When Port Aventura World rides break down
Closures by the hour they start
951 breakdowns · late starts excluded
Breakdowns cluster at 10pm, with 235 of the 944 closures that started before the park's final hour beginning then - so the ride you most want is safest earlier in the day, not saved for last. A further 2,221 rides simply were not running at opening, which is a late start rather than a fault and is counted separately. The other 7 closures start in the 11pm hour, when the park is shutting - those are rides finishing their day, not failing, so they are left out here.
Port Aventura World downtime day by day
Share of ride hours lost
30 Aug to 9 Oct
The worst day in this window was 6 Oct, when 75.1% of the park's ride hours were lost and 84 of 87 rides went down at some point.
Uptime is the share of the park's own operating minutes a ride was running, recorded every few minutes and averaged over 41 days. A closure counts as one breakdown when it lasts ten minutes or more; shorter stops still count towards time lost, because a two-minute reset is not a fault. Touching closure windows are merged into one closure - a ride shut all day arrives from the feed as that day sliced into the sampling interval, and counting each slice would report one bad day as a hundred breakdowns.
