Did you get some form of money back on your day there?

Yeah. I got 6 fast track passes for it.

About 45mins for TH13TEEN and Charlie. Something like that too for ice age.

2 hours for the smiler and 2.5 for air in 2012. A bubbly 30 mins my butt. I did enjoy it as it was my first thrill coaster. I remember it breaking and having 1 hour testing, greAt for a young thrill seeker.

At Towers? Can't remember.

Outside of Towers? 3 hours for Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts. I usually buy fastpasses at parks but Universal Express was like £100pp.

I honestly think I queued for up to two hours to ride Hex. Two hours of my life I never got back and to this day still hate Hex for the huge queues when it first opened and AT for keeping the ride a secret. The disappointment of the ride being dreadful didn't help matters. ](*,)

The chained oak will get its revenge on you... :lol just joking, it's your opinion but I wouldn't queue more than ten minutes for any flat at alton again, 30 minutes for hex was bad though.

Can't remember the exact time but it did feel like an age when queueing for Hex when it first opened. Though to be fair I found the videos and suspense of the secret very interesting when I was younger so didn't feel as bad as some other rides.

the swarm at TP waited 4 hours on a bank holiday weekend and broke down on the lifthill 3 times ](*,) :no:

Rita- 45mins
IN SINGLE RIDER QUEUE!

2 hours for The Smiler when it broke and a similar time for Goliath (the SF great America one) soon after opening day

The flume was about 50 and I waited for thi3teen for around 60-65
In the SRQ for Air I waited 35 min as they only let 5 people at a time but 2nd time on i skipped another 10 min as the family in front wanted to go down together

30 minutes for CaTCF, then broke down for around 20 minutes.

Nemesis 3 hrs 30 min
Rapids 3 hrs
Haunted house 2 hrs 15 min
Smiler 2 hrs

All on weekends or ride openings. I actually requed for nemmy after! Mind blowing ride

Between 2 and 3 hours for the Haunted House when it was new. The queue came way out of the graveyard.

:yikes:

I've got a new one after today. Nearly 3 hours for The Smiler, it was advertised 90 mins but it was more than that, then it decided to brake down twice when we were about to get on.

At Towers, it would be Rita, at 45 minutes.
At Thorpe Park, Colossus, at 150 minutes (times board claimed it was 90 before I unknowingly entered the queue... I was alone, without my phone or anything. Worst 150 minutes of my life.).
And as for Chessington, it's Vampire, at 120 minutes (times board claimed it was 45- a girl working at Bubbleworks later admitted to us that it she had forgotten to give it a much needed update).

I waited 2 hours for blivvy at peak when it broke down

Mine was smiler, I waited 2 hrs and 10 mins. But second must be rita, waited 45 mins =P~
