All Activity

I had ultimate FastTrack a couple weeks back and I had a few front row and back row rides throughout the day. They normally let FastTrack through pretty instantly regardless of how many people are on the stairs, it’s random and depends on the host so I wouldn’t really worry too much about it.

Wow - that came out of the blue. I love the waterside location, and it’s cool to see it could be different to anything they’ve done before. An interesting choice of location however given how poorly the other parks have done in the area, not to mention Disney’s values and focus on inclusivity. Still. It’s very exiting to see Disney spending so much money on their parks again recently. This could very well end up being the cheaper option to visit from the UK compared with a trip to Orlando (although you wouldn’t have all the neighbouring parks of course). And it would also open up a great Disney stopover for people flying to Europe from Asia and Australia. Good news for DLP and Universal GB.

Disney and Miral just announced a brand new resort park in Abu Dhabi. Looks like they have gone down a different route and are doing something different to the usual castle park(judging by the concept art) Disney and Miral Announce New Seventh Theme Park Planned for Abu Dhabi Disney Announces Plans for New Theme Park and Resort with Miral in Abu Dhabi

Park's closed today so whether the part has arrived or not yet and they're fitting it as speak is a possibility.

I'm thinking of buying an ultimate plus fast track and riding hyperia all day. The only thing that worries me is missing out on front row every time. I think this will happen because of the way the staircase is always filled with main queue after dealing with access and fast track. Then I turn up in fast track and irrespective of how much the staircase has moved, I'll keep joining that same point. I estimate 30 people fill the stairs, 20 to a train so I'll keep ending up on middle row give or take. Would it be selfish to let a few people past me up to a certain point (1/3 up the stairs) to stand a chance at front row once go's? Has anyone ever worked out the staircase capacity relative to the row positions?

At least they stated what's going on instead of flat out saying ''it's closed'' Hopefully back up soon but probably won't be going for a little bit after my next visit in a couple of days.

Ha no worries! Yes nothing at all from Stealth again today. A member of staff stated it’s awaiting a part. Hopefully it’ll be back in the next few weeks

Just realised that... my mate runs that account so he'll be getting words off me lol

That’s from the @Thorpepork account. Not Thorpe’s official twitter

Thorpe themselves.... Whether they ditched it last minute and thus no action or whatever, I don't know.

Where did you hear this? It’s not looking like it will.

Wait apparently Stealth was gonna open today...

Skyride is down today. Staff saying it will 'hopefully open later' which is no good once I've already walked to the other side of the park 😒 Edit: Also, it's very sad to see Toxicator's queueline scratched-up with graffiti.

For sure! Hopefully it’ll be back within the next few weeks

Exhibit A: DigitalDan's most recent video

Add in customs faff too. But means the influencers can up their views a bit by creating "OMG PANICK" videos.

If only Thorpe had an Argos type catalogue and sent for the part by Royal Mail 1st Class

So to bring some additional clarity to the situation... -The park are awaiting a part. This is evident by the fact staff aren't working on it actively. This means it'll be closed a while. Even when the part arrives, they will require time to test it. -It is likely a bigger / more expensive / specialist part, hence why the park didn't have one already. This takes time to acquire; it's not like they ring up Intamin and say "Can we have 1 [thing from catalogue] please?" and Intamin ship it out the next day from their warehouse either. -Time frame is unclear at the moment. How long is a piece of string. -Thorpe have no intention of getting rid of Stealth.

They must still be waiting for a part then. Wouldn't be worth having a train on the track if it wasn't going to be worked on.

I’m at the park today, no action from Stealth at all. No train on the track, no staff working on it. Music still playing in the plaza, it’s a little eerie! Don’t think it’ll be seeing any action today by the looks of things.

Guys.... what.....?

Someone on another forum reckons after talking to GS it's waiting for a part and might be another month yet.

I'm at the park on Thursday so might see what's going on then

Doesn’t look like it opened at all again today. Am going to the park tomorrow, so will take a look then

Has there been any action today?
