Attraction Journey to Atlantis

[Mr. Porkchop]

An issue that I started noticing last year is a rough transition from the second turntable to the final drop. Looking back at POVs from the past three years, it appears that the transition was smooth in 2021, then started getting rough in 2022. In 2023, the transition got rough to the point to where the guest were wondering if it was normal. It appears to not be as rough now, though it is still worse than it was in 2022.

2021 - Smooth transition:

Hopefully SWSA is able to fix this transition in the feature. Does someone know what might be causing this issue?

Still very upsetting that it’s not completely fixed. It’s now that time that it will be running every operating day until winter time approaches. By then, it will get worst again. What’s also upsetting is the water feature that has been non-existent for four to five years on the drop.

I'm surprised that they haven't fixed the water feature. Unless the pipes were leaking, they would just need to replace a water pump.

I mean, if my visit means anything, there’s a foot off the gas / distracted driving feel to the park. Their animal shows were top notch, but their rides were iffy, except Tidal Surge and Texas Stingray, which are relatively new.

I’m not sure if it’s a budget constraint or lack of interest in maintenance and improvement.

The first turntable no longer does a full rotation (most likely done to boost dispatches). The transition from the second turntable to the drop was smooth. Hopefully it doesn't get bad again.
