but the link displays an error.

Chessy RAP is still broke, my bestie is panicking now. Also, anyone know if Thorpe RAP is sold out for March? Apparently it's up but the dates are greyed out.
 
The other half has been on her phone since 8am checking to see if anything has been released, the things we have to go through. I'm sure it is not the case, but feels like people in Merlin HQ sitting there saying 'let make these buggers wait all day'.

They can't win either way I suppose, but still a bit frustrating.

If the plan was to release at an unspecified time to try and avoid a meltdown they could have at least stated this. Iā€™ve been checking all day too, phone is already down to 33% šŸ«£

It's crazy. I suppose I get why they do not specify a time, but if they release at 3pm for example, by about 3:02 word would have got around and everyone will be bundling on anyway.
 
Was checking all day since 5am as I start work at 6 anyway. Just my luck that in the half hour drive home just the app started working. Opening day RAP slots already gone. Absolutely typical.
 
I've spent my whole day constantly checking the app too, and in the one half an hour I let my guard down, I too missed getting a RAP for Opening Weekend meet šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø Perhaps I can still hire a mobility scooter to at least navigate the park with-

Oh. There's no availability showing for scooters or wheelchairs on any dates this season. Um... lovely.
 
Interestingly states the following;

From 2nd February 2026, Merlin will be accepting the following Nimbus symbols for RAP eligibility:
ā€¢ Difficulty Standing
ā€¢ Level Access
ā€¢ Urgent Toilet Needs

So moving forward, difficulty with crowds won't come under the RAP scheme.
