2013 TPR Tour Questionnaire is out!

Hmmmm..

Mini-UK is closest and easiest. but..but ...hehe..

And I spend two days at Thorpe park this summer (love you Swarm)

When is the pay-up date for each trip?

(Winter is´nt as fun as summer when you like amusementparks and stuff )

^Final details with payment amounts, dates, and more will be released next week with the trip questionnaires.

Texas/Midwest looks fantastic. I am beyond ready to send in deposits for this trip.

Elissa, will you guys be doing the TPR trip phone in Q&A like last year? I think that worked out well.

^Great question!

We've been debating between doing an online chat, online chat + call in, or just a giant Q&A on the site. Details soon!

Once again I'm in for Midwest/Texas Hope to see most of you there!

^Can't wait to have you and your dad join us again! That trip is shaping up to be the most amazing lineup coaster-wise for a trip ever. It also won't hurt to add in City Museum and some other fun surprises we have planned!

Will there still be a selection of Bash events separate from trips going on in 2013 (similar to BGW bash in 2011, I think)?

^It depends. Depends on date, schedule, what the park wants, etc.

I could see us doing 2-3 Bash events total next year. They're a lot of work, and we prefer to focus on our Trip Participants.

How many days would the Texas/Midwest tour spend at Cedar Point?

 

 

1.5 Days included (one day with Fast Lane), option to add on one additional full day.

With an add on 2.5 days? For the people doing this add on, will there be transport to the airport as well?

Correct. 2.5 days at Cedar Point (with Hotel ERT, TPR ERT, and Fast Lane) if you do the add on.

There will be transport to the airport from Cedar Point on the normal departure day and on the add on departure day. On the 2010 trip, more people did the add on than didn't!

Sounds logical you have to enjoy cedar point so that 0.5 day is the departure day, right? BTW: Great idea of this add on!

I think that would be the day we did the multi-hour drive to Chicago for Great America. Could be wrong though.

^^^Thats a whole extra day of Maverick

That is correct. There is nothing planned on the departure day except leaving to the airport. Most flights out of Cleveland are in the morning or early afternoon.

You indicated you're narrowing things down a bit and neither the Taiwan nor the Singapore & Malaysia Tours were listed. Is it safe to assume they won't occur in 2013? (I apologize if you answered this question earlier and I overlooked it.)

Just so I can start thinking about travel (don't worry, not buying anything... just thinking) does the Midwest trip start or end in Cleveland?

Edit: v Thanks!

The Midwest tour ends at Cleveland.

Where will the Tex-MW tour start at? I'm guessing San Antonio?

We did not have enough committed interest to offer Taiwan / Singapore & Malaysia as full TPR Trips next year. Based on that, there is a chance if I have a little bit of interest that we may offer Taiwan as more of an Invite only (similar to Dubai) before the Japan Trip. If you're interested, please contact me via email.

Correct.

Elissa, I have been planning on doing a US coaster tour with a friend of mine who lives in the UK. He's not a member (yet) and with the great experience of my two trips with you in the past (EC2008 and MA2010), I have been able to convince him to do our trip with TPR if spots are available, of course. However, how would it work for 2 people who want to travel together in case there's a wait-list like on previous trips ? Would we be "paired" on the wait list ? My concern would be if I'm "accepted" on the trip and my friend isn't, that could be problematic. hope you get the idea, as I dunno how to express it better in English

^That's not an issue. When you sign up with someone you're both locked in together. Both with the higher status person. So Club TPR Members and Past Trip Participants going with someone with none of those things still have the high priority over new/non members.

Perfect. Thanks for the fast answer. I'm sure I get the time off, being a teacher. Now just one "detail" to adjust: my friend's time off, but it seems feasible, so far. Fingers crossed for those Rocky Mountain creations...

^Final details with payment amounts, dates, and more will be released next week with the trip questionnaires.

Will we also be able to put deposits down next week? --- I suppose I am excited about the potential TPR Texas/Midwest Trip.
