Fast Lane is always a bit of a controversial topic so I'll veer away from some of the social arguments for and against. However, I feel that at current rate there is a great possibility the risk will start outweighing the reward with greater impacts for the standby line. I also understand that these upgrades are here to stay. That said any changes must be profitable to the park. The current system is great for it's purchasers but there is likely hood of abuse. So using the current armband system and some software modifications I think a timed tier system would work wonders to level the playing field while still giving price based incentives. I'll give the example below, of course the prices could be adjusted these are just guessed approximations. Tier 1 $29.99 Guests are able to skip one attraction every hour and a half* *Mystic Timbers and Firehawk may only be skipped once every 2 hours Tier 2 $49.99 Guests are able to skip one attraction ever hour* **Mystic Timbers and Firehawk may only be skipped every hour and a half Tier 3 69.99 Guests are able to skip one attraction every 30 minutes* **Mystic Timbers and Firehawk may only skipped every hour Having an option at a lower price point would surely increase purchases while limiting it's benefits the most. This option has a minimal impact on the standby line. Even the highest tier option, while providing a great benefit to the purchaser is a controlled impact to standby. By selling it in tiers, this would also create additional options for Fast Lane season passes. Also implementation could occur simply by assigning time differentials to the wrist-bands (or other device) simply enter the Fast Lane cue scan to be provided access and your timer resets for your tiered amount of time. If you wanted to do an additional upgrade you could implement it by developing a simple watch band that would light up when it's your time to ride again. Anyhow this is just an idea that steals some of what I consider the best parts of different approaches to Fast Lane type systems. What do you all think?
