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.

Guaranteed Entry to Super Nintendo World™ & The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™

Super Nintendo World™ and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ are smash hits at USJ, but entry to these zones can be restricted due to high demand. The USJ Express Pass 7 secures access to these zones with designated timed entry slots, ensuring you can experience all that’s there to offer within these areas. This guarantees a well-rounded USJ experience.

Things to know before booking your Universal Studios Japan™ Express Pass 7

  • The USJ Express Pass 7 complements a regular admission ticket. A regular admission ticket grants access to all rides, shows, and attractions at USJ, but you'll have to wait in line for each. The Express Pass 7 is an add-on that allows priority access to a specific selection of rides, significantly reducing wait times.
  • While the USJ Express 7 significantly reduces wait times, there may still be short queues for security checks or boarding procedures.
  • USJ offers different Express Pass tiers with varying levels of access. The Express Pass 7 focuses on 7 specific rides, while other tiers might offer access to a wider or more limited range of attractions. Choose the tier that best suits your must-do rides.
  • Express Passes sell out like hotcakes, especially during peak seasons and weekends. Booking yours in advance alongside your park tickets is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
  • The Express Pass 7 often requires selecting preferred time slots for specific rides. While this ensures priority access, it restricts some flexibility in your park itinerary. Take wait time trends into account and plan your day strategically around these time slots to get the most out of your visits.
  • Not all rides at USJ are included in the Universal Studios Express Pass 7. Popular seasonal attractions might be excluded.
