  1. Wasn't the reserve and ride system supposed to run also on selected days of july? I think they have changed their dates recently..
  2. Indeed, a taxi could be a good plan but unfortunately we are just two travelling so it wouldn't be worth I think Anyway thanks for the idea ! :-)
  3. Okay, thank you for your answers Hope it will reopen soon anyway.
  4. Hello again I've a little question for those who have taken Thorpe Park bus (from staines station) once. How does it work ? Can I buy a ticket directly inside the bus or do I have to buy it somewhere else ? Another question, I've heard about the collision that occured on Smiler at Alton Towers 2 weeks ago. I totally understand that Merlin want to add another layer of safety on this type of coaster. Even in the french coasterfan community, we talk a lot about this accident. As a result, saw is currently closed. Do you have any idea if it will reopen next month ? ( once again, sorry about my english )
  5. I will sleep there the 13th of july, do you think that some ride can still stay open after the official park closing ( selected rides from 6pm to 9pm) and do you also think that I'll have the fast track in the morning ? ( You can I grab it ? )
  6. Hi guys Little post to tell you that a lot of sources ( screamscape today for example ) are talking about a Launched Intamin coaster ( It seems to be a mix of Th13teen and Cheetah hunt ) for the 2016 new ride. I'm really looking forward to it, Phantasialand is near where I live, and I know that they will don't disappoint us and make a very impressive new ride
  7. Thank you about these last answers I will think seriously about getting some fastrack on monday if the Reserve'n'ride doesnt work and if it is really too busy I wasn't expecting something very great for the night but thank you about the information
  8. It's good to know about the train tickets, thank you Is it really a problem if the tube is busy, it's only 7-8 stops with two trains to take from St Pancras to Waterloo isn't it ? That was what I've calculed too I hope I will not have problems to find the right bus stop and the right train platform. The first day is a monday ( and so I also stay in the park on Tuesday ). Which day will be the busiest ?
  9. I don't really mind about my post code but I think I will use thorpe's one. The belgian postcodes aren't the same as UK postcodes, that was very hard for me to make the booking Thank's for the information
  10. Uh, that's what I feared.. The system uses smartphone, if I have to use 3G in the park, it would be as expensive as a fastrack. ( Maybe Thorpe is a park that has a true working "Free Wifi" in it ). The only think I want is to be surprised anyway
  11. Thank you for your answers ! If I understand well, the best way from St Pancras is taking the bus or the tube. I hope I wouldn't get problems with the transports. I arrive at St Pancras at 8 AM. If I don't get lost, It would be possible to arrive at Thorpe's Openning, isn't it ? And about the train tickets, is it better to buy them in advance with buy internet ? How does the reserve'nride work ? I've looked on their website but I don't understand which device I have to use ? Do I have to buy some special tickets or something ? Last time I went to thorpe, that was in the very end of june ( 26th ). I'm an engineer student, I don't really fear school trips. Moreover, I will spend two days in the park, I will be peaceful I think. I hope I will have two good days I'm very excited about this trip
  12. That's exactly why my friend and I decided to take 2 days in the park so that we can benefit to the Early ride time and stay in the park till the closing. However I think I will have to think seriously about a fastrack. It's not everyday that we visit Thorpe Park ( as far as I'm concerned . Another question : I've heard that the park could give a 1 hour unlimited fastrack to the Hotel Guests during the first opening hour. Is it still true in 2015 and will we still have early ride access one hour before the park opening ? Edit : You seem to know thorpe much more than me ! Do you have good visits tips for this period ?
  13. Ok, thank you for your answers I hope it will be less crowed than 4 years ago when I visited in end of June.
  14. Hello everyone, First of all, excuse me about my English, I am a french coasterfan I hope I'm writing this message in the right section. I apologize if I'm wrong. I've visited Thorpe Park 4 years ago and I'll be back there with a friend in early july ( two days from the 12th I think ). We have already booked our tickets, the night in the Shark Hotel and the eurostar. The reason I write here is that I've some questions 1) We arrive in London the first day at 8 AM. Is it possible to get there by train ? I've heard that the best plan was to take a train from warteloo Station to staines and then go to the park by bus, is it he best way to get there so? 2) How busy will be these days in July ? I know there's a risk of high waiting time but I'll buy fastrack if needed. 3) In the confirmation mail, the hotel tells about "Mix of chilled evening entertainment", what are they talking about ? What kind of entertainment will it be? 4) How does their early ride access work ? 5) Are some rides openned later after the park close for the hotel guests ? Thank you for your answers and sorry again for my English
