Queue Tips

There is nothing worse than having queued 2 hours for a rollercoaster, and when you eventually arrive at the station realising that people are using single rider queue lines to get on the same ride in under 20 minutes!

This guide explains how to find and use queue systems such as single rider and Fastrack to skip the queues on the day.

Get to the park early and make the most of the park in the morning as the queues will increase quickly. The last 2 hours on park see the queues die down as most people head off home before ride close, so you can also make the most of queues then.

Single Rider Queues (SQR)

These queues are used to fill empty seats on the trains of the rollercoasters and often cut queue times by at least half. You may queue with friends / family, but you have limited chance of being on the same train as them and you have no choice or priority of seats, "single riders are purely used to fill seats". Use single rider queues early because soon as people see others use it, then they catch on too and the queue line soon becomes busy. Single rider queue lines are situated -

- AIR - To the right of the normal entrance.
- Nemesis - Head to the deepest part of the nemesis pit and follow signs.
- Oblivion - Situated to the left of the main entrance (clearly signposted).
- RITA - Opposite to the main entrance (clearly signposted).
- Spinball Whizzer - Clearly signposted queue line to the right of entrance.
