      They seem to be pretty busy now days, when they reopened after the accident (RIP to those who died) was the best time to go, $59 season passes, no lines, and everything had been through multiple safety audits.

        I wouldn't agree. The tickets were cheaper, no queues, but a half of the park didn't work and they had overkill safety measures like extra harnesses everywhere and two rounds of checks.
        I had their passes last year - still no crowd, but otherwise a totally different story - the opened new rides, refurbished old ones.

        • tryagain on 04/10/2023 - 10:37

          Agreed that there was no new ride investment at the time, but you could get more rides done in a two hour period then than you can in a whole day now.

        • 4foxache on 04/10/2023 - 17:15

          Dreamworld really screwed up when they opened their own water park so they could be a big 3 all by themselves.

          Should never have done that… everyone only ever went there for the big rides so they should've just doubled down on that and gone ever bigger.

          Probably why they skimped on maintenance because water park wasn't making any money.

          A “history” like this place? Please elaborate.

          Every time you drive a car you’re putting your life in the hands of thousands of other road users. I take you don’t drive a car then?

            The Coroners Court of Queensland did a pretty good inquest.
            They even released the findings, It might be a good start if you read that for your 'history'

              It was a “reportable death” in Queensland, of course the matter was referred to the Coroner. It’s a legislative requirement. And of course the inquest findings were published, virtually all findings are made public. The hearings and findings are a bit more extensive and complicated than conducting “a pretty good inquest”.

      Not being an apologist to management, but that sort of attitude of "the whole place should suffer because of management" plain sucks as Im fairly sure they are quire a large employer in the area and them failing has greater ramifications for the whole area.

      It is disgusting that the management team allowed significant breaches causing loss of life but that is entirely on the hands of the employer's incompetence, not the staff. Lets just bring out the Guillotine for next time and if they fail, let the beatings continue until morale (safety) improves across the whole park.

      • PainToad on 04/10/2023 - 09:25

        Do you not understand that your attitude is why business like this get away with literal man slaughter?

        Sure, they are big employers, but do you think that matters the family of the victims?

        If the shitwhole had been fined into bankruptcy a void would have been left in the tourist industry and either the park would get a new owner or a new park would have been made.

            Which should have always been there

            they were fined $3.6m.

            Which is nothing. The scum bag company got $3 million dollars of tax payers money that covered most of the fine.

            https://www.couriermail.com.au/news/queensland/qld-politics/…

            The money was meant for koalas, but they spent it on a roller coaster.

    I still believe the introduction of these cheap local passes in the late 2000s ruined the place.

    1) Place became bogan central.
    2) Cheap tickets means no expansion, in fact shrinking over the years.
    3) Got to wonder about safety of a theme park operating under what seems to be a loss leader pricing strategy.

    • aja12 on 04/10/2023 - 09:39
      +6

      1) Place became bogan central.

      Mate, that’s Gold Coast/Logan/Brisbane in general, not just the them parks (for the record, I live in the area before anyone gets offended).

      2) Cheap tickets means no expansion, in fact shrinking over the years.

      The locals passes target at people that otherwise would rarely, or never, visit the theme parks due to the high cost, the lack of novelty of the parks, and the fact that they are not on in the area on a holiday spending money.

      3) Got to wonder about safety of a theme park operating under what seems to be a loss leader pricing strategy.

      Theme parks operating in Queensland are now probably some of the most risk adverse, safest operating parks in the world. Just a shame that it took a tragedy to get there.

      • PainToad on 04/10/2023 - 09:45

        Exactly. Going to a theme park use to be an exciting event once a year or so. Now parents treat them like day care centres and let their kids loose every weekend.

    • FredAstair on 04/10/2023 - 09:46

      I believe it may have also brought about several positive aspects. These lower-priced passes have made the park more accessible to a wider range of people, fostering inclusivity and community engagement.

      The increased foot traffic from local residents has not only strengthened the park's ties with the community but also had a positive economic impact, benefiting surrounding businesses and creating job opportunities. Moreover, the affordability has contributed to a family-friendly environment, encouraging families to visit more frequently and improving the park's overall reputation. In sum, while there may be concerns about revenue, the introduction of cheap local passes has brought about a range of positive outcomes that have enriched the park's appeal and success.

      In addition to the positive aspects, it's worth noting that while the annual pass price may have dropped, there have been significant increases in various fees and charges within the park, as well as the cost of food and drinks. These price hikes can offset the affordability of the pass itself, potentially impacting visitors' overall expenses.

      It's important for park management to strike a balance between affordable entry options and the pricing of in-park services to ensure that the overall cost remains reasonable for visitors. Achieving this balance can help maintain the positive aspects of affordability while addressing concerns about increased expenses within the park.

      Even at the previous price of $149/year, that equates to less than $3/week a child to send, as you put it, 'bogan kids' to a supervised environment rather than these local 'bogans' wandering around the neighbourhood looking for things to entertain themselves.
