Italian theme park adopts 'virtual queuing'

Wednesday March 11th , 2009

Italian Theme Park Mirabilandia has adopted a virtual queuing system from Lo-Q, it has emerged.

Lo-Q announced today (March 11th) that the park – one of the largest in the country – will be using the VQ2020 virtual queue management system this season.

After renting a handheld device, park guests are able to make a reservation which places them in a virtual queue – eliminating the need for physical waiting times.

The installation is expected to be completed in April in time for the busy Easter period, which may interest those with property in Italy.

Mr. Claudio Bertozzi, chief executive officer of Mirabilandia, said: "We're very proud to be the first Park in Italy – and one of the first ones in Europe – to offer our visitors an electronic reservation service to have access to rides without having to wait in the line."

Plans to construct a bridge linking mainland Italy with the island of Sicily have recently been revived by the country's government.
