SuperV 62 Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 It's so close! I'm camping in Tweed Heads and just waiting for the news it's soft opening. I'll be right on up. Link to post Share on other sites
Santa07 1,023 Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 So $10 backwards seats by the looks of things... quite expensive if you ask me, I think $5 is a lot more appropriate, those seats are going to be empty for a fair bit of the year (could be a great way to skip a long queue though) 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jay Jay The Jet Plane 1,458 Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 (edited) Ok so there's a few us lining up and we have been told that it's expected to open within the next hour and they are doing the final checks right now as I speak Edited September 16, 2017 by Adventures With JWorld 3 Link to post Share on other sites

A little bit hard at the moment when there's a massive barrier blocking off the attraction but will do when it opens Edited September 16, 2017 by Adventures With JWorld Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt they'll have any issues filling the seats. They may well have peak and off-peak pricing but why not leverage the hype? Smart way to make money on every cycle. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Tim Dasco 794 Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 I think it's a good idea. When they have a 30million dollar investment they need it to pay for itself and give a ROI. So charging for the backwards seat might help. Link to post Share on other sites
