I went on Air when I went with College in Summer 2005 for the end of the course trip. I was one of the the best rides I have ever been on it was very smooth and ran on rails. I would like to go on it again one day. Brilliant.
i have been to alton towers bout 15 times and only ONCE have i been on this and it hasn't broken down at all!! every time i go on it like every other ride breaks down!!
In my opinion, this is a great first ride to do at the park. It's relatively tame and very relaxing. I say the final coaster to graduate to would be Nemesis. That is easily the most intense ride in the park, and let's not forget that it is arguably the best coaster in the UK, so I definitely recommend saving it for last.
Now that`s something britain should shout about wow i think this is great a realy good coaster & thats something i have not seen done before. This disigner is brilliant. Well done.
John told me that it is to allow ordinary members of the general public to experience sensations outside the scope of the normal everyday world in which they live that makes his rides what he wants them to be. Great man
Went to alton towers this year with my brother and we qued 4 this ride with fastpass, then it broke down. So left q and went on nemesis, then went got let back in fastpass q. Love this ride! It so smooth! :)
Hahah i love this ride !!! cant wait im goin back to Alton Towers for the secind time in september with school and i have GOT to go on this ride again !! :D
If you ever go to Alton Towers you HAVE to go on this ride, I can't explain how amazing it is, deffo my favourite ride there:D btw don't worry about falling out because you feel perfectly safe:D
The name 'Air' does so much to get you pumped for the ride. What ignorant fuqboi decides to rename and re-theme it, and take away much of what made the ride so cool? Galactica? Really? Screw that! It'll always be Air in my heart.
In my opinion, this is my ultimate rollercoaster! Nemesis is really cool too, but i love air, i have tons of air merchandise at home, be prepared, my room is full of twists and turns! Hehehe, lol!
Last time I went to AT I went on Air 5 times, Nemmy 4 times, Blade 3 times, the Carousel, RMT, Rapids, Flume, Toadstool, Carousel... Air's still my favourite, but the intensity of Nemmy is hard to beat. I hope it stays at AT forever :)
I queued for an hour to ride this last weekend!!!!!! Never been on a Roller-coaster before, so can't really compare it to anything else. But it was amazing....even if i did get myself in a right tiz!! Shame it was all over in a matter of seconds though.
omg i was scared when i got on it, its amazing trust me, you cant even feel the twists. Its really fast but so amazing, i wish i could have gone back on, but the queue was too long and we dint have time :/ go on it, you'll love it.
Good old John Wardley, being there for us in the Blue Peter rollercoaster editions with Nemesis, Air and Oblivion. I'm surprised a Thirteen one hasn't been done yet.
@samyfist yeahh manta looks awesome!!! this looks alright but when ur on it its absolutely amazing! u feel so weightless! there is soo much airtime in it, its my favorite and its quite a chilled relaxed ride!
Went on this today with my 82 year-old mother, twice!
This is the best time of year to go - late April - reasonable weather, no queues!
Very fun smooth ride.
Not overly Intense, but that's shy I like it
DarrellPeel why not shy
Ikr it feels like flying
It's my favourite ride at Alton Towers. So exhilarating! It's such a wonderful feeling.
That bit of moon Safari at 2:07 really brought me back! Wow!

Air is my very favourite ride! Cant wait to go later this week!
Alton Towers : Let's make money and retheme this!
Us : U W0T M8
+Luke B i think it was more
"Lets theme it"
Air had no real theme. Plus the VR makes it a new experience.
+CoasterGuy air was themed around flying and to feel like free
+Luke B And galactica is themed around flying higher.
That was my reaction omg 😂
I'd probably become a worker at Alton Towers and rip out every single VR pouch and transmitter given the opportunity.
I actually remember watching this on telly, making me feel old lol
Just walking around Alton Towers gives you the BEST thrill ever! and the music is an added bonus to give you the best day ever!
I have been on air 12 times and can;t wait to go on it again
IM GOING ON SUNDAY AND I CANT WAIT ANOTHER SECOND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Best ride at Alton Towers. Proves that you don't have to be faster and higher to be a great roller coaster, just really well advanced.
I went on it, It was amazing!
Alton towers has to be one of the best theme parks ever! :D
God I miss Air
Take off the head set on galactica
They let u if u ask btw
Callum C Galactica is air.
i have been to alton towers bout 15 times and only ONCE have i been on this and it hasn't broken down at all!!

I'm going to alton towers on friday, and that looks terrifying! :P
It was awsome ! I went years ago I think they should make another one !
The name 'Air' does so much to get you pumped for the ride. What ignorant fuqboi decides to rename and re-theme it, and take away much of what made the ride so cool? Galactica? Really? Screw that! It'll always be Air in my heart.
Loved this ride! so much fun!
Air is more relaxing than most coasters. Nemesis is a beast of a ride. I went on both.
I passed out giggling on this ride :D
that ride is insane!
Went on this and loved it !
oh my god i LOVED air.
it isnt scary its just exciting !
i sat in the same place the bluepeter guy is sitting xD
it's fun, even when it breaks down on you at the location at 3:57 and you just stop XD
that looks like a load of fun
This guy was great, he really let John speak on the ride unlike many others
i went today... i hate rollercoasters and never go on them. but this was brilliant! go on it and you wont look back :)

My fave roller-coaster ever!!
John Wardley is like a kid that always dreamed of making a rollercoaster and Alton towers make it happen for him. John being proud 4:04
I waited an hour and a half for the ride and it was worth it even though I had been on it before :D
So the rides call air and the background music is Moon Safari by Air yep i see what they've done there!!
Last time I went to AT I went on Air 5 times, Nemmy 4 times, Blade 3 times, the Carousel, RMT, Rapids, Flume, Toadstool, Carousel...
Air's still my favourite, but the intensity of Nemmy is hard to beat. I hope it stays at AT forever :)

Doesn't go upside down just makes you feel like your lying down your back!!
Teigan Yeah that's why it's awesome 😂
Teigan Because you are lying on your back.
You are technically upside down at each drop.
