We were the next people in line and Carly (a staff member) made me and my kid go to the back of the next line even though there were many seats available and no one in front of us. The line took over 30 minutes even though wait time was 15 minutes. We didn’t end up riding due to the poor staff, not sure if I would EVER ride this again, waste of time and energy. This was the last ride me and my kid were supposed to do but it ruined my entire evening, extremely bad service.
