  1. Another sure way of not making money is to open a park that nobody attends.... If WWW was even close to profitable during winter it would be open

  2. I have no grievance with the GC water parks reducing hours over winter. WWW haven't reduced hours; WWW has locked the gate. Theme Parks and water parks are different beast and you don’t operate them the same. A theme park, you want a person to stay in the park as long as you can hold onto them because there is a ton of situations to get your fingers into their wallets & purses, to get every cent out of the guest. An example of a park holding onto guest: When Universal Hollywood is open during the quieter periods, the first showing of WaterWorld doesn’t happen to after lunch because Universal know people will stay in the park to see the show. Some of those people waiting will get hungry and buy lunch. An example of a park not holding onto a guest I turned up at DW the other day at opening, just to see the new SV production. I entered the park, watched the show, and left straight away. DW didn’t make 1 cent out of me. Now if I had turned up and the new experience did not happen for a few hours, 1. I would have purchased a coffee. 2. If you have a child with you, the kid would have started asking for food. DW spend a lot of time, effort and money getting people into the park in the first place, and when the guest are inside, DW should capitalise on keeping the guest in the park, spending money and not shutting early. One sure way of not making money is not being open. A water park has limited opportunities to get extra money out of guest. WWW, one gift shop & and one food eatery. (arcade but Dapto said no) A water park you’re not making extra money keeping the guest in the park because little Jenny can only eat so many hot chips. The water park makes its money by people entering the front gate. You let the guest in, you feed the guest & you kick the guest out. I've been on a water slide while it's snowing, so if you can't keep a slide open in winter in Queensland, you're doing it wrong.

  3. I waited to after the holidays to take flight because when I went during the holidays the queue exceeded 1 hour. The quality of the image on the screen has improved but there is a but. You can see light boxes behind the image. The reflection onto the screen of emergency exit signs is annoying but I do not know how you fix the reflection because you can’t position the signage anywhere you want. The film was immersive, and it has a couple of moments where the audience gasps. The film felt short but I’m not sure if it was short compared to the other productions because I didn’t time it or felt short because I was immersed in it and lost track of time. It is a defendant must see and DW are doing an excellent job mixing up films.

  4. It’s definitely not a bad addition. I enjoy these high throughput speed slides. But I feel the disappointment with this being one pf very few additions to wet n wild. I would love to see a large scale raft ride with a raft lift personally. The huge lack of slides with raft lifts at wnw is wild. Call me lazy but I think they’re necessary.
