Apologies for double post...
I have just booked my flight as detailed in the first post in this topic and have just paid £56.86 including the £12 extra for baggage. So currently the flights are going fairly cheap, should anyone wish to book and attend the trip.
I can't remember the exact rides apart from the red coaster Alpine Thriller one year (wasn't even there this year) . It wasnt many (literally a couple) and none of those mentioned above were shut on any of the two years I visited (2016/2017). Dr Archibold was shut this year for the preview.
Yes, twice. It is great value, but quite busy, one or two rides not ready and don't expect to get on everything. That said we managed about £120 worth of rides both times and with the wristband costing £65 it still offers fantastic value.
The top scan is great! Wilde Maus XXL I enjoy more and more as i ride it! Like that most of the brakes don't slow you down! Probably the closest you'll come to experiencing anything like BPB Wild Mouse now days. Hangover is surprisingly more forceful than i'd have expect but still not like our friend Detty!
I also rode the hangover today, and is probably the second most forceful one I have done behind Detonator. I don't think it pushes but it is certainly a forceful enough experience! The very open restraints make it seem worse too!
Eventually it will be a three year version of the current ESTA required to enter the States, called an ETIAS.

Construction has already started from what a friend has said and the miniature railway ride removed as it ran through this area. Not sure if its planned to return though.
Looks very promising and look forward to seeing what the new area will bring.
