Tidal Wave News
In the last post I reported that Tidal Wave will be leaving the park at the end of this season but things have changed for the ride a little earlier than expected.
From now until the end of the season, the ride will only be operating on weekends, a move which has been made by the park to save money on running and staffing costs. Surprisingly though, the ride has been given new seatbelts which the park hope will help attract a buyer.
I’m not so sure anyone would want to buy a ride that when operating you can hear from three counties away!
Online Booking System Problems
Some people have been having problems with Flamingo Land’s online booking system this season. The park ask that you print out the confirmation letter that gets generated upon completion of your payment and bring it to the park with you.
The problem that seems to be occuring quite a lot is the confirmation letter not generating and users being left with a blank screen, leaving them panicking that they have paid but wont be allowed to enter the park!
If this does happen to you, just take the booking reference with you and there should be no problems getting in.
Flamingo Land do have a new team in to manage the future of the websites so hopefully the problem will be solved with them some time soon.
