Posted October 23, 200816 yr comment_37067 is the fast track system here the same as Thorpe park and is it worth it
October 23, 200816 yr comment_37070 Fastrack at Alton is MUCH better value than Thorpe. The prices are lower and you get given an allocated time slot, and they sell a limited amount so it doesn't become a mess like Thorpe.Fastrack Thrills - £8 - Nemesis, Air, Oblivion and The Flume.Fastrack Adventurer - £4 - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Runaway Mine Train and Corkscrew.Fastrack Rita - £4 - This is an add-on fastrack ticket which will add Rita Queen of Speed to your fastrack ticket.Fastrack One Shot - £3 - Allows one ride on Nemesis, Oblivion or The Flume.Fastrack Ultimate - £30 - Unlimited rides on Battle Galleons, Heave Ho, Marauders Mayhem, Rita, Air, Nemesis, Ripsaw, Oblivion, Enterprise, Submission, Corkscrew, Hex, The Flume, Duel, Congo River Rapids, Spinball Whizzer, Runaway Mine Train and Charlie & The Chocolate Factory.
October 23, 200816 yr Author comment_37071 in extreme or wat ever its called they should change the flume to rita and the same with thorpe but have stealth in stead of loggers and get rid of x no way out and put there new ride in it saw
October 23, 200816 yr comment_37073 That could happen next year with the recent introduction of Hydrate fastrack or whatever that ones called. Personally I've always thought it's ridiculous having an extra fastrack package just for Stealth and Rita.
October 23, 200816 yr comment_37075 Fast track Ultimate at Alton Towers is just one Fast track per ride included. One day admission to Alton Towers theme park plus one Fastrack ride on: Air, Nemesis, Rita, Ripsaw, Duel, Rapids, Hex, Spinball, Runaway Mine Train, Oblivion, Corkscrew, The Flume, Enterprise, Submission, Charlie, Battle Galleons, Heave Ho & Marauders Mayhem.
October 23, 200816 yr Author comment_37082 Fast track Ultimate at Alton Towers is just one Fast track per ride included. ohh cause when I got ulltimate at thorpe I got on as many rides as I wanted to as mant tymes I wanted to
October 23, 200816 yr comment_37084 Ahh yeah my bad. I thought it was unlimited but just looked on the official site and it is one day entry with one ride on each of the listed rides.
October 23, 200816 yr Author comment_37088 Topic already made, click here.yehh but tht one is for thorpe this is alton
October 23, 200816 yr comment_37161 Also towers barely ever ever have fastrack in operation. Think I've seen it in operation once this year, and that day was extremely busy.. and barely anyone had it! It is probably the best system I've seen ever.
October 24, 200816 yr comment_37167 I think the thing with Alton's fastrack is that their rides can handle the system. Nemesis, Air, Oblivion and The Flume, The lowest one there is Nemesis and even that's 1200 which is an impressive number. Then look at Thorpe. They've got it on rides like Samurai and Vortex which are terrible at eating through people.Alton also have reliable rides (with the exception of Rita ) which means you are less likely to get everyone from Oblivion trying to go on Air for example. Alton have the system far better with much less tickets given out meaning there is less impact on the queue itself.Things like the Ultimate at Thorpe really do get on my nerves. For instance tpKabz for example. Riding Stealth 35 times. I mean was it really that different from the first or second time you rode it that day. I can understand the normal fastrack's parks sell but the ultimate really is one I don't like.
October 24, 200816 yr Author comment_37170 when I used ultiate at thorpe I was realy anoyed because it was fright ninght and it was sunday so I thought it would be packed but the biggest queue was 50 mins for stealth and it was on one train
October 24, 200816 yr comment_37211 stealth and it was on one trainIt wasn't on just one train for that long though.
October 24, 200816 yr comment_37214 I bought fastrack at Alton once, on airs openeing year, whenever that was, the queue was verging 4 hours or something stupid like that, and we bought the fastrack for nemesis and air, both single. But yeah, Alton obviously do enforce a much better fasstrack system.
October 25, 200816 yr comment_37303 I think ultimates are great!you can go on as many times as you want!
October 28, 200816 yr comment_37573 Just a quick question, and I know this might sound a little stupid.Where do you buy the Fast Track tickets at Alton and how do you use them. Thanks...
October 28, 200816 yr comment_37586 Buy them at the entrance or the erm.. information kiosks (there's one by the X sector toilets). The rides which operate fastrack have seperate queues.
November 23, 200816 yr comment_39972 What rides do you get on the Ultimate Fastrack and how much is it?many thanks!
November 23, 200816 yr comment_39975 Useful page about Alton Towers Fastrack here.IMO Alton never really have days when Ultimate would be necessary.
May 17, 200916 yr comment_55988 At Thorpe they should make a "daredevil" one which lets you get on once on Stealth, Saw, Colossus, Nemises Inferno, Tidal, Rush, Samurai, Vortex and Slammer For £20 each.
May 17, 200916 yr comment_55990 At Thorpe they should make a "daredevil" one which lets you get on once on Stealth, Saw, Colossus, Nemises Inferno, Tidal, Rush, Samurai, Vortex and Slammer For £20 each.It's a good concept, and I think it would be a good seller. Fastrack is generally too expensive anyway. Even if the Ultimate was £20, I still wouldn't buy it. (Unless I had an Annual Pass). Thorpe Park should take a page out of Alton's Book, and do a fastrack that allows you to ride all of the Fastrack attractions once. I think a lot more people would buy that ticket, than an unlimited one but costing £30 or so more. That's an idea for Thorpe, New Ultimate Fastrack - £20. Allows you on all of the Fastrack rides once. If I had an annual pass, I would buy that as well.
May 17, 200916 yr comment_55995 Thorpe Park should take a page out of Alton's Book, and do a fastrack that allows you to ride all of the Fastrack attractions onceFor £30? No thanks, I would rarther pay £20 extra and do them unlimited times, mind you I would only ever consider getting that at FN.
