Quick Questions

Will SAW Alive be open throughout the 2013 season or only during Fright Nights?

Hey has anyone seen any buy one get one free cupons yet anywhere? Thanks, Mr Fish

Hey guys, I have now been notified that merlin staff can attend the preview day aswell with their friends which is a shame because I have missed the day now! Just for future reference: Will there be a 2014 friends and family day? How many friends/family can the staff take? How to get tickets for the day and do you have to pay? If there is one next year I may get a good chance to ride the 2014 ride with a short queue

Hiya Guys and Gals, I gonna be coming up to Thorpe for opening day, but its my first time using the thorpe bus service, so Ive got a couple of questions. 1) How much does it cost for a return fair? 2) Can someone explain the departures bit to me on this site, I'm only gonna be at the park for a couple of hours because Ill be going to London Dungeons later in the afternoon, so do the buses actually take people back from thorpe park to the station before 3:30pm? http://www.thorpepark.com/downloads/plan-your-visit/bus-950-timetable.pdf 3) How long does the journey take roughly, so I get to the train station on time. Thanks jjh123horry

Anyone who has visited the Park during the summer season would have noticed that pretty much every member of ride staff wears a pair of Ray Bans, are staff given a pair or do they go out and buy them themselves?

Hey guys just wondered if there are still buses that run between stains train station and Thorpe park in the week when the park is closed if so does anybody know what times and number buses they are? Thanks ;D

Hi guys, I'm just about to book a ticket for my friend at £30.24 for the opening day 14th March. Now I read that friends and family can get 50% off the ticket price when a MAP books. I've tried the THorpe Park number to enquire or even book a ticket for my friend but it obviously says Thorpe Park is closed. How can I enquire/book if the park is closed ?! I'm happy to book online but I just wanted to see whether it was cheaper booking over the phone. Does anyone have an alternative number? Can I book via Merlin rather than THorpe Park itself? CAn someone reply ASAP as I'm on my lunch break waiting to book.... Ta x Emma x

Just wondering, I am planning on getting a Thorpe Park annual pass for my birthday but I was wondering if the pass allows you to get into AP days, although I wont be going to an AP day this year it would be good to know in advanced.

Hi guys, Have been catching up on the Swarm backwards thread and the possibly renovation of X:/No Way Out and its getting me excited to get back to TP when it opens on 14th March! So my question is, from previous experiences - what is the first day open to the public like? Is it quiet? Busy? All rides working? Everything finished and running I.e. no overlaps with works etc? Its my birthday on the 12th March so I'm using it as an excuse to go TP on the first day it opens. I might as well get as much use out of my AP before it expires in August! It won't stop me going either way but just intrigued! Thanks guys x Em x

Hey. I'am currently trying to purchase either a Thorpe Park/Alton Tower T shirt or hoodie for someone, but was wondering if there was any way I could get one online. I would usually try and get one from the park itself but I doubt I am going there until later this year and by then, it would be too late. I know this is very unlikely, but I thought it may at least be worth a shot. Thanks.

Just seen on the news that Staines and Chertsey are at risk of flooding. Could Thorpe be at risk? I'm sure it wouldnt be anything drastic but its worth a thought with the amount of rain falling at the moment :s Anyone know if this could be a problem?

Hi guys/girls. I have actually been thinking about getting a Thorpe Park annual pass for some time now but am really not sure weather it would be worth it. I have been researching all the various annual passes to find the prices and the best benefits, unfortunately most sources seem to say different things. So my question to you guys is, do you think it is worth getting an average Thorpe Park pass for the new year? I visit approximately three times a year though I could try and make it more if I were to have a pass. I live about an hour away so getting their is not easy. It could be difficult for me to find people to go with. Am unaware of the actual price for one a…

Do queue times affect your time at thorpe park. Due to me still being at school, and my 2 younger brothers are not tall enough to ride rides at thorpe park, my parents rather go Alton Towers as it has rides for me and my brothers. However, I go thorpe park once a year with my school. This is obviously a busy times. However, I do see that Thorpe Park are less organised than the towers, with queueing systems. Here is an example of differences of queue times. FACT: I went to thorpe Park: 17th July 2012 I went to Alton Towers: 26th October 2012 Thorpe Park Queues: Swarm- 75 Mins Saw- The Ride- 90 Mins Nemesis Inferno- 80 Mins Colossus- 120 mins Tidal Wave- 60 Mins L…

I guess we are saying goodbye to slammer guys! I may not be right but check these out! I never got a chance to ride this epic ride and don't wanna say goodbye to it, they would need to replace it for something better if they are getting rid of it! This info may not be correct, on the website it says that slammer is in the full ride listing but look at this! http://www.thorpepark.com/ First of all, it has been removed off the extreme thrills on the front page, maybe a thorpe park error! Also check this out: http://www.thorpebreaks.co.uk/thorpe-park-rides.html Slammer is not in the extreme thrills list on thorpe breaks and it is clearly an extreme thrill.... What are…

Ok guys I am getting an annual pass for next season and was wondering how it works! Do you just go straight up to the barriers(thorpe park,alton towers, chessington) and scan your annual pass or do you need to buy tickets? This would be extremely useful as I can find out if I need to arrive early on peak days! Thanks guys

Guys I know barely anyone will know this if anyone.... I want to know: If it is returning in 2013, if you don't know how likely is it? What dates will it be will it be roughly a week like last year? How good was it last year and what were the events like(I've never been to sunscream before ) How busy is it, what are the queues like? If you have an annual pass is there an event fee and do you need to prebook with an annual pass? Thanks guys, I look forward to replies

If you have a merlin annual pass, can you get a 20% discount off fastrack? I may be getting an annual pass next year so I would like to know if you can for what packages and rides! Thanks guys, I hope I can get fastrack cheaper! P.s is it like you can get a discount off accelerator fastrack and extreme fastrack and hydration fastrack or what?

Is there no single rider for anything in 2012 except Stealth ?Am planning to go Sunday again yet only if there is single riders, I did not notice the other week when I went

Just wondering how many times you've been Thorpe Park this year so far... and your favourite ride! I've been 8 times since May been trying to go at least once/twice a month as its "me" time since having a baby last year, and being back to work and my daughter in nursery I take the opportunity to book a day's holiday and leave my daughter at nursery and then come to Thorpe Park for the day! Its my hobby I guess ha ha ha ! I decided I should really get an AP (as I was finding it difficult to find the 2 for 1 all the time!)so I did with my 18,000 nectar points I'd had saved so am going even more since having this last month! My favourite ride still has to be stealth even…

Just curious, never figured it out!

Do premium annual pass holders have to pay for the passing?

From my first visits to fright nights this year and discussions with employees the normal level of security has been decreased around the mazes and particullary the rear of the park. ( Monks Walk ) Now dont get me wrong from literally 100's of visits over the years I'm not saying that we all risk death! lol but the invasion of the chavs and rude boys that we always see to increase this time of the year ultimatly will ruin things for those true customers like ourselves! I saw no visible security like in previous years ( normally blokes in black jackets etc ) around the entrances of the mazes, just 17 year old girls in high viz! Now what on earth could they do if / when it …

I was queuing up for nemesis inferno and noticed this. It is above burger king I think. Is it damage or theming?

Me being the silly goose I am have only just realised that my Merlin Pass runs out on Thursday. I'm going to Fright Nights on Saturday and have a pre-booked ticket but I need to bring a valid Merlin Pass along with me for entry. Does anybody know if the AP office opens 10:00 at Thorpe just like the gates because I was planning to arrive there for about half 9 and it would be great if I could pick up my renewed pass at about that time. I know it's not the appropriated place, but to save me making a new topic does anybody also know if the office at The London Eye is open on Sundays because I could actually renew it online now and pick it up there tomorrow instead if that i…
