230 minutes. That’s just under four hours for a ride that had settled into a pattern of 75-90 mins. @ryan1 is so right about fast passes.

And UXP is only sold as halving the queue time - so you could still be waiting nearly 2hrs with UXP!

Agree!!
It’s just a synthetic class system

It won’t be. I’ve never waited that long in express and I have it every trip. 45 min is my max.

Yes it is but it’s also entertainment and not healthcare or toll roads so I’m okay with it. It’s a correct use of capitalism.
Depends what line you’re in.

Ha ha. I mean that line does have some entertainment lol. And a lot of stone cellar walls.

That may be a result, but from the perspective of the owner of the theme park the intent of implementing a fastpass system is to capture consumer surplus (not to create a class system).

The Efteling in the Netherlands is a terrific park that has seen continued growth and expansion. They have a deliberate policy of not having a fast track system in place. This is because they want the experience to be equally magical for all guests and to encourage guests to slow down and enjoy the park’s theming. Perhaps crucially it is a not-for-profit foundation, making it mission-driven rather than shareholder-driven.
Those crazy Europeans, eh?

Adding to my must-do list! Have ridden before but might as well get another ride in before it closes. Pretty sure I didn’t do a hidden track.

That ride did things to my special area that no special area should have done to it.

Either of the two Muppets tracks are a hoot! Rainbow Connection (902) works strangely well. And Movin’ Right Along (901) is just fun.

This was my track for my very last ride 
DS was next to me also listening to Rainbow Connection. We were both singing along together while riding, at night 
We timed it perfectly for the drone show to be visible while riding 
One of my all time favourite Florida memories

I actually like RRR. Not my favorite. It’s still a bit rough and about 20 seconds too long though! During those last couple of “camel humps” on the last leg I usually am “waiting” for it to be over!
I did have to “invent” my own technique to ride it without injury. I call it “The Vice!” 
You crush your skull between your hands the entire ride to hold it steady. It looks dumb, but I was going to hold my hands in the air anyway! This way I don’t get a headache!!
