That depends where you ski, what type of terrain the specific lift services and how many lifts there are.The capacity might be the same based on the lifts never stopping, but the FG lifts stop way more than the HS lifts. Loading and unloading is vastly different.
Skiing a lot at Blue mt and both the HS detachable are constantly stopping and doing so imo more than the two twin sister fixed doubles servicing the right third of the resort.
last time there just a couple weeks I was actually noting the stoppages and I recall barely making one full loop without seeing a stoppage while skiing down , or while on the line or while in the air. Its constant (on crowded days)
On another note,...the 6pack is often the longest lift lines of them all. And the most stoppages. But hence the small overcrowded zoos of this area.
But on another note I easily recall the torture of 40 minute lift lines being a weekend norm back in the old days at Hunter.
