  1. Hi, relatively new here so if this is in the wrong place, sorry!

     

    I should be visiting Alton Towers this weekend and am hoping to ride The Smiler for the first time. I am aware of Single Rider, is this the quickest way to get on? As it is a summer weekend, I suppose it will be rather busy so the main queue could be quite long.

     

    Thank you!:)

    I think it's a shame that popular family rides sit rotting away whilst money is spent on things like this, which fizzle out after the first year or so.

    Completely agree here. Personally, I think the money spent on a IAC (surely the IP alone would've been very expensive?) should have spent on actually redeveloping Loggers Leap, a well established and somewhat major ride at the park. Now both attractions are suffering due to Merlin not looking at the future and only focusing on quick profit.

  3. It's been confirmed by the park's Twitter. Strange move, really. I suppose if a somewhat minor attraction such as this is closed to make their major new attraction an overall better experience, it could be justified. Let's just hope DBGT:ROTD is a major improvement from last year's disappointment. If not, they have a lot to answer for.

  4. Well, all I can think of is DBGT:ROTD potentially having a scare maze at the end and the actors are being put in there for peak periods? Probably not the case but even so, it's stupid to close IAC (which is barely 2 years old!) for pretty much the whole season.
