How accurate are the queue times at Alton Towers... Well you may be surprised! In this short video we get directly to the point, picking a handful of rides we start the timer and check how long it takes.
Parks get accused often of inflating queue times (to help sell fastrack) under estimate them (over sell of fastrack) or not providing them at all. However is this fair? Alton Towers is the UK's number one theme park, so where best to check this first. We test a variety of attractions on a busy weekend day to see how close they were.
How do you find the queue times at the Theme Parks, accurate, or not accurate?

I hate using the app for queue times especially in the rain but I can't say I've ever noticed that they didn't have queue boards 😂 don't know how I missed that! Over queuing 42 mins - that could have been another ride in that time. Another fab video, enjoyed the uniqueness of this one!

Hi Adam now that's really interesting about queue times, 3 days ago we was at Flamingo land for the 1st time, after getting my chest mounted gopro checked out i managed to ride Runaway train, Zooom, Dino Roller and Sik (main queue 40 minutes) single rider around 5 minutes, them 4 coasters experienced before 11am whereas Mumbo Jumbo and kumali a good hour for them to be ticked off

Flamingo land is a funny place for queues, you just never know what you're going to walk into!

Could be a league table coming along if you have managed to get this at all the Merlin parks?

Went to Chessington few days ago none of the electronic boards were switched on I had the app but without it I wouldn't have a clue on the times it does make me wonder Merlin are going to say goodbye to the electronic boards and it all now be on the apps at the end of the day my phone was out of life

We’ve had days where we have experienced under, accurate and over so I would have to say that technically they are not accurate at all 😂 apart from when they are of course 😂
