the fast pass is 100 percent worth it. There are so many people at USJ and so little rides that the average wait was 60 minutes. However with headout I was unable to pick a time slot so I didn't get access to super nintendo world until later But we were still able todo alot because of the fast pass.

Absolutely CRAZY experience for me & my wife! Enjoyed ALL the popular rides on my day to USJ, thanks to the express pass backdrop which got us skip the line access to rides that had the highest waiting time For all other rides, we used the single entry queue which got me inside the ride within 10-25 minutes per ride. One of the best days of our lives.

Harry Potter and Mario Card were super fun and unforgettable. The virtual ride on Spy ex Family was also great. The laser gun in Minions was unfortunately very disappointing.

Is the Universal Studios Japan™ Express Pass 4 worth it?

1/4

Shorter wait times

The Express Pass 4 grants priority access to four of USJ's most popular rides. This means significantly reduced wait times, allowing you to experience the park's highlights without hours of queuing. On most days, Express Pass holders can enjoy up to 50% to 75% reduction in average wait times compared to the standby lines.

Flexibility

Unlike some all-encompassing Express Passes, the Pass 4 offers a curated selection of rides. This lets you focus on the attractions that truly excite you, skipping lines for the ones you prioritize. You’ll leave having ticked off your bucket list rides in record time!

Budget-friendlier

Compared to higher-tier Express Pass options that cover a wider range of rides, the Pass 4 delivers targeted value. It's a fantastic option if you’re budget-conscious and want to prioritize specific rides without breaking the bank.

Variety of choice

Unlike other Express Passes, the USJ Express Pass 4 has several options: Backdrop, Variety & Thrills, and Fun & Thrills. These passes provide a unique mix and match of rides. So, if you’ve got your eye on a couple of rides, you can pick one that includes assortments that best suits your interests. Talk about personalization.

Things to know before booking your Universal Studios Japan™ Express Pass 4

  • If you have a single day at USJ and want to cover the park's most popular rides, the Express Pass 4 is a game-changer. Why waste 2-3 hours waiting in line when you can simply get more out of a single visit?
  • The Pass 4 has 3 types each focusing on a curated selection of rides, including crowd favorites like The Flying Dinosaur and Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey™ and other rides. Check the specific inclusions and choose the correct USJ Fast Pass 4 type before booking to ensure they align with your must-do experiences. 
  • If you like thrill rides, look for a pass including The Flying Dinosaur and Hollywood Dream or JAW™ – The Ride. For family-oriented fun, go for passes with attractions like Despicable Me Minion Mayhem, Detective Conan 4-D Live Show, or Mario Kart: Koopa's Challenge.
  • While the Express Pass 4 doesn't skip lines for everything, it frees you up for strategic planning. Use saved time to tackle popular shows or grab a bite without missing out on key rides.
  • The USJ Express Pass 4 does come at a higher cost compared to a regular admission ticket, the time saved waiting in line can be invaluable. Imagine sleeping in, arriving later, and still experiencing the park's highlights without long waits.
  • Popular attractions like Super Nintendo World™ and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™  often have limited daily entry due to high demand. The Express Pass 4 grants guaranteed access, ensuring you don't miss out on these highly sought-after experiences.
  • Express Pass 4 offers a balance between cost and flexibility. It's generally cheaper than Express Pass 7 but provides fewer selections. The USJ Fast Pass 4 only covers four designated rides. While it offers flexibility in selection with its types, it might not be ideal if you have a long list of must-do rides. Consider the Express Pass 7 if you want more extensive coverage.
  • Don't forget the Express Pass 4 requires a separate purchase on top of your regular admission ticket.
  • Remember, Express Pass 4 doesn't bypass single-rider lines.
