Like Marc I have used fastrack. I have never paid for it myself though and I simply hate the idea of it. I have only used it when it's been given to me(by someone random who has to go, customer services, or when I've been stuck on a ride) but I am not going to pay for it. Simple.
I always hate it in the nemesis inferno queueline and other queue lines for that matter where you get stopped right before you go into the building, or the station and a massive line of fastrackers go in front of you. YES it does make your overall wait time longer because if you had gone into the station those fastrackers would be behind you, or if they had not fastracked at all they still would be behind you. That is why I simply hate fastrack because its queue jumping and there are many signs around the park saying if you queue jump you will be removed. Do I see fastrackers being removed because they queue jumped? No because they have paid for it. It is unfair.
This is why I like the idea of reserve n ride. You are basically fastracking but for free. However everyone does it. Lets say the swarm queue is 60 mins. Without reserve n ride you would just get on one ride, the swarm. With reserve n ride, you could get on 3 rides; swarm being 60 mins, samurai 35 and vortex 20. Instead of using up 2 hours to get on 3 rides, you use up one. That is why I simply love the idea and hope thorpe will continue you with it. I am also hoping to get to the trial on the 8th September. If reserve n ride is continued(which I hope it is), I hope fastrack will be taken away completely from anything with reserve n ride on it. On the smaller rides, there can still be fastrack but I'm hoping they will put reserve n ride on the big ones and remove fastrack. Full stop. In reality, is this going to happen. No because fastrack is a great way to make money and I can't see it being removed.
