Went on this today with my 82 year-old mother, twice! This is the best time of year to go - late April - reasonable weather, no queues!

+Luke B i think it was more "Lets theme it" Air had no real theme. Plus the VR makes it a new experience.

+CoasterGuy air was themed around flying and to feel like free

@TheMaverick987 8 жыл бұрын

+Luke B And galactica is themed around flying higher.

I went on Air when I went with College in Summer 2005 for the end of the course trip. I was one of the the best rides I have ever been on it was very smooth and ran on rails. I would like to go on it again one day. Brilliant.

Best ride at Alton Towers. Proves that you don't have to be faster and higher to be a great roller coaster, just really well advanced.

@Wizardl0l 14 жыл бұрын

Just walking around Alton Towers gives you the BEST thrill ever! and the music is an added bonus to give you the best day ever!

@donovangionis5383 9 жыл бұрын

In my opinion, this is a great first ride to do at the park. It's relatively tame and very relaxing. I say the final coaster to graduate to would be Nemesis. That is easily the most intense ride in the park, and let's not forget that it is arguably the best coaster in the UK, so I definitely recommend saving it for last.

The sad thing is, John Wardley has retired, so...we wont have any awesome coasters in the future..

John Wardley still helps with the rides, modern ride designers for Alton Towers often get advice for him and his approval before building

The name 'Air' does so much to get you pumped for the ride. What ignorant fuqboi decides to rename and re-theme it, and take away much of what made the ride so cool? Galactica? Really? Screw that! It'll always be Air in my heart.
